She'll catch her death of cold in that outfit. Tsk.
Marvelous covers up its latest RPG
Since seeing it in action, we’ve been keeping a keen eye on Marvelous Interactive’s upcoming Wii RPG Arc Rise Fantasia. With the talents of director Hiroyuki Kanemaru and composer Yasunori Mitsuda, this Wii-exclusive title is shaping up to be a fine role-player.
However, putting the impressive staff roster aside for one moment, we have to admit that one of the reasons (or should that be two?) we’ve taken such a shine to this particular game is the ‘assets’ of female character Lesley.
Early screenshots have shown her to be a woman that holds little value in restrictive items of clothing, as you can see:
However, the game has recently been rated CERO-A in its native Japan, which essentially means it’s suitable for everyone. And you know what that means – that underboob has to go.
Here’s the new (and only slightly more modestly dressed) Lesley:
While it’s hardly as if she’s dressed like a nun, we’re somewhat sad to see those gravity-defying orbs shackled in such a manner, but at least there’s less chance of ‘wardrobe malfunctions’ during those intense combat sequences.

At least we still have under-cleavage... but it's still not the same. I like the original version better.

Censorship is epic failure.

BOO! Under-boob is my favorite kind of partial-boob. Next would be side-boob. But it looks like we're getting neither!

I actually prefer the latter one, though I still want more clothing on her!
In fact, I am tired of seeing half-naked women in RPGs and just about any game!
Bby the way, that is not 100%, but more like 90%.

I think that games shouldn't be censored at all. It blocks a developer's creative flow.

(Advanced apologies) ...I guess they didn't want any trousers to Rise to a Arc.....
Anyway, knowing EU censors (No more heroes anybody?), she will be wearing a poncho by the time it reaches our shores

@17 & 18. I was joking, and I'm sure everyone else here was too. :rolleyes:
@18. There's these things called "periods" and "commas". You should use 'em sometime.
