Hey guys, the Skyfang Brigade were so offensive that they're now Fur Hire.


Recommended Posts

Names aren't always changed based on a "need". This wasn't a censorship, they did so because they probably figured it was something more fun that players can enjoy. That's probably why they did the changes to PSCT as well.

 

This is hardly a big deal, and nowhere near this kind of reaction.

 

This is really just another topic titled with asinine claims that you don't actually know over something that's not worth this kind of attention. It's just a fun play with text and names, just learn to enjoy things for what they are and you'll probably a live a happier life overall.

Also iirc, Skyfang Brigade was a fan translated name anyway, so moaning about a fanslation name being changed is more-or-less moot.

Regarding the PSCT alteration: I swear did that on purpose for the joke, but it's harmless fun on their part.

I've been around this game since 2002, and at this point I can't tell what is censorship and what is a "joke". I have an intense hatred for censorship and sometimes yes I will get carried away, but I'm not taking back what I've posted.

But in this case nothing was really censored.

This actually opens the door to similar solutions for PSCT. For instance, we could possibly now say something like: "Djinn" monster(s) "of Rituals" in PSCT instead of trying to work around the fact that each of the Djinn of Rituals have an noun breaking up their TCG names.

 

Ok good point, but I don't count on Konami to make a good decisions, I count on them to sell me cardboard.

I'm not hiring these furry prostitutes and neither should you.

 

HAHAHA LOL. At least "Skyfang Brigade" sounds decent, and not like a furry escort service.

The text order is probably just a joke that Konami decided to do on the proxies because of the naming; we'll see if they literally changed it and we got a new thing for grammar OR will be printed with proper grammar when released.

 

I mean, I like Skyfangs as a name better (even if it's fan translated from the Japanese one), but can deal with Fur Hire being the official English name (accuracy aside for some of the members). Well, it's not like we have any say in the matter otherwise.

That being said, leaving this here as reminder to remain on topic (which at the moment, supposedly new wording if Konami is serious about the changes; less on ABC's distaste for the changes here). If thread derails, it'll be locked and warnings handed out accordingly.

The order swap for the text is not on the way of any functionality. If it is harmless, I think it's a good thing they went for it for some humor.

It'a a clever pun although this boss in question is more reptile-like so it breaks the pattern for the name to be a perfect fit.

The concept idea for Djinn text posted above seems doable too. 

 

I wonder if Farfa will bring this up about the Konami Furry Agenda topic at some point.

Uhh, Sleepy? He already did. There's a video he made titled " Konami thought we wouldn't notice" or something like that.

 

I know about the one with the Rescue Rabbit illuminati thumnail from when wiki was just suggesting the name change. It's the reason I mentioned it xD

Though the inverted text of [target "fur hire"] bits is new to me so I wonder if something else will come out of it.
