    Is the Xbox version's wild chat censorship a bug or is it working as intended?

    Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this. I couldn't find an existing thread on this topic.

    The Xbox version is subject to much stricter chat filtering/censorship and there seems to be no way to turn it off. I have the in-game profanity filter turned off and I have all message filtering options within the Xbox itself set to "unfiltered". Yet, the game's chat log is still doing crazy things like turning the word "class" into "cl???" and turning "Thanalan" into "Th????an".

    Other platforms are not subject to this. All signs point to this being the result of Microsoft's meddling. But, I haven't been able to confirm since discussions on this seem to be far more sparse than I would think. Does anyone know if this is a bug that Microsoft and/or Square have acknowledged or is this just how the Xbox version is intended to be and we're stuck with it forever?

    Here's a screenshot I took during the beta. But, the issue is still present in the full release:
