The best of the next dress up game of 2021 Love Nikki, Nikki shines, is its complicated weirdness. The clothes are pretty too—glitter dress with tulip petal cup dresses, crowns with pearl knot like frosted cakes, a pale pastel color Sanrio cooperation—but I find the game most appealing in its weird RPG elements, like guns which you never shoot, only equipping style points during its core gameplay, style battle where you go up against unplayable characters by wearing a better outfit.
Nikki shinesThe official Disney co-production (currently Taiwan servers only) encapsulates the game’s mystery by actually disavowing these guns, however, immediately taking off the page. suffer when you try to pair them with a firearm.
No guns allowed
The partnership includes Beauty and the Beast The heroine Belle and Cinderella’s yellow ranunculus dress puffy silver evening gown, along with related accessories, such as a red rose in a glass case for Belle to hold and a midnight ribbon for Cinderella to wear as a necklace.
As fun themed as they are, all of these skins are completely incompatible with Nikki shinesmultiple gun options (a sniper riflesharp small pistol, you name it). I imagine most people are buying Disney costumes in gacha game for Disney’s sake, not with the goal of making their characters ready for brutal war. But I’ve always suspected that Cinderella’s outfit wouldn’t look complete without the fearsome machine gun.
Disney won’t allow it, though.
Nikki YouTuber and TikToker play games vivi brought me to the phenomenon in a recent TikTok, demonstrating how giving your character a gun while she’s wearing a Disney costume will restore her to her default outfit state but keep the gun in hand.
At first, Vivi thought it was standard practice for Nikki the costumes cooperated to prevent the use of guns, so she didn’t think too much about it at first, she told me via email. But then she tried adding a gun to the Sanrio outfit and it worked.
Okay, some guns are allowed
Vivi said: “I realize Disney’s censorship rules are stricter than other collaborations. “I was surprised because I knew that weapons censorship was not an issue in Love Nikki” Nikki shinespredecessor of the word 2015.
Vivi also demonstrated this on TikTok. “There was a loophole,” she says happily in the video, “I think they forgot to set the same rules for Love Nikki.” Then she showed us how Love NikkiCinderella, and frozen of Elsa and Anna can handle any type of gun, including rifles, machine guns that overflow with a magazine, and not one but two Glocks—one for each delicate hand.
“Half of Elsa’s problem in frozen will be solved with a push,” said one popular comment.
It’s true, and it’s great Love Nikki Encourage Elsa to command her kingdom skillfully. However, Vivi, who lives in America but plays the role Nikki games on Asian servers, said she found “censorship” awkward, inconsistent even in this more liberal Disney collaboration.
“Love Nikki censored the middle of Little Mermaid,” she told me. “Ariel’s outfit on the Chinese server is like wearing a bikini instead of a tank top in Global server.”
“I was also surprised when I first saw this,” she continued. “But at the same time, I was just watching Aladdin in action live and noticed that Jasmine’s midsection was covered. Disney also removed the kiss scene between Jasmine and Jafar. Disney’s message to girls is a lot different now than it was three decades ago.”
Both Disney and Nikki Papergames developer replied Kotakurequested comment in time for publication, but, actually Disney recently tried (controversial) not controversial, never opt in disturbance or represent the value of an atom of savoury if it can be avoided. Sometimes, like pulling Jasmine stay away from a forced kiss, that could be a good thing. And Disney is nonetheless a children’s brand, but its decisions mostly seem to be driven by self-interest rather than a moral responsibility for the brains of young children.
I don’t expect anything else from a super corporation. But I will win if I can win one, and Love NikkiThe game’s flaw ensures it can appreciate the uncanny power of fashion despite Disney’s all-seeing eye.
It allows fans to imagine princesses as brutal and perfectly styled as they want. Vivi agrees; “I can have Rapunzel, Cinderella, Ariel, Elsa, Anna, Mickey and Minnie formal suits with a Glock,” she said. “It wasn’t canon, but now because Love Nikkiit can.”
