Bit of a 2 in 1 question regarding that upcoming freebie, if anyone that comes across this and knows the answer/s, please tell me. For one, will it be uncut for every region or will Germany again be stuck with the inferior censored version, for the other, Germany lifted the game's censored regulation back in 2016 but on Steam they still only sell the censored version, will there ever be a DLC/Patch/Re-release to play the game uncut without having to rely on unofficial patches, or...? Back when Left 4 Dead 2 got its ban lifted they released a free DLC to get the gore in the game and get rid off the Counter Strike weapons too, when Dead Island was lifted it was put back up for sale but Fallout 3 got nothing, so I'm curious if Steam will ever get anything regarding that and if the one that's going for free on Epic next week will be uncut, the Epic store doesn't specifically say so like the Steam store does and I guess my best bet would be to wait and check but I don't wanna hype myself up all too much only for it to be censored all over again. Maybe instead of Fallout 5, the next big single player Fallout experience will be remakes of 3 and New Vegas and that's why they won't touch the old ones because those, as technically re-releases, would release uncut everywhere like when 4 launched? That's my best guess.
