nondeplumage: I hate half the stuff you put in the game, but I'm a total fan, so pander to me.

And way to use your kids for your benefit there. That's outstanding.

BrianX: I don't have kids, yet. But when I do, I wouldn't mind having certain precautions just in case I want to play an 'Adult' game. That is another straw-man argument you thrust out there. Don't you think that ADULTS have kids?! So why not 'pander' to the a good majority of your adult audience that do have kids and are sensitive to what you want them exposed to at a young age and place a simple option to remove the profanity and sex scenes? I mean, isn't the idea of options behind games these days? If a game designer can add a bajillion options for graphics settings, surely they can add an option in the game to remove the more 'Adult' crap. By the way, I hope that you can one day grasp that Adult content and mature themes are completely different things and what goes for Adult these days is sensationalist crap that is lazily added on for sales.

If you REALLY like the Witcher's adult content so much (profanity and tasteless sex scenes and misogyny), why don't you download the awesomely adult Leisure Suit Larry game that just came out to RAVE reviews! Or, better yet, download the Playboy Mansion game and get yo freak on!

I repent that I ever implied that Lehti was a porno-freak (sorry, 'twas just teasing), that description fits you to a 'T.'
I can see why there are pissing contests. you ever point to that one person in a group and that is the person that ruins the fun for everyone else. this is brianx. i think that the mentality to change m rated witcher to a pg 13 experience is not very mature of him. The game is meant for mature people and yes there are even adults (brianx as proof) that are not mature and can't handle these types of games. The fact that there is too much profanity in these games for him as compared to less profanity is still having the same impact. A nude scene to be erased by a mod just spells immaturity to most. I thank the lord everyday that he is the minority within the videogame field or else all we will play is pg games. what a world that would be.

The Leisure Suit Larry games are not for men who hate females considering women in those games are portrayed as goddesses and treat Larry like sh*t. And I find it sad when a man uses the word "misogyny"... A word that is used(more like abused) by women who hate men.

Dear developer,

Please redesign your game according to my vision which is infinitely better than your vision.
Everybody knows Elves never swear, to represent them as foul mouthed terrorists in your game is just wrong.
After you're done changing the entire game to my vastly superior vision and sensibilities I will be available to tell you how your next game is supposed to be.

Kind regards,

Brian.

When my daughter is old enough to understand what is going on while I play games, her bedtime is dropping to 6:30.

Sorry Brian, but I doubt adults with kids are a big factor in M rated title production. Like you said, M rated content isn't always that mature. You just have to take it or start your own mod community that caters to the conservative taste.

Because CDP RED guys don't "pander", they make games.

No.

Ingame content is not a renderable layer that can be turned on/off or adjusted with a slider.

I think the hope is mutual.

BrianX: (...) what goes for Adult these days is sensationalist crap that is lazily added on for sales.
And here we were, complaining how developers are afraid to include mature themes in games, in fear of getting too high ratings and dealing with regional censorship... not to mention the tendency to target a larger audience.
The scales have truly fallen from my eyes -_-".

There's nothing quite like insulting classic adventure games. Of course - your ad personam doesn't end there...

That's more like it. Crude, extreme and personal...

And this sentence (as well as the general tone and the whole reason for this thread) nicely shows what kind of a twist you're trying to put here. OBVIOUSLY "porn" is something so despicable that it's an enormous insult to imply someone has interest in it and as such we can easily put "freak" next to it.

BBL. Ironically - there's a seminar on cultural differences I have to attend...

Sounds more like a thing for a moder to do rather then CDP. It would be a lot of trouble to go to in terms or time and money for very little return; among things they would have to find voice actors again.

If Planescape:Torment was done today it would have T&A. Just saying. ;)

Hehehehehehehe.

I just imagined someone as Yarpen Zigrin swearing "By Bilbo's Blasted Boxers". It perfectly fits in this world. :-D

BrianX: I have a feeling that the 'Adult' stuff in the Witcher was added/tacked on later as an afterthought and probably because the RPG genre is niche, they needed a selling point. And what sells better than sex and profanity?

Vestin: You've just managed to cram an extraordinary amount of bullshit into two sentences, well done. You either didn't bother reading what others have already stated multiple times or simply are a troll...
Your point made no sense. And throwing out the word Troll is a nice shot, try again.

BrianX: Hello GOG,

I was wondering if Witcher 1 and 2 might be available in the near future as PG or PG-13 censored titles. I like the 1st game, but its difficult for me to continue playing it because of the silly profanity and sexual stuff. I understand the need for there to be 'adult' games, but I honestly don't see the point of all the profanity and sexuality really adding anything to the combat, RPG elements, and overall story. Its as if they were tacked on to make it more 'adult.'

Again, the 1st game is great as an RPG with its combat, creatures, setting (oh wow, the setting!), and everything else, but it is hard for me to stomach the silly profanity and sexual overtones.

My main question is this: can you guys make a patch that takes out the profanity and sexual stuff? I live in the USA, so I'm not sure if there is a version that eliminates those elements.

Thanks!

bossonova: I can't believe there are still pansies like you around. Still buying games like portal and tetris cause it doesn't offend the eyes and ears. the witcher is a mature rated game for the language and nudity in the game. If you have a problem with that then just don't buy it you fuckin pansie. your an adult now so its ok to swear and watch soft porn. oh i found a website for a patch for the witcher.

It did in spades, it was just low resolution. Check out the concept artwork and stuff you can download here to see.

takezodunmer2005: Here's an idea, why not simply play the game with polish voice-overs with English subtitles instead of English voices (American accents destroy immersion anyways)

Also, Gog are not developers nor do they have contact with any video game developers, so they have absolutely no control over what type of content is in the game. Furthermore, even if they did I don't like the idea of the game content being changed because of people who buy mature-rated games and then complain about the nudity and foul language.

Thank CROM this game wasn't developed in America, or Australia for that matter!
Thats a good idea actually, thanks. But I had the subtitles on even with the English voiceovers and they still showed profanity. Maybe I should learn Polish just for the quests lol.
