So hey this game is totally exactly the kind of RPG I love, and all it took to decide whether I would buy it is looking around in the menus and getting into 1 fight. I'm so glad I saved that $30 eShop credit from SMT4 and Awakening a few months ago.

I'm not in favor of censorship. That said, outfits one and three actually look better in the American version to me. I'd have left the second one alone.

First one looks better in the western version for sure, second one looks shit both ways. The real loss though is clearly Ringabels costume. Wonder why gamers don't mention that one as often, one might come to the conclusion, that cencorship is only a problem when aplied to slutty female costumes after all, hmm...

I can live without Captain Underpants in my game. But censorship is still uncool.

I agree that censorship sucks, but I do not see anything to be angry about here. If you're playing this game to see polygonal teenagers in sexy outfits you are probably in the wrong place. Weird that Nintendo is still doing stuff like this though. Maybe they just want to avoid putting "suggestive themes" on the ESRB box?

Well didn't Dead of Alive: 3D Titties get banned from non-released in Skandinavian countries and an Australian M-rating for underage breast physics? Probably made Nintendo cautious with those costumes on 15 year olds, so more fabric and aging them 3 years just to be sure.

I'm generally against the Japanese tradition of having grossly underaged expert characters in their fiction, so making them a few years older is fine by me.

I beat the first boss by having it kill everyone except my Swordmaster. It then ran out of MP and I countered it to death using Nothing Ventured. Luckily I had just enough Potions to live through that. I anticipate much enjoyment from this game.

I beat the demo and had a great time. Really looking forward to getting this. Ninja is still overpowered as fuck but it's an FF game so I didn't expect otherwise. Absolutely love the Red Mage's rose motif and it looks like that class gets some really interesting and powerful support abilities. The final 2 bosses were really fun to fight, because instead of waiting for my Farmville game to finish for better equipment, I just changed around my jobs and abilities to deal with them instead. And even after doing that they weren't exactly a cakewalk.

I never really read any of the ancillary stuff that tells how old a character is, what day their birthday falls on, their blood type, etc, so it always comes as a surprise to learn that certain (usually female) characters are underage. I don't know why Japan has a fetish for jailbait, but it's mildly disturbing.

Well, there's always that age of consent thing, which is actually between 14-16 in most countries around the world.

Holy shit, I just looked this up. The Japanese age of consent is 13? That explains A LOT.
