I decided to copy paste that here since I thought they had a point. This topic had lots of upvotes and agreements in another subreddit.

I'm not the one that wrote this but besides the tone of it that is a bit extreme, there's nothing wrong with it. Hopefully, developers will turn away from this approach on things before it's too late. Censorship of nudity and gore are one of the few things that can make D2 fans really angry, considering D2 was a Mature rated game and D2R is also going to be rated Mature.Įspecially after the WC3: Reforged fiasco, Blizzard should have stayed away from things like this to begin with. Blizzard is walking a dangerous path here and a great care must be taken.

However, after reading the questions in Blizzard's official survey for the game, I'm getting a bit worried.

I like how D2R looks so far and what the developers say about it but this censorship and less action blood - certainly not plentiful and bright like the original's - are one of my few complaints. Check the Butcher's room and D2's Andariel room first and then compare them to the new Andariel's room in D2R where the bodies were deliberately made less noticable. It's a cheap tactic from game developers to hide gory stuff. Them cheeks were a wonder to look at while cutting her down."īesides what ixKOOPAxi wrote, I must add, Assassin also lost her underboob and the impaled bodies and mutilated corpses in Andariel's room are covered in dark blood to hide them from popping out and being noticable. Say what you want, but the lack of censorship was as much a part of Diablo 2’s success as was killing demons.įor the love of Tyrael, please show off Andy’s butt. The Paladin needs to visit the Druid’s hair dresser. The Necromancer looks alright, but older. The Sorceress turned into a thicc latina. The Barbarian looks like a 58 year old retired wrestler with low testosterone. Sorry folks, but this game is looking more and more censored with each video/announcement.Īlso, the Amazon looks like an old man. Sorceress lost her underboob, has briefs on under her skirt, and has a longer skirt. Amazon now has a full kilt on, hiding her thighs and side-butt. From what we’ve seen so far: Andariel and the Dark Rangers have their butts covered. It seems as though Blizzard has already succumbed. "Diablo 2 developer Matt Uelmen: “My only strong opinion is that it needs to … and not succumb to the temptation to make a censored version.” You can find the original post in the sub at this link: I'm copy pasting a post by another Reddit user named ixKOOPAxi and then I'm going to add more examples before commenting on it.
