    This reminds me of when Tommy Itagaki threw a fit over nude mods for Dead or Alive. “These characters are like my children!” If that’s how you treat your children, someone ought to call CPS.

    I mean it’s not surprising that Capcom is complaining about people modding nude characters into their games, but this still reads like some Capcom executive just learned what mods were and what they could do.

    I choose to believe that this is the first time some Capcom executive became aware of rule34 content, and organized a series of awkward high level meetings about it where the rest of the staff all had to pretend like they haven’t known about the existence of lewd fan content from age 13 on.

    It’s a pretty amusing head cannon.

    The only thing offensive to public order and morals is prudish bullshit religious ideology.

    Nothing about the naked human form is immoral.

      Sir, I will make you aware of your error. Children (innocent!) may be exposed to the naked breast from birth to age 1.5, and then again from age 18 until death. Any exposure to the unaugmented protuberances of the female form during which the victim has witnessed the earth revolve around the sun more than twice but fewer than one score times has been scientifically proven to corrupt the youth and chasten the modest!

      Sure, but there’s a time and a place where nudity is appropriate, which I think is the point they’re trying to make.

        Sort of. They present a straw man about tournaments and other public events, and while that’s a fair point, those can (and probably already do) have rules about it.

        You should always have the option to use a mod in your home. If companies don’t want to support running a game with mods, that should be the first thing support asks.

          If we weren’t talking about an inherently competitive multiplayer game, I’d agree.

      Female characters are heavily sexualised and objectified though. And what media does it is not helping with the issue happening in real life as well.
