I think the difference is in the original Japanese versions things like Birdo and Vivian were kind of played up for comedy. Here it's being treated like serious business.I dunno, we've been over this before, its in the original game, you were only ever playing a censored version without it.
The moment they announced this remake I knew they'd do this, but I'm still finding myself disappointed. Now even a childhood favorite of mine can’t be brought up without troons shitting up the place.View attachment 6007139

Still waiting for the FFVII remake as well.And the “fans” who have been demanding this remake for years? They’ll treat it like gold and act like nothing’s wrong,
It's a Bridget situation, which for the longest time had absolutely nothing to do with them "realizing they were a girl." They were an otoko no ko. A more accurate move would have been to make Vivian say they were a guy who just loves girly things.I think the difference is in the original Japanese versions things like Birdo and Vivian were kind of played up for comedy.

But Vivian was a guy in the original version. You must be thinking of the censored American release.I don’t think I’ve ever hated Nintendo more than I do now. Every time I want to talk about one of my all-time favorite games, I have to clarify that I’m talking about the original and not the terrible new version. Every time I see anything about one of my favorite original characters from said game, troons will turn her into a status symbol for highly destructive and divisive political ideologies. Kids and teens who have listened to older fans refuse to shut up about how good Paper Mario’s writing used to be will play this remake and wonder how anyone could like this mess of a script. And the “fans” who have been demanding this remake for years? They’ll treat it like gold and act like nothing’s wrong, because they finally got their remake, quality be damned. They’ll treat this monkey’s paw like a gift from God and praise it for years to come.
They could have just taken the original game, made it widescreen, did a lazy AI upscale like with Mario 3D All Stars, made a few rom hack-tier quality of life improvements, and slapped on a $60 price tag and it would have at least been good enough. All they had to do was not go out of their way to fuck it up, and they couldn’t even do that.
And despite all of that, Nintendo is still nowhere near as bad as Sony or Microsoft. Modern video games suck.

You're getting baited.They're claiming that "Vivian was always trans, therefore the new translation is accurate" when in actuality, it is as you said
To be fair, this is more accurate to the Japanese original of Vivian being an otokonoko, or “male daughter”. I mean let’s be real, troons are not and will never be real women so in a way, this is an acknowledgment of that. For that reason alone, I’m willing to let it slide despite the clear troon pandering.View attachment 6007139

It's not, because those types know they're males. They typically do not use language such as "I realized I was a girl."To be fair, this is more accurate to the Japanese original of Vivian being an otokonoko, or “male daughter”.

Oh GOD DAMNIT they really can’t leave anything alone. Can this even be saved with mods at this point?Removing Mario’s salute
I’m speaking in technicality. People instinctively know that troons are not real women, it’s just that most play along if they don’t want to lose friends or worse. The long-term implications are concerning, but I interpret it as Blackrock forcing Nintendo’s hands rather than a sincere belief in the troon propaganda.It's not, because those types know they're males.

Of course not. Absolutely everything must appeal to “a global audience”, which really just means what lines businessmen pockets. AKA lifelong mega corporations and consoomers with no responsibility and who hold far-left beliefs that they push at every opportunity.Oh GOD DAMNIT they really can’t leave anything alone.

I understand but I am saying that the new version is not at all more accurate, it's just inaccurate in a different way. Otokonokos are generally not troons, so they are again localizing Vivian into something they are not.I’m speaking in technicality.
