The most absurd is that from my understanding, the German law forbids to glorify and use Nazi symbolism in art outside of their historical context, so the swasticas in a WW2 themed game, that doesn't present Nazis as the good guys, should be perfectly fine.
So, not only they censor for the whole world because of Germany, but they would most likely pass the German censorship and even if they got it indexed, it still could be sold in adults only age category.

But the cucks in the game industry listen to lawyers, that tell them to better not to even try and preemptively self censor instead, so fucking dumb.
If all else failed, they could also always make a German regional version, with some different textures ffs.

I can't access the store page from Germany either. I've had them forever, though, so they are still in my library.

Commandos 2 remaster turned out great guys.. It managed to totally eclipse the transgressions of Blizzard and their WC3 reforged masterpiece.

So I guess I am the only one who was looking forward to that Praetorians remaster?

That game had some neat ideas and a challenging campaign, I quite liked it back in the day. Runs like ass on Windows 10.

Curiously enough, it has pretty good ratings on steam. I might give it a try.

there will only be one version of Commandos 2 HD Remaster internationally, and it will not incorporate any symbols, portraits, speeches or other assets that could break the law in many countries.
As a company, we are obliged to adhere to the law, but we want our users to have the best experience with our games without causing potential delays or even being banned in certain countries.

Therefore, we have decided on this course of action so that we will not be forced to split up groups of players or be unable to provide the game to specific regions at all.

-cheers

But...globalism? :?
