All right, so…we’re going to say right up front that if you read this and decide to proceed, that’s on you. If you make alterations to your game with this patch, you could corrupt your save data. Got it? Okay, ow read on.
It’s no secret that censorship from Nintendo on Japanese games has been met with criticism and in some cases, outright rage. This has happened to a number of games this year, including Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE, and one group of fans was so irate about the censorship that they dug into the game to literally create a patch that restores the original elements which were removed during localisation.
What exactly does this mean? Here are the notes of the “changelog for Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Reincarnation ver. 0.9.1.”:
- Reverted costumes back to Bikinis, also changing the menu icons back and their original names and descriptions.
- Completely redid Chapter 2 and a few other small files to return references to Gravure Modelling, this also uses the original voice files.
- Fixed any map changes relating to pictures in dungeons that were changed.
- Swapped the English files out for Japanese versions for retranslated files.
- Healing points no longer come in envelopes.
- Changed Profiles to reflect the character’s real ages and change back references to Gravure Modeling.
- Reverted any censored prerendered Cutscene files.
Search for the patch and apply at your own discretion. We’re only the bearers of news, so you need to make your own decision on this one.
