Another scamco classic. Remasters are never worth it.

Most people here were babies when the original game came out on a retro console

>>Removing the opening song in the western version of the game
it'd be fucking hilarious if they started doing the lame orchestral openings for the west again after breaking that habit almost 20 years ago
never change, scamco

>>718545164
It's confirmed.
The Western announcement video doesn't use the Japanese opening.

While the Japanese version has the vocals.

Enjoy your halfassed cucked game.

...vesperia remaster had its opening intact and that wasn't even considered an "anniversary title." this is fucking embarrassing and somehow the talesfags in the youtube comments will find a way to defend it, i used to admire their optimism and now it just saddens me

>>718545754
Vesperia was the big one people wanted. They've shat over Symphonia, the Graces f remaster had crossover costumes cut, these games have been butchered for years.

>>718544983 (OP)
shit game
gimme 2

>>718545227
Why do you think it won't be in the game because it isn't in that video?

>>718545135
p gud bait

>>718546028
If they couldn't license it for the video what makes you think they'd license it for the game?

>>718546028
The video is exactly the same as the Japanese version, why wouldn't it include the same music?

>>718545227
Glad to see the opening is intact. The Western version is irrelevant so not sure why you posted that one though.

What was actually removed?

>>718545971
exactly

>>718546317
They won't say because it gives them an excuse to broadstroke censor a lot thanks to "ethics"

>>718546395
The only thing I'm seeing is removing the pipe because current year Japan is currently cracking down on depictions of underage drug conception.
The rest seems vague.

>>718546395
bamco is woke company so it's easy to assume it will have any 'problematic' content censored.

>>718544983 (OP)
I expected a bundle not just part 1

They already censored mentions of lolicon and things around Elize for PS3 release. May as well remove the character altogether in 2025.

>>718545227
you telling me these motherfuckers had money to pay Bonnie Pink and BoA but not Ayumi Hamasaki for international licensing? really?

>>718544983 (OP)
Man this is really upsetting. I also heard that they apparently has made some changes to some lines in the game to "better suit modern day standards" or something. I am so SICK and TIRED of this shit, bros...

Don't worry, they made sure to add some awesome new features to make up for it

>>718549468
It's bamco. They probably gave the remaster dev team the budget of 200 hundred Ramen cpus and 10 bottles of sake

>>718549695
post where you found that or else you are just ragebaiting

>>718544983 (OP)
what outfits got removed?

>>718551219
Just licensed stuff

>>718545227
The way I look at it, on steam we can easily mod the correct opening back in. Its what I had to do for Zestiria years ago. wasn't ayumi like a mega pop star in japan?

>>718551219
Licensed shit, same as graces

You think they are gonna hire voice actors to go fix some lines, really?
