Best "Downgraded" Version?
I downloaded the DRM free version from Humble. It says its from 2015. But I know there are some other versions floating around.

What are the pros and cons of the DRM-free Humble version vs the PS3 version vs the Switch version (physical vanilla, without updating) vs downgrading via Steam?

And are there any safe guides to downgrading via Steam? I can't seem to find them anymore, were they removed?

Who said I was going to give them money? I just want to know the best, most uncensored version possible to play

Bumping, because I'm still curious which is the best "uncensored" version.

Anyone know if its possible to play a version without ANY censorship? (Without even the original first round of censored content)

Well, in response to an early round of censorship, they opened a beta you can opt into with the code ireallyfearchange but I'm not sure if it has no censorship whatsoever as I never played before the initial change.

What does this thread seem veeery closely edging towards illegal piracy? Which is both against Steams rules and the law.

Downloading older SteamApp depots for owned products using the Steam console or the official SteamCMD utility program is neither against the Steam rules nor against the law.

DRM-free version is legal, and legit - I already purchased it on Humble Bundle
The PS3 version is legal and legit - I still own a PS3
The Switch version is legal and legit - Buying a secondhand used copy is also legal and legit
Downgrading via Steam is legal and legit - I already have a Steam key version, I can do whatever I want with it

Nothing here goes against any terms. Go troll elsewhere.

If you are pirating games, it is illegal and against Steams ToS. This is not trolling, it's a statement of fact.

Please refrain from baseless accusations of piracy when there are perfectly legal ways to play older versions of this game.
