NEWS: DmC: Devil May Cry Definitive Edition's Launch Trailer Streamed

I heard reports that the Definitive edition of DmC is censored of some of the more 'problematic' content like sexism to make it more PC. While I don't care for the game, it's worth pointing out for those that do.

Put the original Dante design as a playable character and I'll buy it. Otherwise, I'm not the least bit interested.

I mean it's the same game but just at a higher resolution and all the dlc granted I already beat the game and got the platinum trophy including Vergil's descent 100% so for me this is a no-buy because I still have the data on it so it would hold no meaning for me to have it again just to get the same trophies.

As a side note I consider myself as one of the few who had no overall complaints against the game even with the aesthetic and cosmetic changes to Dante, his background, and the environment.

It wasn't censored. Please learn how to use words. No one, no governmental body, no company, no whatever forced them to change anything. Stop trying to be Fox News with your clearly biased views of people's views on the "sexism" debate and manipulation of words. Ninja Theory themselves thought for whatever reason some of the lines were in poor taste and went back and changed it. It was thier own choice. No censorship or whatever hot button word you chose to warp the message.

It also is'nt the same game as they've made fixes and added new mechanics. Sure these mechanics such as manual lock on should have been there since the begining but whatever.

Still, I probably won't get this. It was a perfectly fine game, a decent action game even. It just lacks something that other DMC games have and yes the story was crap without the self aware humor of 4 which at least helped that games stupid story.

Censorship doesn't have to be done by a government body.

Games are censored all the time without a law requiring them to be so. Nintendo removing a bikini shot from Fire Emblem Awakening is still the game being censored. An anime dub which has content removed is no less called censored. If you're focusing on censorship being done specifically by the government, you're missing the forest for the trees..

Stating a company imposed self-censoring is an issue of semantics either way. Considering how big of an issue sex is in Americna gaming right now, it's not farfetched at all to suggust they could have censored this out of peer pressure from groups or simply trying to earn brownie points.
