Give me a break. (Gaming)

Sure, but this isn’t really all that comparable. This isn’t “rock and roll is evil!” As far as I understand, this wasn’t even in reaction to any outside criticism of those jokes. This was just the creators want to put out a new version of an old game and recognizing that they think some of the writing was in poor taste so they changed it.
I think calling it censorship or unethical is patently ridiculous
Edit: And I did look up the changed jokes. I’ll admit, I don’t understand most of the changes, but one was a sex change joke that wasn’t funny the first time, but does make light of that situation in general and pokes fun at it for no benefit at all.
