Bad FFVIIRemake news... operation Save Tifa from Corneo will be nerfed.

Nomura caved in to the people who agree with the whiner of Sarkeesia... Operation Rescue Tifa from Corneo is nerfed "to appeal to modern sensitivity".

This will probably mean that the Cloud will no longer be gangbanged in the hot tub. Of course people are dismissing this like it's no big deal it's not part of the main story, but it is...  since it allows you to obtain some of the best accessories for the disguise, you kind of need to have Cloud be The Chosen One by Corneo. They'll probably just eliminate the gangbang part and just make it like weird groping. It makes me wonder what will happen to the WuTai side quest since Corneo tries to marry a 16 year old girl.

Tifa's breasts, Wall market Mission, possibly wutai mission what else will they censor to appease whiners who don't play the games? I'm guessing Scarlett of Shinra will get censored as well... what about the whole Hojo's implied zoophilia?

This censorship all it does is watering down the original ;changing the context and it's borderline insulting.

It's how N-word Jim and I-word Joe became Jm and Joe in the Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn books.
I'm refraining to use the actual terms since they are considered "offensive" and I don't want to get my blog flagged for "hate speech"... by perennial offended slacktivists. The context in which those descriptors are used on the characters, is that's so sad. Then was really racist and that offensive language was common in white people, including our protagonists.

The same thing applies to those controversial scenes in Final Fantasy 7. We have a male protagonist that is raped... but he blocks the memory and pushes forward to save his friend, all part of Cloud's self. His constant denial of reality and using the Zack facade as means to cope with his flaws amd weaknesses. This event is never referenced again, but it fits with how Cloud's broken personality deals with traumatic events deals with traumatic events (Nibelheim, the escape, etc.) Those events are there proverbial chinks in Cloud's armor. Toning them down does a disservice to the story.
