I disagree with Saudi Arabia on most things, but at the same time I respect them for not bowing down to pressure from other societies. Who are we to dictate how they should run their country and traditions?

It's not bowing down, it's the exact opposite actually, SE made a game, and they were like "nah, change that, we don't like it"

Thank you. I am just too tired to point out the obvious, but I'll build on what you started. Here is how it went so far:

• SE makes a harmless video game
• Saudi Arabia goes out of their way for 8 months to talk to SE into censoring it.
• SE gives up
• Saudi blocks the game from being released in their region
• A Saudi official whines on twitter that there's too much gay in his video games portraying themselves as the victim 

Do you guys want give it another go and tell me who's the one dictating here?
