#Pokemon #UltraAdventure -- For context, they took out the FeMC's quote about Lillie's bed smelling nice, and they took out the emotional/romantic scene on Exeggutor Island. Can't say if those were removed for the boy MC, though I have a sneaking suspicion they weren't.
Honestly I don't really blame Gamefreak for this, Japan is completely fucked for queer representation and Nintendo is probably breathing down their necks about it.
Still, another little exclusion that makes the game less engaging for me. Just something to keep in mind.
Ugh okay I have to talk about the Lusamine retcon some more; child abuse, Ultra Sun Moon Spoilers, neg Afficher plus
#Pokemon #UltraAdventure -- The game is making menacing Elite Four noises at me now, so I guess we're just taking the Lusamine Retcon at face value now unless it comes back during postgame.
I guess I'm just kind of disappointed. Lusamine's villainous arc was legit my favorite part of the original game, and the Necrozma stuff just can't compete in my mind. It was an actually solid message about fighting back against child abuse and now it's just... gone.
Not to mention how much gay shit they took out, but that's another thing entirely.
