I've had it with this damn censoring bs in Germany. FFS what success has this idiocy brought anyone? Neither France, Holland or Sweden is filled with violent psychopaths, so wth? I'm a freaking grown man dammit. What stupid right do they take to babysit me.
Thanks fellow friend, I'll wait for clarification from knowledgeable users, otherwise gonna get in contact with US friends. This shit shouldn't have to be like this.

It looks like everybody is getting the uncut version for now, for example in the comments here (he gets lost in double negations, but he has the same version I got: "The Darkness II Standard Edition Retail").
It has happened in the past that HB would change to cut versions for german users after a while, probably because the publisher, or Humble received complains from Germany.
So it looks like you will get the uncut if you buy the bundle now, but that could change if you decide to get the bundle too late...
And yes, the Germany censorship situation is really irritating.


I got quite a few bundles with games I already own today:

I'm one of those people that just don't enjoy the Bioshock games at all.

I do wish the bundle included Enemy Within though.

gave away the keys to the kingdom.
I haven't checked in detail yet, but this was added to my account from this bundle

and this is the old bioshock in my account

and I could activate the second bioshock without a problem, so it can't be the same version of the game

That's bizarre. It shouldn't have worked. Both the German store sub and ROW retail sub only have the base game (7670).

I did the key resender, and still nothing. Wasn't in my spam either. I got the payment receipt, so I know I used the right email.

Ah, maybe they're just getting hammered; it's happened before with previous bundles. Hopefully it doesn't take too long.
 
That lull when Humble still hasn't sent you your keys...

>.>

I didn't get the e-mail either. Their key-sending e-mail server must be down. I was able to use the "Click here to get your keys" after paying, so I accessed the page using that. Try checking the bottom of your Humble "My Library" page to see if the Humble 2K Bundle was added to the list.
