Dispatch’s release on Nintendo platforms today was poised to be another testament to AdHoc’s tremendous success with the point-and-click superhero workplace comedy, but news of a platform-specific difference has overshadowed much of the excitement for fans hoping to play the episodic series on-the-go. Instead of celebrating the release, fans are launching campaigns against Dispatch’s censorship, returning their purchases, or refraining from playing it altogether.
Normally, Dispatch contains nudity and sexually explicit scenes involving its gang of ex-villains. AdHoc allows players to toggle sexual content like this off on most platforms. Curiously, however, the newly-released Switch version automatically depicts censored versions of these scenes. There’s no option to turn the setting off.
AdHoc confirmed the censorship to Eurogamer, but noted that the overall experience would still be the same for Switch players.
Mind you, Nintendo is cool with putting Doom and Duke Nukem on the Switch.
Female nipple. Male nipples are a-ok. 🙄
Twitch also has that rule for streamers.
To be fair, there would be a loooot of nipples on Twitch otherwise. It’d be nipple sea.
Still stupid, though.
Back when bash.org was around: Person 1: Person 2 has so little game he could fall into a barrel of nipples and come out sucking his thumb. Person 2: The concept of a barrel of nipples confuses and frightens me.
I’ve heard “if it were raining titties, I’d open my mouth and catch a dick.”
That would be a sight worth seeing.
Reminds me of the days before Bailey Jay transitioned and got in trouble for showing her breasts while waiting in line at Comicon and then protested “but I’m a boy.”
It was a meme when I transitioned to post top less pics until they got censored. This was back when free the nipple was a bigger force though
And encouraged, as featured in Nintendo’s own Super Mario Odyssey!
