Hi,
I am from Saudi Arabia and I was wondering if the game is censored if I buy it directly from GOG.

One of the many great things about GoG is, NOTHING here is censored! Rejoice! the no-DRM revolution has already began.

So nope, if you buy it directly from GoG it should not be censored, but i guess depending on your government.
Thanks man
I am downloading it now. I will update after I run it to see if it is the censored version or not

I'm totally and completely sure there is no censored version of Witcher, even if you look for it.
There is a censored version of the game, as stated here:

Yes there is, if you buy it in Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia or United Arab Emirates. If, on the other hand, you buy a digital copy from GOG, then it's not censored.

I wouldn't know about third-party retailers, I'm just talking about GoG and even Steam.

Well aside from censored versions of Fallout and censored version of Witcher 2, which I hope GOG stopped selling and unified. I can look a bit more, but DRM has nothing to do with neither regional locking nor censorship.

Wait, GoG sold censored versions of Wither 2? When did that happen?

Here you go. I'm sure there's more proper news on the topic, but I can't really be arsed to look currently.

Oh yeah, I remember reading something similar in the past, thanks for the link. Guess i can't blame them. In this day and age everyone has an opinion on what's good for everyone else. Pleasing the masses, that's all they are doing.

That's not what you said. You said: " I'm totally and completely sure there is no censored version of Witcher, even if you look for it." That is pretty emphatic.

Past, present and future...got any concept of it? They stopped selling censored versions of Witcher, unless bought in other stores. That's what the CD Projekt Red forum says.

I'd wish OP would reply, really curious to see if he got any censoring in his version.

Stop trying to wheedle out of what you said. It's been quoted for you, lest you forgot. Integrity. Got any concept of it?

I really don't know what's my fault here, giving someone false information? Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty?
I've yet to see anyone on these forums complain that GoG is selling censored versions (apart from that Witcher 2 hit and miss). -- Again, i have't read every piece of info oh here, but i would think something this controversial would surface on it's own.

And here is my proof, maybe you'll get off my back :

Quote:
Everyone who buys Witcher 3 on GOG.com (or redeems the nVidia promo code) will get the uncensored version of the game.
