For example Tropico a totally innocent game, yet is banned in Thailand due the "Junta DLC"
The law is very outdated by now and a lot of people have tried for years to get a change approved but no luck so far.
"Some"? About 95% of Germans hate Nazis. We dont want anything to do with that dark time nowadays. That is not the reason those games are censored.
Yes, but that doesn't change the fact that there are actual laws that ban games where you fight nazis. I have my own opinion about our government supporting such laws; your mileage may vary.
Steam only made this worse, as they have effective censoring in place. Previously, you would just buy the game elsewhere, like Austria which is right next to us.
Anyway, I have that game as the censored version and that's actually pretty good. The replacements are pretty darn good!
Note since Germany has such a hard on for suing steam that probably played into their decision of "we are not taking any chances the government will sue us again because we somehow got a Nazi game into Germany"
Movies are considered a form of art. Videogames are not. At least not by the government.
So far no videogame company has tried to fight that, which would be very costly.
Don't think he really owes anyone an explanation as to why.
In Germany is forbidden to show the Nazi Symbole in Game,Reallife and more.You can be pay a lot of money when you show the "Nazi symbole".
