So I noticed a weird "censorship" fight going on with the recent SVC Chaos release. The store art has been altered (don't like it, but won't die from it), but the interesting thing to me is the Looney Tunes style disclaimer they added to the beginning of the game. It's basically "this is a product of its time presented unaltered, and we wash our hands of anything offensive you might find in it".

But there's nothing particularly offensive in SVC Chaos that anybody can think of. It's not like Neo Geo Battle Coliseum that has Mudman, who wouldn't go over very well today (Were they thinking of NGBC maybe?). Even the people who ported the game aren't sure what this screen is for. The only thing I can think of is the Heaven and Hell stuff with a white-haired old God figure.

So my question is, to anybody who might really know SVC Chaos well, down to the character endings and all... can you think of anything in the game that might warrant this disclaimer? I'm genuinely just curious and would like to avoid the outrage-grifter nonsense that's on the other socials.
