"We are specially chesty that the mettlesome module be free in its original entirety, with no noesis changed or distant whatsoever. This is a big get for Australian gamers. We applaud the Classification Review Board on making a selection that understandably considers the environment of the mettlesome and is in distinction with the modern expectations of commonsensible Australians."
