This game is banned in Germany??

[CoredusK]

My mind is completely blown. I can't play this game in Germany?

I'm here just for an internship. Will I be able to simply install it when I'm back home?

Anything Nazi related is and will forever be banned in Germany. Just have to wait till you are back home to play it. Maybe a workaround in changing your location on your pc, however idk.

I'm a bit worried that, because I purchased and installed it here, I won't be able to play it even when home. Are you sure it'll work if I'm not in Germany?

Also, why was I allowed to buy it but not install it... Kind of a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ thing to do lol :) As is censorship.

Kinda weird to ban anything nazi related to be honested, I understand it's a touchy subject but covering the past does not change anything, I haven't played this yet, so I don't know if it contains anything too touchy, but I'm seriously considering buying it.

Try a VPN. It will change your location and if you change it to be out of germany it should work. If it doesn't work then you'll have to wait till you leave Germany.

This is a Steam Seal of the House. There are games that will not work no matter what you do, but Steam lets you to buy them with no warning at all.

Don't know if you've done your research on the game yet, but the Wolftenstein games aren't exactly like the WW2 shooters of old like Call of Duty or Medal of Honor. Depicting a world that has completely dominated by the Nazi? Crossed way over the line the German government of today can tolerate. I wonder if Man in The High Castle has received the same treatment in Germany.

To be fair to both sides of the war, you can't buy the game in Israel either.

Wrong. Germany, after negotiations, released a censored version changing the nazis to the Regime.

And also the Book Thief movie, was filmed in Germany, which has a scene of nazi's burning books. After a bit of negotiations, they were allowed to film the burning of the books. But after a some VERY stern negotiations, they were allowed to display the nazi symbols banners, and what not.

Nazi-ism in Germany is VERY strict to the point of stupidity and is locked on VERY tight though. Such as Wolfenstein 3D. That was banned. No negotiations. And I know Indiana Jones was banned or heavily censored.

U can also use a vpn service to download it. It is not baned in any other country

Does anyone know if I have the censored version now because I bought it in Germany?

One of the fastest ways is the metalic dogs at the start. If uncensored, they'll bear the Iron Cross from the Wehrmacht. (On the hind legs. If it is, it'll have the Regime logo. And I believe all nazis instead od swastika armband, they'll have it replaced with a wolf head. And any places it metions Nazis, Hitler, nazis(on a whole), etc will be replaced. When you start playing, look for the iron cross, if you couldn't see it, it'll be on enemies like so.

Also if you hear The Regime, censored.

You can return it for free if you have played less than 2 hours. I know it sucks because the discount will be gone when you can buy it again, but it will drop to that price again at some point.

Do not change what I said. "And also the Book Thief movie, was filmed in Germany, which has a scene of nazi's burning books.

So no. You weren't.

Roman empire games and all the like should be banned too .
( where should it end ) ?

right now , most people can't run TNO nor TOB
because of driver updates or Windows 10 updates .
So , maybe by the time you are for sure able to run it , all
driver issues will be fixed .

i thought i read somewhere that TNO was allowed , because of the
Censored Salutes and some other things were NOT authentic , of the nazi protocal .
