Censorship Was Final Fantasy VII censored at all I mean the content wasn t as strong as say Final Fantasy VIII s but I would imagine something was censored Plus it doesn t say anything about censorship on this page Could someone please answer to this Not that I recall It certainly wasn t censored as much as the older games were As I recall some language was censored some wasn t The word bastard appeared on various occasions but fuck and shit were censored recet indent Some words were censored some were not which ones seem arbitrary Only instance I could find of Fuck uncensored Computer Cid We have an emergency situation A mechanic is still in the engine section of the rocket Cid What Who is the little fuck Computer I don t know Activating the intercom in the engine section Cid Hey goddammit Who the s still in there Earliest instance of Shit Shinra Manager I m not give in to violence and I m not giving you my seat either Tifa Barret Barret You lucky Cloud So what are we gon na do now Barret Shit The hell you so calm about You bustin up my rhythm In total Fuck is said uncensored once Shit is said uncensored 12 times ass is said 15 times sometimes occuring as Jackass Damn is said 68 times and I couldn t find any occurances of Bastard Censored words appear approx 33 times My version must be different The fuck is censored and the comment with Barret the last editor quoted the first word was uncensored though it had an apostrophe stuck in the middle making it shi t I noted a lot of uncensored ass and shit though and after playing FFX and FFXII for so long going back and playing FFVII I was a little surprised by the language In fact it s the only Fantasy RPG I ve ever played with uncensored profanity But yes it was at least partially censored Nevertheless unless we get concrete primary sourcing from an interview or whatever we can t include this in the article er Well the box says it s rated teen for mild language and violence But I m not sure of any primary sources that would even deal with this particular issue Beyond a mention that there is some uncensored language I really don t think this type of info belongs in an encyclopedia And even the slight mention is iffy to me Well it s the first Final Fantasy to come to America with any uncensored language But then again all the Final Fantasies to come to America in that period of time had to go through Nintendo of America s censorship guidelines of the time It might be worth noting at least in the discussion that the computer version was far more censored than the PSX version Almost every instance of shit was removed consistently with or similar characters Also certain important lines had their translations changed Back then you could get by with only skinned knees for example was changed to something likely more grammatically correct but weird to a long time player of the PSX version I have the PC version of FF7 and I recall a TON of Cid lines where there was censorship as well as ones form Barret They were all situations of anger though so it didn t impact the storyline much Actually there was some sexual censorship if I recall Slightly stretched underwear was changed to Therapeutic underwear Not sure why it s better but I m pretty sure they did it because they thought slightly stretched was sexually inappropriate The item is found in Tifa s dresser drawer during the nibelhiem flashback sequence Mentioning Midgar s future During the epilogue that follows the ruins of Midgar are shown five hundred years later While the landscape had once been desolate due to Shinra s operations it is now a land of lush greenery This sentence should be removed as it is trivial unnecessary and uhhh too minor for mention and there is no explanation for this scene NEWL
