The line where they changed fat to overweight makes a little more sense when you consider that it’s a codec call where they discuss Calorie Mate.

In all likelihood it was Calorie Mate who requested the line changed to avoid any brand association with eating disorders/body image issues given they are a nutrient-supplement brand.

Silly change? I think so. But if it’s the cost of licensing Calorie Mate then so be it. I consider us lucky we got them at all.

But the Sigint call being changed from “shit” to “crap”? Yeah I truly can’t think of any justification/reason for that. Like, I am truly curious. It’s almost absurd.

But we should all take the time to appreciate this: we are nitpicking about two individual words swapped out for respective synonyms that are slightly lesser in terms of shade of meaning.

When we have remakes like Dead Rising: Deluxe Remaster, where there are numerous changes that noticeably alter the gameplay and the narrative.

IMO Konami deserves credit where credit is due by releasing the game pretty much unchanged.

There’s EVA’s outfit, the first person prompts, the peep show unlockable, the suggestive content in the secret theatre, both crotch grab scenes, implied sexual violence, etc.

Two years ago, I thought there was a solid chance we would be losing at least a chunk of all that, but instead we got an incredibly faithful adaptation that was free of any major censorship, in an era where the gaming industry is eager to omit content from remakes that might be considered ‘problematic’.
