South Park: The Stick of Truth censored for European release

Here's the censorship picture.
Spoiling it for the people who want to see it firsthand in-game.

Spoiler

Also is there a way to resize pictures on the forums? :V

The south of Ruth? Not much censorship then...

Which would you rather, the creators themselves coming up with creative ways to censor the game and still make it funny or blatant removal of specific parts/things in the game with very little effort done to replace it or cover it up?

I wasn't questioning their choice. I think it's great how they handle censorship. I'm just saying the censored scenes aren't as funny as the original ones, since you said that the new scenes would be "just as funny."

I've played South Park and not sure how they will censor it as its a big part of the game.
I've played the uncensored version and cant see why they would censor an adult game with adult content? Thats just really stupid.
The anal probe is a weapon so will they completely remove that? Its a good 30 min mission and a weapon so the game will have to be cut up just to remove that 1 part.
And its part of the story so you need to keep it in. I'm guessing they blocked it out maybe? They cant remove it completely as it will just confuse people and the story would be missing parts.
And no you dont anal probe people, its like a big stick you just hit them with it.
And the game is full of swearing and adult humor so why remove that 1 thing? Why just pick on the anal probing?

So we are allowed to see blood guts in games but when it comes to aliens sticking things up our ass thats a no no? WTF?

For the same reason we're cool with mass slaugher and genocide but go mad at the sight of a nipple. Blame religious people

Satan is an Action game, published by Dinamic Software, which was released in 1989.

We need more Satan. Especially if he has Sweet Sixteens with cakes made by serial murderers and has affairs with Saddam Husein.

The "Satan" in DBZ has nothing to do with the Satan from religion. In fact, Satan (or Hercule) is actually a (quasi-)good guy.

that is true. that was a bad example right there. can't think of any other ones atm...

So, I started playing the game. If they were to remove every scene with anal probing, you'd lose a pretty awesome mission, plus... well, I won't spoil anything. The story could easily be adjusted, but who cares about the story? Fart jokes and anal probing are the important part.

Here is a comparison video of what the have done to censor it. It looks like the South Park devs have given a big FU to the censors.


And WHY did they censor the male abortion video? Its not a real abortion as its a male, its just made up fake thing.
The censors are really stupid with this game. censoring fake things that even that they are cartoons they are still really fake and impossible in real life.
