Which is the GOG version? Seems GOG doesn't always offer other enhanced versions of games that Steam does. I'd rather play the DC version without censorship. Even though I bought the EE version on GOG, haven't installed yet and may get the EE, DC version from Steam for that reason. Are you listening GOG?

And listen they did! (A couple of years ago, actually ;) ).
It's just the naming that is a bit confusing, Gog version is uncensored as well (installs as "Enhanced Edition Director's Cut", don't know why it doesn't specify that on the store page).

IIRC, Director's Cut was a North America thing only, since all international releases were already uncensored all along, so no need for any additional versions after EE. That might be why the tag gets left off of the name on the store page.

They don't need to use the words "Director's Cut," but I think they should make clear on the Store page whether the version is censored or not.

I wanted to know that too. I have a boxed copy that I had to import from Europe when it first came out. I paid a lot of extra money for shipping just because I can't stand censored video games.

I might buy the GOG version too (even though I still have an uncensored vanilla boxed copy, which can be patched to uncensored EE version) just for the sake of convenience. But I would never consider buying the GOG version if I wasn't first certain that it is uncensored.

I'm sure myself and the original poster are not the only ones who were/are unclear about if the GOG version is censored or not. That's why the GOG store should clear up any confusion by directly stating that it is uncensored. Maybe not everyone who needs to know the answer is going to bother to look for it or ask a question about it on the forum.

It is most definitely uncensored (as are the bonus materials you can download).
But don't buy it again! You should be able to redeem the product key from your retail edition on this page to get a free GOG copy. :)
