I've played the original Nier, which is one of my favourite games, don't like what they changed in the remake.

Kaine is intersex, without a soul (void), presents femme, was bullied relentlessly when she was young, and curses profusely bulborb-stare

That's in the original game too c: I played it in 2010, I prefer dad Nier and I didn't like the changes they did to the soundtrack.

It was the english ports that censored her being intersex right? amerikkka

In the new game? edited after mulling on it The original 360 and ps3 ports have it implied through the dialog but not stated outright.. I have only played the original. IIRC Kaines dream was better in the Japanese, but it did get localised with changes. The English swearing was improved in the localisation but it's been like 14 years.

I used a Kainé pfp for a long time.

I remembered the original versions having a very vague translation when it came to her identity or something. Im not sure were I got that from if it isn't the case.

You have to beat it 4 times for the full story but there is some changes to the original like the below scene I've put a spoiler.

spoilerinstead of her being beaten up by the bullies, they tear her clothes to see what's underneath and see her genitalia

The character did mean a lot to me so this change I can't be upset about.

It's very much implied and blatant in Kainés dream (one of her bullies shouts "what are you acting like a girl for, uh?"), and in another cutscene she mentions her body not being "normal" even before the shade possession.

I think I twigged what was going on from the dialog, went and checked out the Japanese differences and mixed up with my memory. But I knew outright she was intersex, I guess you could say it takes one to know one izutsumi-idea I didn't know prior to playing as I play and consume media completely blind. But once I'd beaten the game I did find that the media surrounding the game had a field day with it. I won't post what some media outlets highlighted about her, but I'm sure the freeze-gamer™️ had a field day.
