James175: You are turning your game into nothing more than a porn game that objectifies women and adds fuel to the growing rape culture.

phaolo: Your standards in games:
- murder -> that's cool! :D
- sex -> shame on you! :O
Sounds like he must work at the FCC?

Always amazed at how sex on American TV is sometimes enough to start whole crusades (aka Janet's tit during the Super Bowl) but kill, beat, shoot, stab, punch, batter, or even disintegrate whomever you want... cause THAT is A-Ok.

No wonder this country is so fucked up. Puritans!

Gnostic: You may worry that on steam, but on GOG, do they ever censor stuff?

Wishbone: Yes, they did with The Witcher 2. Australians (and New Zealanders because IP geolocation lumps them in with the Australians) got a censored version of the game from here. As such, for The Witcher 3, this should be a real concern for the Australians and New Zealanders.
I stand corrected then. Are there other censored games on GOG?

Short answer: yup.
Oh noes! I can't play a game because it has bad words. Curse you, <name of developers>! You didn't have to use them at all. It just shows that you're nothing but doo doo heads. <optional religious condemnation>

gunsynd: Well this won't hit Australian coast.Looks like I will get it somewhere else...

deonast: Yes it's a worry with our censors. They might force them to change it so they wear underwear and do interpretive dance instead.
Yeah possibly, still won't get my money for censored version...

Tallima: "And for some, 40% nipple is just going to destroy them... "
This... this is pure gold. Like it belongs on a t-shirt or something.


And now imagine what 65% nipple is going to do to them! Or 33% tush.

On the bright side, it wouldn't take long until some good people create an unofficial patch. And since GOG is DRM-free, modding the game on your PC would cause no trouble at all.

Apparently at Gog Australia is censored unfortunately...

It would be nice if they gave buyers from Australia a choice to buy censored or uncensored games..
But the Law is the Law..

Ah crap I forgot about the censorship (how soon I forget) and pre-pre-ordered. I got caught out last time when this happened to as for the Witcher 2 I'd read the original posts that said no censorship anywhere, but hadn't noticed when that stance changed due to legal action and censoring with Namco Bandai (those bastards).

That's the problem our censors are crap and publishers now pre-censor just to ensure it releases with no issues and gets the largest market and no choice. I'm going to have to find one of those illegal cracks just to get the game I paid for. That sucks.

Ironically many people pushed for 18+ rating thinking it would fix the problem and in effect it really didn't except in one or two rare cases.

Well is it possible to show GOG our receipt and ask for an unofficial download link to the original version?

Anything uncensored cannot be sold in said Country,they would be breaking the Law..
They canno't sell uncensored games to Australia,if Australia has deemed that Law..

Look on the bright side.
Think how quick it will be to download the Australian version if they implement the 40% nipple rule.
The whole game will only be 2 gig.

Well mine is pre-ordered here but that won't change things I was stuck with the censored version of witcher 2 last time. In the end on a later gog sale I got a international version gifted to my account (bought from an account that wasn't Australian based). So in effect I bought witcher 2 twice to get the uncensored version :(

Rather get the uncensored version and cover the nipples with my hands (I won't peek, trust me)

You didn't need to do that.
The only difference in the Aus version of Witcher 2 was the removal of two dazip files from the cookedpc directory.
Those two small files were readily available on the net (even here at GOG)
