Australia is infamous for its crazy game censorship.
That’s a real bummer, I thought Australia was less restrictive than the US. You can’t say fuck on TV or radio here.
Nah, Australia is extremely restrictive. Where in the US you can publish anything, with company policies being the only thing responsible for restricting adult games (on consoles), Australia refuses to allow publication or importation of any game they haven’t rated, and they refuse to rate anything over… I want to say 17 year old acceptability? I’m not sure how that works with something like steam games, but I wouldn’t be shocked to find out they block adult titles there too.
9/10 times when I’ve seen someone complain about their “nanny state”, it’s been Australia due to this policy.
Maybe they think the F stands for Fuck?
I thought Aussie’s were famous for their use of fuck?
Huh? I thought they were famous for their use of cunts!
Of course, that too. But they say fuck in a funny way. They say fack with an a.
You know, that’s probably it. Everyone’s going around ‘fack, fack, fack’ and the government’s feeling embarrassed facing the neighbours, so they whipped out their belt to discipline the kids in the backyard.
Niiiice it sounds like this game’s going to be good! 😜
I’m cautiously optimistic. I know they can pull it off.
Banned banned, or left it without classification? I think nobody doing the actual process been the reason some media has ended with weird ratings or legal status.
