In DMC5 there’s a few powerful enemies that are possessing classic characters from the series’ past – and in this instance upon one boss being downed by Dante series mainstay Trish comes tumbling out of its bleeding body half-naked.Dante then picks up Trish and lays her back down – and in the process there’s a clear shot of her rear. In the Xbox One and PC versions plus the Japanese PS4 version there’s no censorship – but on PS4, an aggressive lens flare from Dante’s motorcycle headlamp reduces the amount the player can see.What’s unclear is why this only applies to one version in Western territories – but given the circumstances it seems fair to assume it might be something the Western arms of Sony requested to be changed. Devil may cry 5 (ps4 amazon). The PS4 version gets the censorship treatment, however – but only in the West, with the Japanese PS4 version remaining uncensored.To talk a little about the scene, we’re now going to get into Spoiler Territory for the scene, which takes place several missions into DMC5. Don’t read on if you’re spoiler-averse.Here’s a video of the multiple versions of the scene comparing them – which, given the presence of a bare bottom, is probably NSFW depending on where you work. This video, provided by youtube channel ‘Naughty Gaming’ (indeed) showcases exactly what happens.

KWIQly Named for its’ power (kW) intelligence (IQ) and speed: kWIQly identifies opportunities for energy efficiency improvements or automated demand response.
KWIQly’s method is to pass building meter data from portfolios or estates through its pattern recognition algorithms, so that an energy manager does not need to view and interpret hundreds or 1000’s of charts, but can be guided to opportunity automatically. Since most buildings routinely waste energy, it makes sense when embarking on Demand Response initiatives to provide services to first address base load inefficiencies, before more elegant dynamic pricing control models are evaluated. However, it is clearly optimal to address the two issues in one pass while not confusing the two. Our typical clients are Utilities, Energy Brokers, Facility Managers, Multiple Outlet Enterprise, and increasingly meter data management platforms who add embed our capabilities via API solutions.For more information, please visit×.
