In case you had been frightened that Stellar Blade and its… properly, specific proclivities, can be censored in a roundabout way, you do not should be.
Stellar Blade is a little bit of a scorching button subject in the intervening time, largely as a result of its protagonist appears to be like like she’s sporting the tightest piece of clothes ever invented, displaying off sure rotund areas which can be fairly clearly designed to make the participant attractive as hell. You would possibly marvel then if the sport can be considerably censored, decreasing these trade staple jiggle physics to appease specific areas’ scores boards and the like. However, in a current tweet from the official Stellar Blade Twitter account, it seems the sport would be the similar irrespective of the place you play.
“Stella Blade affords the identical uncensored model in all international locations, together with the Japanese model,” reads a tweet from the account, the identical sentence additionally written in Japanese. This was paired with an, mockingly, censored picture of the sport displaying a closely pixelated scene with a big purple cross on high of it and textual content that reads “uncensored all international locations.” An actual win for the possible Stellar Blade followers on the market, I suppose.
The motion sport has, unsurprisingly, additionally drawn some comparisons with Sq. Enix and Yoko Taro’s 2017 title Nier: Automata. Taro even shared his ideas on Stellar Blade in a current interview alongside inventive director Hyung-Tae Kim and IGN, saying, “Stellar Blade is a extremely wonderful sport. I would say that it is a lot better than Nier: Automata… The graphics are fully next-gen high quality and the character design’s route is wonderful. The cool male characters and cute feminine characters distinctive to Mr. Kim’s model are actually interesting. Retailers in RPGs typically have a close-up shot of the shopkeeper, which I don’t like as a result of I believe it feels unnatural. Stellar Blade has a shot like that too, however the shopkeeper was so cute that I didn’t thoughts! Her cuteness felt extra necessary than any design decisions.”
Our personal Sherif lately tried out Stellar Blade with the sport’s current demo, and tried to determine why it feels so completely different from Sekiro, even when it borrows loads from it.
