Me realizing what I just redeemed.
- I just wanted Postal 2. Now I got a library with much more 😅
- Same. Clicked and shared before I had a proper look. 😔
I get the porn stuff (actually no, I don't!), but Postal 2? Seriously??
Nice move GOG!! I don't think I will ever play them, but you never know!! Claimed!!
- but Postal 2? Seriously??
  The Postal series was one of the first to be targeted for censorship, and considering GOG is Good OLD Games, it makes sense to include it in a bundle responding to censorship.
  "Shortly after the game’s release, Postal would become the target of US Senator Joe Lieberman, who previously played a significant role in creating the ESRB. While he’s overall supportive of the ESRB and ratings practices assigned to video games nowadays, the volatile content of Postal certainly set him off, describing it, Marilyn Manson, and Calvin Kline underwear ads as the “three worst things in American society.” While Vince Desi admittedly appreciated any news coverage of their games, Lieberman would strike a chord with RWS, with Postal 2 featuring an entire difficulty mode named after him. Dubbed “Liebermode,” it’s the easiest difficulty setting, significantly modifying health values, enemy hostility, and more."

  Yeah. Postal 1 I think would be good.
  Postal 2 was racist and mean spirited and leaned entirely into it in full edgelord shit. I firmly believe it has the right to exist but also think adding it to this collection is a mistake.
  
  @partialaccumen @leaveitblank The RWS developers' office appeared in the original game, with little protesters marching back and forth in front of it. You could of course unload on the protesters.
- "Would you like to sign my petition?"
If you claim this, make sure you go to the GOG store proper and claim the House Party holiday DLC's, they're free, too.
Weird. The links are all dead, but if you go to the GOG press release, they link to the store page for each game, where they aren't free; any of them.
- I think you have to get the bundle, not individual games: Freedom to buy games
  I'm getting Good Old GOGBear right now, but earlier when I tried I could add the bundle to my cart. It should work eventually.
  
  You're right. It worked after some time and the entire bundle was required.
I cannot redeem this. After solving the captcha and an error message occured. I also tried different browsers.
- It seems others have had issues too, so I suggest reading the promo thread on GOG. It's possible country restrictions apply.
  
  This is what solved it for me: https://www.gog.com/forum/general/freedom_to_buy_games_bundle_workaround_for_australians_and_germans
Do I have the freedom to buy Devotion by RedCandleGames? Or is some censorship fine?
Nice, I've been wanting to play Treasure of Nadia.
