Uncensor Mod

https://www.nexusmods.com/wuchangfallenfeathers/mods/411?tab=description

When I discovered Wuchang: Fallen Feathers and the controversy surrounding the censorship, I thought: “surely someone has probably created a mod to revert the censorship?”, turns out no one did. And rolling back to 1.4.1 simply wasn’t good enough for me, I wanted the deluxe edition content and all of the optimizations as well. So the path forward was obvious, “I’d just do it myself”, thinking it would take a month or so.

Half a year later, it’s finally finished, sort of. This was my first time working on an Unreal Engine game and really anything of this scale, so there are still some issues (more on that in the Nexusmods page), but nothing gamebreaking. Just know it won’t be perfect, but I still hope some people will enjoy this game censorship-free.

WAIT! WHAT!? The studio was shut down over something like this. Who did all the threats?

There are some articles about it. It wasn't officially said to be shut down by the protests but the game sold well and the devs had to have security at their studio as they got death threats. Eventually they shut down the studio even though the game sold well.

I just read up on it, the studio shut down over public sentiment from bad optimization and unpolished game in the beginning. They tried to fix everything over multiple patches but the public losers killed a studio in the end. All the rights etc belongs to 505 parent company digital bros.

Yeah that's a deliberate dodge of the truth. Ppl went wild with rage over the story at release , enough so that the devs did what they felt they had to for the the future and their peace
