![]() Makes great sense together with letting publishers eff up some nations at whole (releasing ghetto-versions for germans and russians with cut content. P.s.: hah, I've forgot that valve are scared about 'n4z1' words too (hearts hearts hearts). Other mediums (books, movies) got over this already, why games can't? Not to mention that swastikaz offends only complete idiots. Actually I still think that censoring games offerd a lot more people than swastikas do. What's wrong with it? Censor games this way is like portraing movie about Vietnam and make all the Vietnamese soldiers tall, wide and black, wearing top hats. Nazis love swastikas (which is symbol of sun, originated from middle asia, was used by hundreds of different nations). The level is from Wolf 3D, and Wolf 3D was about Nazis. What's the reason? It's just history, experience gained. And I am russian, we are still making fun of Stalin and Soviets (along with the whole world) and we don't try to cover this. Damn, it'd better to remember and make fun of it than cover your own sh*t and pretend you doesn't sh*t at all. Damn, who cares? It's not offending me in any way. so i guess they wanted their share of the profits for the use of the likeness of "their" image.Īs for the swastikas being removed, that's quite simple, it's because people, whitey in particular, believe that if they refuse to aknowledge history then it simply didn't happen. what do think, bethesda somehow thinks they will be associated with the red cross and somehow people might view them in a more negative light becauseof it? or that the red cross had their hand out for "royalties" for their "intellectual property"? or that are they afraid their pristine image might be sullied by an appearance in a video game along side the image of "the evil swastika"? oh wait, there are no more swatikas, at least that's what i learned in history class. Not a big deal really, but a sign of the times. Maybe it's the Bethesda takeover, they don't want to be associated with it. Far cry from the days when id was considered a rock star game developer that didn't give a ****. Originally posted by Evilnapkin:I can understand taking out the Red Cross logo, but I'm not sure why they removed the swastikas. This change originated with the Xbox Live Arcade release of Doom 2 in 2010." stimpacks, and berserk packs (2:55) has been replaced by a pill graphic due to the wishes of the Red Cross. However, the SS Guard sounds are still present.Īnd while unrelated to the censorship, you can also see the red cross on medikits. In the main wad file, most of the SS Guard sprites have been replaced with a dummy Zombieman sprite. This also makes several secrets more difficult to find. All swastika and Hitler-related decorative imagery have been removed from the wall textures, making the levels look quite plain. All groups of SS Guards have been replaced by groups of Zombiemen MAP31's Spear of Destiny track "Evil Incarnate" and MAP32's Wolfenstein 3D track "The Ultimate Challenge" have both been replaced by the standard Doom 2 track "DOOM" MAP32 "Grosse" has been renamed to "Keen" ![]() MAP31 "Wolfenstein" has been renamed to "IDKFA" ![]() Unlike previous attempts of censorship which deleted these maps entirely, the maps were retained but with heavy content edits. "This is a demonstration of how the secret Wolfenstein maps in the version of Doom 2 packed with Doom 3: BFG Edition are censored. ![]()
