All right, but if such is the case then how come games like Witcher 2 and Far Cry 3 which contained full frontal nudity and explicit lovemaking scenes, got released in India?

I hope you know these love making scenes are not homosexual in nature. Till "porn" itself is going to go illegal (and the new government is thinking to make it so), there is nothing criminally offensive in straight frontal nudity.

They did release their previous games here which had homosexuality, they could have released this one also. They didn't chose to.
Well doesn't matter to me, wasn't gonna buy the game anyway.

Bit of a problem here. Even if they crack Denuvo-they will, sooner or later,- you can't import saves from DA:Keep unless the game is bought and connected with Origin, which is region-locked. And miss out on a lot of stuff.

My advice: Pirate something that is deserving. Like Ubish!t's FC4(already out with crack). Surprise, Surprise!! FC4 too has some issues on PC...

Yeah, I know that. But as the CBFC doesn't allow full frontal nudity and explicit lovemaking scenes in Indian & Foreign films that are released in India, I thought the same restrictions would apply on games as well.

^ I cannot firmly state reasons, only speculate, but both of these games came to market before NDA government came to power. Might be that censor board wasn't as strict then..but it is now, under the new regime. Don't know really.

This game deserves piracy more than anything. More than Ubi crap....more than Blizzard crap IMHO.

Have started downloading the game. Just like assassin creed2 which was cracked after a long time this will also be cracked. Fingers crossed

What in the actual ****? The only game i've been really excited about since The Witcher 2 came out. And how is homosexuality suddenly a big thing in India? There are hints of homosexuality in almost every bollywood movie these days. There are songs like "haan main alcoholic hoon" blasting around on the tv all day and no one objects to that. This is some serious immature **** happening here.

Hints of homosexuality is one thing, and advertising and incorporating a "fully gay" character that initiates the same-sex romance with the player character is another thing...not to mention the inclusion of "love making" scenes, both straight and gay. Regardless of the intensity, it is understandable why EA don't wish to be hassled with legal notices from the Government or face lawsuits from right-wing organisations over such content, given the SC ruling over article 377.

And this is why I love Steam....I own both Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas in my library and can play in peace in India, even though its banned here. :p

You know, it IS possible that this might be an EA distributor/pricing issue: PC version went digital and a physical copy is doubtful but you might get it for X1 and PS. EA's retailer in India Game4u is showing the price as 4399 and is allowing you to preorder as a digital download. It was the same for FIFA 15 too. The PC version was a digital download whereas the others were physical copies.

Here see this: HomeShop: DAI for X1
and PSN

ie. Console versions are still on sale(for now). Doesn't make sense. I mean, there's a lot of other content with homosexual/violence themes and whatnot. Besides, would our government really even bother banning a game(here, people consider it a kiddie hobby). Again, origin India is based in India, unlike PSN(which is a reskinned EU site) the ban could be affecting that? Uggh, confusing.

Also this article suggests we might be seeing more games banned(as the total porn ban in India-God, why don't they just impose Sharia on the country??): Some slight NSFW content

Possible Solution:
My friend called EA Customer Care and they confirmed that keys from Amazon physical copies and third party sellers like GMG,G2A etc will work without any issue, and also that we can redeem the keys without the use of VPN. They do not have any information regarding the support of multi player and future patches. The Dragon Age Keep data can be imported without issues. (I dunno, he seemed hesitant. What happens if the game doesnt activate??)

So, we could use VPN, buy from online stores, ask a friend abroad to buy it for us, or maybe get it from third party sites(note: can download digital copy from Amazon.com, then activate it on origin, but provide a US address for billing and shipping)

My advice: Wait. Let the game launch, see what other users experience. Will any online content be available(Keep,MP,DLC,patches etc??) Devs have confirmed that the game works offline, so that's a relief.
