Censorship.

I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Haha, what kind of fucked up morality system some people seem to have

Killing video game depictions of Russians using a video game depiction of an American is A-OK

Killing video game depictions of Taliban using a video game depiction of an American is A-OK

Killing video game depictions of Americans using a video game depiction of a Taliban member is not on.

Racists, the lot of you*.

*you referring to the people making the complaints, not the VGChartz crowd, which, from the comments I can see is pretty strongly against this change (or ambivalent)

It's the principle of the matter. This was supposed to be an "edgy" video game that dealt with serious and controversial stuff, but the developers chickened out. They're cowards, and they ain't getting my money.

Some stores were refusing to stock the game...

...

Yeah, those cowards!

Sig thanks to Saber! :D

principle issue aside. surely this solves nothing anyway. American soldiers are still being tracked down and killed willing by the player playing as opposing forces side. the solution like Kain_Kusanagi said in the gamrfeed thread would be to not make the good guys American and not make the bad guys the Taliban.

If they most keep them who they are they should only let you play as American but the other team who is also playing as American appears as the taliban. this way you are only killing the taliban but you may get killed as american (to you) like all other games. this way you are not trying to kill the good guys.

correct me if I am wrong
stop me if I am bias
I love a good civilised debate (but only if we can learn something).

the same brave taliban who murdered a friend of mines brother because he converted to christianty
