1. Islam is not a race, so everyone with a functional brain should stop using the word "racist". Thanks.
2. I do not expect Muslims who play a game like Witcher 2 to be offended by those carpets. Since in the first place they already chose to play a game that is full of nudity and harsh language, which probably means they are not that easy to offend. Now if an Imam from Saudi-Arabia would be forced to play Witcher 2 and find those carpets, then I am pretty sure he would be pissed off. On the other hand a catholic priest wouldn't like it aswell, if there are typical catholic signs used on a carpet in a BROTHEL.
So I do not consider exchanging those carpets as a big symbol of censorship or a symbol of pleasing any muslim demands. CDP just didn't want to put anything inside a brothel that could be linked to any religion. No big deal. So why the big discussion?
