      The infamous Scunthorpe problem strikes the Swedish version of Minecraft: PS4 Edition.

      I will not name any examples directly as it would register this post as profanity but here's a quick explanation:

      The Swedish translation of "The End" (and any similar features like endstone, etc) overlaps with an English curse-word. That triggers a false positive in the game's moderation which in turn censors out parts of loading screen messages that include those features. This is very jarring.

      To reproduce the issue:

      1. Start the newest version of Minecraft on PS4.
      2. Create any type of world.
      3. While waiting for it to load, read the loading screen information and wait for the censored sentences to show up.
