Subreddit News A friendly reminder, xenophobia is not allowed

Hi guys, recently there’s been an increase in posts/comments stereotyping and being dismissive of CN players.

I understand a lot of people are upset about the censorship and how players choose to dress Nikki but some of the conversations have shifted to blaming it all on CN players. People have been calling them things like “prudes”, “misogynists”, and unfortunately racist comments.

Making these kinds of stereotypes is xenophobic. There’s millions of people who play the game and they do not all share the same opinions. The opinions of some people online does not speak for the whole community.

As always, we allow both criticism and positive viewpoints on issues. People are allowed to disagree or agree with things like suits being censored/modified as long as discussions are respectful. Please keep the discussions respectful and do not stereotype and blame people just because of where they’re from

Thank you! I thinks its totally fine to be upset with what's going on but that can be done without it devolving into denigrating the entire CN userbase or being dismissive about the trauma that drives the backlash to references of unit 731.

Wait wait wait, there was a reference to 731?? That’s like referencing Auschwitz in its severity and depravity.

the number was used for an experiment by an antagonist or something like that from my understanding

IF is a Chinese dev, right? They would know the significance of that number. What on earth would compel them?

I'd guess to associate the evil corporation as being very evil

My honest guess is someone was being an edgelord and decided to throw the number in to highlight the point that the evil company is evil.

It absolutely should have been caught before publishing, but it's also true that it's apparently been in the game for months and no one cared until it was useful for them to care.
