The upcoming Lost Art Promotion (http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/The_Lost_Art_Promotion) is a joke, we will still get badly censored cards until this game eventually gets cancelled.

Draconus297 Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 To be fair, Monster Reborn and the Exodia pieces were censored on the grounds that they contained foreign religious symbols, which YGO has included ever more of in the TCG, starting with actual gods and angels and expanding from there. Barrel Dragon was censored on the grounds of "children with guns", which the TCG still isn't budging on, if Rokkets and Magical Musketeers are anything to go by. No one expected any different.

Icy Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 I don't get it? Guns for Sci-fi guns is a perfectly (and I prefer these to the original anyway) acceptable censor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goodfusion Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 This is amazing. Des Barrel Dragon is my favourite of the new cards from Legendary Duelists Ancient Millenium. Keeping the theme (LASER BEAMS) consistent between this and original Barrel Dragon's censored art is a very good thing IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABC Gun Posted February 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 The point is that this country loves to censor anything that makes them slightly insecure and unsettled by what they see. Look at Twitter and Facebook, even YouTube and now Twitch; before you could do as you wished on those sites just so long as you followed their rules (which were fairly laxed) and if you didn't break federal laws on speech as in making direct threats of violence. Now, if you say anything at all (literally), you lose your account, your partnerships, privileges, and I've gotten to a point in my life where I am fed up with most forms of censorship, and yes I know that Yu-Gi-Oh! has been doing this since day one.All I'm asking for is "alternate" art cards for Barrel Dragon and Desperado Barrel Dragon with the OCG artwork, if we can somehow get that in the TCG then I'll be fine.

If you want this, then why are you complaining about the Lost Art Promotion? Something like that is the best possible place to get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something like that is the best possible place to get it. I'm complaining because I don't just want that set (I do), but I want no more censorship in Yu-Gi-Oh! period, and not just for card artwork.

Draconus297 Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 That's never happening. As long as Yu-Gi-Oh is marketed to kids, violent content is going to be censored in America because we think kids are stupid. *shrug* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yui Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 But sure, the dragon that still looks cool is the one with bullshit censorship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 That's never happening. As long as Yu-Gi-Oh is marketed to kids, violent content is going to be censored internationally because we think kids are stupid. *shrug*Sounds 'bout right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABC Gun Posted February 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 That's what you get for believing rumors on the Internet. The reason I brought it up was because it came from a Japanese Twitter account that someone else on Twitter directed me too that in the past had credible info about what Konami was doing with Yu-Gi-Oh!, and at one point this Twitter accurately said we were getting HERO support and a new Neos monster, and then we got Elemental HERO Honest Neos. Twitter took the account down for harassment, and I guess Twitter banning accounts is almost as bad in Japan as it is here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
