sharp299: I have some questions:
- why ban the game?,
- where is our rights, where is our freedom to buy and sell everiting we want?, -
-this game is really harm anyone on the real life(the game is M for mature(adults not for kids))?,
- why the people are so sillly to compare kill polygons, to real tragedies?
for exemple why if GOG one day the say: "well we can't sell Guilty Gear serie because there is a travesti on it (bridget)" or we can't sell diablo saga because the amazone, the barbarian and the assasin are scantily clad, oh the sucubus, oh the inmorality!.
- where is the line then?
"I not like hatred", but I had seen much more violence on mortal kombat (this game is really disgusting for me) but I will never buy it too, because is my right like the customers of MK or Hatred have the right to buy it if they want.
then why not ban the news on tv, the movies (I had seen a lot of exemples of violence on it), why you not ban the stupid human nature, why you not ban the first enmendement of your contry (every contry has one, the mine has one)!
many of my friends in germany, are waching this polemic and the only they can do a national faceplam... because they had suffer the censoreship in their flesh, I'm 100% sure they would give anything for stop their politician decide what they can see and what they can't. I'm sure because I know many of these criminals (sarcasm), they play immoral games like Doom(It can't be posible!!), Wolfenstein(oh god!!), or Call of duty 1, 2 or world at war (inmorals)!!.
if this game is not published then do not complain when your first amendment (of your contry whatever is called) is crushed, you give the right to your politicians, you publisher, your store, the right to decided for others...
you are decided for the hatred customers then hatred customers will decide for you one day.
Implying the game was banned, there is a difference between banning and refusal to sell. Since GOG refuses to sell games all the time for many reasons and in some cases see: Cat Lady, Xenonauts, Avernum: Escape from the pit. Stores don't usually "ban" stuff, they can be forced not to carry something due to a existing ban for example if a certain style of hunting rifle is considered illegal and is banned from sale in a country or state then those stores in that state or country can't sell it because it's banned.But typically if a store refuses to carry something it's not a ban, it's just a decision to not sell something since you can still get it elsewhere. - why ban the game?,

Also with that in mind, who said that GOG refused to sell the game based on it's premise. I personally doubt it's that given that we have MK, Postal, Cat Lady, ect. which are just as "bad" and in the case of Postal 1 the exact same thing or far worse. It's more likely it was passed on because it's a 20 dollar game that is while pretty nice looking for a indy game from a small team is horribly bland and repetitive for it's asking price.
Here is the game:
Go kill X people -> kill X people move on to next level Kill X people, lather rinse repeat with nothing to break up game play it's really repeative and yes there are other games that did or do that Doom but Doom for example is kill enemies but it's also explore the level and find the exit, in order to find the exit you have to find keys so there is something to break up the gameplay and also Doom is what 15 or so years old now and is sold for 5 to 6 dollars now? This is a game from 2015 and asking 20 dollars for a pretty looking, bland generic game.
So again it's more likely, not saying it is the case since we don't know as GOG isn't saying the why and the dev only gives a vauge response of "they said it was good but they can't sell it"
But the it's not worth the asking price is a more logical reason for them passing on the game then the controversial content since we have a game that is the exact same thing Postal and others that are far worse in gruesome content and not to mention Postal 1 only costs 6 dollars.
