Australian classification board M = ESRB T for Teen, PEGI 16 or 12, USK 12 or 16.
ESRB M rating = Aussie MA15+ most of the time and R18+
Primrose.
Yup. An American M is a banned game in Aussie lol
No one is freaking out about the news.
And it will be PEGI 16 in Europe, though it depends what they see on the game it may become 18.
Out of all the posts in the thread, I would describe the tone of yours as closest to "freaking out" lol
ignore. it says that for everything.
Aussie M is not US M
you should add context for what "M" even means in Australia. Expect lots of Americans to come here thinking it's the same as ESRB's M when it's actually T and lower..Rated M for mature themes, sexual references and violence.
I still don't understand why years later. Atelier of all things receiving that rating just makes zero sense.
It got an R18+ rating lol
And so a meme was born.
There's one scene in particular that I can think of as a reason.
The Octopus picture? It's in the original PG rated release. Even then, it's relatively tame, and I'm not seeing why it shouldn't be an M, or MA tops.
Hmm...just saw that Atelier Rorona got an 18 rating as well, so it must have been something different. Maybe they didn't like Astrid? Is there no explanation for these ratings?
not unless he wants to be a dancer!
if I remember correctly, there was a drunk groping scene (not scene, but the audio didnt leave much to the imagination) that led to the rating
