I have won Left 4 Dead 2 last night, but as it turns out, and it wasn't mentioned in the description, it's the censored german version. Now I don't know about you guys, but I don't really want to play a game that is built around friggin gore and zombiez, with a pretty huge amount of censorship.

I know there are some workarounds, but these are either inconvenient, or might not be as stable as it should be, plus not really sure to what extend would these fix the censored parts.

As it is right now, I haven't accepted the gift yet, as I want to make sure what can and what can't be done in this case.

Thoughts/ideas?

If you don't want it, send message to gifter and tell them you changed your mind and they should ask support to do a re-roll.

yep that's what I would actually try. If that doesn't work just activate it and put an uncut patch on it.

Yes, it's possible, but it does lock you out from playing with the other versions. You will only be able to play with other uncensored German version users. It works by changing the app ID.

Yeap, if you contact to the steam support, they will help you to uncensore it. I have bought the L4D(german)cut version with my friend and the support was very helpful in that change ;)
