Why did you even post this? Germany always has this type of censorship for games and SC in Germany has no blood.

I feel like zerg exploding into bright blue and neon green blood would be easier to see than the current dark red.

Being an Australian gamer is frustrating. The idea of no Diablo 3 or a Diablo 3 lite version (Sans-blood) is a nightmare. I really hope they finally take another look at the rating system and implement a higher age rating. It's ridiculous that we're still living under the belief that games are for 'kids' only.

Germany's government is stupid... thinking that forbidding aggressive games will SOLVE useless violence. Really, that is the most stupid thing ive ever heard. Movies are OK, but games are not?

haahahaha
movies are even closer to reality ....

damn ignorant people!


and btw, can't you just download your SC2 (non-censured copy from a site, then install it with your legal key?

I'll be buying the english uncut version anyways. The good thing about a cut German version is that they can use it for eSports broadcasts an therefore a bigger audience can be reached

And yes the censorship in Germany is pretty pathetic..

OMG, that sounds so awesome. It makes me want to censor my own version of TF2 (there has to be SOME way to turn on this option from the console, there just has to be)

In some ways it bugs me and in some ways I don't really care, the blood and all is neat but in some ways a little unnecessary, and who knows maybe there will be a future German flash who is only playing cause he could play at a younger age.

Yep, no swastikas are allowed. And of course, it's the same in the French version of games.

I'm guessing China will get the same copy as Germany then based on their recent event bans?

Btw. Wheres the option 'Good because this means they will not lower the gore on all versions just for more censored countries. That's the first thing I was worried about during all the hype of China blocking their events earlier this year.

Everyone read my post. Again, this is just the distributors overregulating themselves. No, swastikas are not generally banned in Germany. They are only banned in a political context. How would we enjoy The Inglourious Basterds otherwise? Unless a movie is plain nazi propaganda no one will object the use of swastikas. Same applies to computer games.

But since computer games are a fairly new media and their value as cultural works has yet to be accepted, the distributors will minimise their risk and rather butcher their own games.
