Now that Shadow Warrior Classic Complete is free, it's easy to smuggle across German borders to our beseiged brethren.

How about making it similar to other organisations by calling it Joueurs Sans Frontières as well? :)

That said, i really like that hashtag and it's content :)

Yes, I got the inspiration from Médecins Sans Frontières, nice that you picked up the reference.

I didn't know it was a real hashtag, but I'm not surprised. Just about anything of that sort one can think of usually exists somewhere on the internet. :)

It was kinda obvious where you got the idea from :)

No it is not a real one (yet) (afaik) - but we could make it at least a forum one to express the dissatisfaction with region locks. :)

Edit: Actually managed to squeeze that into my forum title :D

ElTerprise: There are currently three countries affected by region locks on GOG:
- Australia
- Japan
- Germany
Aren't there also a few countries that are limited to a censored version of the Witcher 3?

Thanks and thank you for the tag as well :D
The french one is unfortunately too long...

Possibly. But i have no information about that.

I know Australia is limited to an edited version Witcher 2 - might actually add that to the mix (as long as that is still valid).

mkess: Every title on this list will lead to pirating or buying on the less than safe sites.

I hope we can agree on that.
Agreed. It's like criminalizing marihuana.

Happy to do it!
I'm guessing the German would be one huge word, like Spielvolkenohneranden or some such. ;)

That looks like Google translation ^^ - the German term would be Spieler ohne Grenzen (shorter than your "German" suggestion but still too long ;).

It's me using my very limited German vocab. The actual German isn't bad at all, about the same overall as the English. Which makes sense, given their kinship.

Oh i see - my bad, sorry. Yes, German is not always complicated and long :)

I'm actually quite fond of German compound words. It's part of the charm of the language, and it just seems a very German thing to do. :)

Originally, I was going to make some reference to the gameshow "Spiel ohne Grenzen"/"Jeux sans Frontiéres"/"It's a Knockout" here, but then I found this song, so I'll just leave it at that.

Yes. It's great thing indeed. Allow veeeeeeeeeeery long words - which makes it unique. I like them too :)

Thank you for that. I wasn't aware of that :)
