I'm looking for or would like to start a list of games on GOG that are censored from their original form.
So far I have:

1. Fallout (Children are missing)
2. Fallout 2 (Children are missing)
3. Giants: Citizen Kabuto (Nudity covered up)
4. Gobliiins (Nudity covered up)
5. Bloodrayne (Nazi swastikas are missing) [Note: All PC versions of this game are censored. The uncensored form only exists on consoles.]

Are these affecting the gameplay ? No .
Oddly enough, I never requested a list of censored games that affect gameplay. However, I would argue that the Fallout change does affect gameplay. How do you get the Childkiller reputation title in the censored version?
I don't think the first BloodRayne ever had swastikas to begin with.

Edit: NVM. I was wrong...

"In all PC releases and the PAL Xbox version most swastikas were removed or replaced with triskelions."

I'd argue that this defeats much of the purpose.

Did you check both versions?

Here you go. Feel free to register to the wiki (what do you mean you haven't yet?) and add any other you may find.

Well, in the case of Fallout 2 it kinda does affect the gameplay, because there is at least one quest that you cannot complete, unless you get the children back in the game. : /
It kinda does matter in Bloodrayne.

The point of the game is to kill Nazis after all. It'll be like Wolfenstein 3D not having any of the nazi iconogr-wait...

In Fallout 1, if you kill children, you get attacked by bounty-hunters. No children to kill, no bounty-hunters.... Therefore, gameplay is affected.

It affects both games because you can no longer kill children and be known as a "Child Killer" which adversely affects NPC reactions.

And of course there is fact that the games no longer have children. The post-apocalyptic wasteland you explore is populated entirely by adults.

This is debateable. Yes, it is censored, but so was the retail version. No uncensored version of Giants: Citizen Kabuto was ever released. Besides, undoing the censorship is so easy that it hardly matters. Of course, you have to know about it, but as far as I recall, it's a matter of copying a single file from one place in the installation to the other.

Then it's the same as with Giants: Citizen Kabuto. If no uncensored version ever existed, does it make sense to include it in a list of "censored" GOG games?

Technically there was an uncensored version; the PS2 versions had the original swastikas.

However, the GGG symbol does supposedly look like the emblem for some white supremacist organisation, so close enough I guess?

I believe Fallout 1 and 2 are no longer censored? I've seen reports from various GOGers that children are present in game.
