yup. the extent, unsure, but there will be options for the...more mature content
The Middle East version of the game will be within the guidelines of the local age rating bodies in both countries.
the 'middle east' specifically refers to Saudi Arabia and the UAE. but what 'within the guidelines' specifically means, I have no clue.

The violence should not be a problem.. but the sex and liberal way of doing anything is against the teaching of the Koran.. so i actually don't think the game could be released there.. and now i wonder.. Indonesia?? (The biggest Muslim country)
yeah tlou2 was banned there because ellie's gay. so maybe the player choice avoids a hard ban...in that region?
interestingly there is Islam in the world of CP2077. in the 48 minute 2018 demo there are lots of hijabi women walking about V's megaplex. and i genuinely hope a hijab is an optional head covering in the game because i sincerely want to see if i can roleplay as a Muslim. that would mean a lot to me.

this one man put shaving cream all over computer screen
this helped put censorship because he sees nothing of video game
but this breaks computer screen and start fire
not recommended
When i watch what comment they write in a japan youtube channel talking about this,
almost 90% said they will buy a US import version if that can switch to display japanese UI and subtitle
Hopefully Japanese fans can get easy access to a US or European copy of the game. Which also makes me wonder if the Japanese digital copy on GOG or Steam will also be censored.
uhhhhh...
censorship is evil, but... I mean, maybe outlast2 devs could have just made that optional, you know? like not necessarily censor it, just put it behind an option setting. I would have totally disabled it since it's just not my kind of thing. But anyone who wanted that could have enabled the setting, thus, nobody censored. Everybody wins.
Post automatically merged:
I hope that the Japanese fans of Cyberpunk2077 can all purchase a good uncensored copy of the game somehow (in a legal way) so that they get the full experience and do not miss out on anything good. My best wishes to the Japanese people.
You should be able to. TW3 comes with all language packs even as i have it in the US
they proved that PC copy from GOG will be uncensored.
and again, there is no law with not allow nude or violent in Japan,
its a volunteer program the retail chain require what they sell to pass,
since PC is sell directly from GOG of course censored is not need.
Which country? Like I said before in this thread; Japan doesn't have a problem with nudity, they have a problem with showing genitalia. If we're talking about the US, it's arguable whether or not it's necessary/relevant to show a naked girl in a "kids" show, but even with that argument out of the way, the US is one of the biggest porn producers in the world, if not THE biggest, it only becomes a problem when we start crossing the line of what is decent to show on network television, and then what isn't, and that's an argument that has been going on for quite awhile now, violence vs sex and all that. Whatever the case, 2077 isn't censored in the US, but it is in Japan, which, again, is not something that should have surprised anyone. It's just something you have to deal with, or import if it's that important to you, or wait for a unofficial patch that will almost certainly come out.
And it's worth pointing out that it isn't just nudity that is being censored here, it's that 2077 is taking a pretty giant step forward when it comes to expression and is opting in for full frontal nudity, something that's actually very rare in the gaming world (when it comes to mainstream titles). T&A is common, penises flopping about isn't. There are a few exceptions, of course (Conan Exiles being the most notable in recent memory for me, which was also censored on consoles, even in the US, but not on PC), but this has always been a touchy subject, and it just happens to be even more touchy in Japan.

Just saying, but Isn't genitalia technically speaking the defining feature of what makes "nude" be "nude" by its very definition? The reason why I say this, is (To the best of my knowledge) that on beaches that are NOT nude beaches, many people are often able to wear extremely skimpy swim wear so long as their genitalia are still covered, and there are people that often wear the most revealing swim wear possible that almost essentially makes them 99.99999999% nude, other than the fact that their genitals are still covered, thus technically making them "not nude".
So the statement that Japan is fine with nudity but not genitals is very confusing for me.

Wiki would say it better than I would.
In other words; it's complicated. In Japanese pornography, you can show the breasts, anus, pubic hair, etc, but not a penis or graphic shots of a vagina. They are, technically, completely nude, just censored in specific places. You can still see full frontal nudity in some Japanese movies, usually women, but only because it's easier to hide that sensitive place on a woman with hair or a merkin. Men don't have the same luxury, but there are instances where it was allowed... it really just comes down to Japan being really picky about what is decent and what isn't, or if something is considered artistic and not pornographic. The general rule is that the more graphic it is, the more likely it's going to be censored, and we know 2077 allows full customization of those particular features in the game, so it was a foregone conclusion at that point.
