So, CoH2 sales stopped in Russia

I think yes

I think it's referring to the length of the campaign, in which case it's silly to stop selling a game because it's campaign is a bit short. The game was designed for multiplayer. (And it shows).

I think it means 'a number of scenes / parts of the game'

+1

In SOVIET Russia...

"Due to user reports of inappropriate scenes."

The reasons are that someone was hurt by some episodes in the game...Those vulnerable russians ;-(

That gamers found episodes antirussian

Russians hate CoH2 for reminding them that they helped Hitler enslave Easter Europe and that they were quite content with their alliance until Hitler attacked them.

+1

I've read about that situation at russia's media portals. Some stupid russian patriots said that Red Army couldn't kill civilians...

Nah, not everyone is that foolish.

i wonder how low the odds are for valve or the company publishing CoH2 in ru to listen.

i mean, '16,699 supporters' = paltry amount of 'lost' revenue.

No one can write history as it was. It is just a... typical product of Western culture

Damn Gosdura and Party of thieves :-/

I hoped, situation will finished how it was in 2010, when one deputy charged CoD MW2 in antirussian propaganda

First hentai now games? ;__;

У многих здесь извращённое понятие истории. Поляки так вообще... сам знаешь :) В общем, далеко не все тут понимают в чём дело, у них мозги промыты. Но тем не менее, мне кажется, что не надо было запрещать игру. Бойкотировать её уже было бы вполне достаточно. Кто хотел бы, тот бойкотировал. Не лучший вариант выбрали, в общем. Тем более в эту игру многие играют исключительно из-за мультиплеера, в котором подобной похабщины (из-за которой у нас и запретили игру) нет.

Red Army didn't raped German women, Red Army didn't have penal batalions, Red Army didn't shoot in backs of deserted troops

History is subjective and no historical event can be painted in broad "black and white" strokes. And I don't think that the SteamGifts forum is the right place to start a heated debate on the atrocities of war or to start calling a country a fascist state.

lol@this conmvo...I couldn't care less if finnish army was the most horrible people who ever lived on earth, maybe they ate russians and slept with german soldiers. It has nothing to do with me.

I remember watching that. I like how he points out inaccuracies in the game while injecting some historical revisionism himself.

Well... It's really offensive to hear that your grandfather wss fighting not for saving his relatives from death and not for his motherland, but just for a photo of Soviet flag waving over Reichstag building. One thing is when it's said by some ignorant douchebag which opinion doesn't matter, and the other is when it's pretty much an official point of view of a serious company (since they call CoH2 historically authentic).

The truth is the reason :)

It's called dictatorship my friend.

We're under occupation of Party crooks and thieves...that's a pity sight

I don't really see any connection between this topic and your post, but okay. And by the way, people from these groups are getting arrested (russian news site).

What their grandparents fought and died for never existed anywhere but in their minds. Communist leaders were able to amass power by selling people on a certain dream, just like every other type of leaders, including Fascists, have ever done.

Botox kremlin rat as we call him...

there are already a lot of gay countries all over the words. No need in Russia for them :D

Selling this crap as a real WW2 story?

Take any historical event USA or any other country is proud of or the one that has enormous meaning and turn it way round. You won't like that too.

I think the biggest mistake made by Relic - taking bad sources, putting them into game and saying that this is actually how it was, and continue persisting in their stupidity despite all historians saying that this is not true.

They could sell it as a fictional perception of WW2 events. But they're claiming their game is true to life. That's the biggest offense here.

PS I'm personally from the Ukraine. I don't like Russia and I don't support their actions. But that's the case when our mutual history was corrupted.

Assfuckers are not people, no rights for them.

That's hilarious. That also represents more social media postings than I think I've ever read.

all those graves..

who cares its a game they should stop crying

Oh yeah, I translate this article for one russian game site

That's not possible due to low violence versions not containing any Nazi symbols at all. But in the German version there may be evil robots that spill a lot of oil when the Third Cyborg Army will conquer the whole Mars under their leader Glados.
