Description

(Versión española)

Fire Emblem Fates is the new game in the FE serie of roleplaying/strategy games, a serie famous in part because you can date and marry all playable characters in it. Half a year ago, Tumblr rised up in arms about the game because, acording to them, there was a scene where one lesbian character is given a drug to “cure” her from homosexuality. This, like most of what comes from Tumblr, is false. It’s a potion to help her with her problems dealing with women, since she usualy faints in their presence.

This was debunked almost inmediatly, but that didn’t stop Social justice warriors from spreading the misinformation and ask for censorship. Now, FE is close to it’s release date, and Nintendo has announced that they will be censoring the game because of the controversy. There’s also a rumor that they will remove entirely a game mode to avoid further attacks by the perpetualy ofended.

This is a problem that SJWs don’t understand. When we speak about how games are going to be censored and make jokes about Anita saying “we are not here to take your games away” we are not saying that’s shes literaly going to put a gun in someones head or that they are gonna impose laws to censor games (though theres people trying to do exactly that…). What we mean is that this people is creating a so hostile environment for developers that they will self censor their content for fear of controversy, attacks, media ignoring them or even blackmail (as we saw with the DoaX controversy when Play asia were told that if they tried to sell Doax they would talk to game companies in an attempt that they don’t sell their products through Play asia). The developers become afraid that sales will be going down, because they are bombarded with so many attacks and threats from a vocal minority at the same time that they think the gaming comunity is against them, when in reality, this people will not buy their game anyways, no matter the changes. Oh, and since i know that SJWs will be calling me an homophobe for the “dyke” joke, i ought to remember you that the protagonist of my main comic is a lesbian. And a minority, on top of that.

So I did a bit of studying and I found that main character does drug the lesbian character without her consent that makes her see men as women for a short amount of to help her get comfortable talking with other women. So while not as bad as some people thought it was, it's still pretty questionable. And while I don't support censorship, I can also see why some people on tumblr would get upset at the idea of someone drugging someone else with out their permission. Expecially when it changes who they find attractive. Their anger, while out of proportion, is understandable to anyone who actually listened to them instead of just mocking them. Which is the difference between SJWs and GamerGate. SJWs over react to things that are a problem, Gamergate overreacts to problems that usually don't actually exist.
