u cant say for sure, I heard about ppl, getting games revoked because of too many russian keys activated on their accounts, depends on the delevoper/publisher i would say, if they want steam to react on this, steam has to react

Steam actually does care if you activate games through VPN or continuously purchase games from the Russian store if you aren't from Russia. It just that it seems like Steam doesn't care if you do it once or twice.

They revoke accounts if you use VPN to buy anything from other region (well, I'm guessing they wouldn't do that if you'd go buy in Australia...). Never heard they had "we are banning for that" problems with activations - but maybe banned people just don't write about it...

So, I probably just will repeat what people said but, I personally bought the Russian Witcher 2 Key, and yes it is region free,I didn't have any problem with activating and playing (I mean starting the game, I have too wesk PC to actually play it :(), since I used Polish language which is not available on steam(oh now it is available :P) I don't know if you Can change the Language "in game" but You can download the language pack from here official witcher support (question #30)

First of all, there's no censorship in russian version. But there's really no way of knowing if it will work.
Here's the thing. The Witcher 2 (RU) purchased from Steam store was initially region free. Retail keys were also region free. But after 27.03.2012 Steam store version got restricted to Russia & CIS only. I don't know if the same happened to retail.
Since your friend obviously bought a retail key, he should be very careful.

Russian Witcher 2 CD keys are region free and uncensored.

A friend of mine bought a key from this site: http://www.worldofcdkeys.com/
I have a few questions. He's in Argentina and he doesn't know if the game is limited somehow. I would like to know what kind of limitations the RU version has. For example, can this version only be used in Russia? Does it have censorship of some type? Any data you can tell me about the RU version is appreciated.
