Games change in dev all the time. Is it censorship because mario no longer wilhem screams in mario 64? Mario 3 had a level shown on the back of the box which was cut from the final game lol

Is there a current culture war about the Wilhelm scream.
Maybe it's because I'm a nerd but I've watched people have been fighting over this game for a little while now. There are even articles about how an uncensored version of the game is a bad thing... In the context of everything else, I understand why people are calling it out.

Everything is a culture war since the late 00s early 10s when the right started on its "culture war" breitbart doctrine shit. Its been a massive failure. In 2011 contards were counting their victory that woke hollywood was losing ticket sale and would soon stop with political propaganda. Turns out being whining about liberal bias or wokeness doesn't actually do anything and the right has been losing every cultural fight for over 10 years with the pendulum no closer to swinging back.

Rightoids spent years screaming that gay marriage would destroy society, and then when it became legal, nothing bad happened. Now when they are just as hysterical about other mundane shit, there's no way to take them seriously.

The culture war has been happening for a time (looking at you weather underground, lol)... Breitbart doctrine shit seems a bit much but you do you.
Yes, it's more annoying now that rightoids are using the modern leftoid tactics. They're both stupid, even if for different reasons.
When was the last time there was an effective leftoid boycott? How hard did they try with the harry potter game? Considering the effectiveness previous cancellations like the guy from Mozilla, ...
Budlite is kind of it's own thing but it's hard to say the pendulum isn't starting to swing back (personally the rightward peaks scare me
).
Whatever, here's my point. Leftoids spent social capital on this. Articles were written about how sexist it was, much sneering was had and some changes were made. I think this is an awful hill to die on and they should be called on it.

By culture war I mean the very specific modern one which was started by andrew breitbart around 2011 which was very directly focused on pop culture which is distinct from past events like the new left or the Reagan revolution

Even that is decades old, rightoids have been losing the pop culture war since the 40s

People are speculating that it was actually Sony that issued the changes and Shift Up isn't allowed to comment.

This is why the originals look carefully crafted and the censored versions look like someone's mom sewed in scrap pieces of fabric
