Dispatch’s Switch Censorship Is Awfully Silly

The game Dispatch covers all nudity with large black bars, from explicit scenes to brief accidental exposures. Surprisingly, these bars also appear when characters make obscene gestures, and even the intense sex scene in episode four is largely muted. It’s odd that a game featuring graphic violence and strong language would censor gestures and nipples. For instance, players can witness brutal murders and hear profanity-filled monologues without censorship, yet a simple hand signal or exposed nipple is blocked. It doesn’t make sense that you can say a curse word but not convey the same message with a gesture.
