Isn't there somebody you forgot to ask?

I'm out of the loop I guess. What's happening?
Americans are being puritanical, and US payment companies are making steam and other game platforms remove nsfw content or they'll block their payment services from them or something.
And somehow they decided it's better to make this an issue for everyone, not just the people who use those payment services

Hate it. Especially itch.io nuking everything. Adult games is basically the only reason I even had an account on there
Well thanks for letting me know I don't need to bother with that site /s

I think they're working on bringing a lot of it back and stuff, but ya know :3
Last I checked you couldn't search for anything with the "nsfw" tag

wrote last edited by [email protected]An action group of Karens who in the past have succeed in getting other games (one of them an rpg rape simulator) taken off of game stores.
This recent story they convinced payment processors to pressure steam into removing most of their adult games as well as some other site that I guess has even more adult games.
IMO if a platform decides they don't want to host adult content, that is their prerogative. The people conflating this to "art destruction" or "censorship" are just another flavour of people who misunderstand what free speech is and isn't.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Pretty sure Collective Shout is Austrailian.
I think they also got Left 4 Dead 2's poster edited to remove the V fingers (cuz it's 2 in america and the finger in Aussie??)
They also got an rpg rape simulator delisted, though that probs would have happened on it's own.

You can look at the list :3 this is from itch talking about collective shout. A lot of them are US based, the last one is japanese

Kind of like how Republicans wamt to police your sexual partners. Pretty sad in this day of age. Who cares how people spend money and what they spend it on.
If you're so concerned about kids, launch a parental education campaign. Or age verify with the card.
If you're a parent, you shouldn't be attaching your payment methods to kids' accounts anyway. That's financial suicide.

"Remove the games or we'll remove your ability to accept payments from 98% of your customers"
DUDES IT'S TOTALLY UP TO THE GAME PLATFORM

You don't understand, I'm very concerned about the future for my child who I want to put no effort into raising. Why would I parent my kid when I can just have everything I don't want them exposed to banned? I'm a responsible parent who's definitely not just trying to enforce draconian puritanical standards I don't follow on everyone else.

I would be greatly entertained if valve went into payment processing and out-competed these absolute shitshows of companies.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Totally. I'm arguing that the only people with puritanical reasons are the Australian karen group.
VISA etc are acting for purely financial reasons. Like they literally have matrixes for this kind of thing. Corporations don't give 2 shits about fuck if it doesn't make them money.
End of the day they calculated that the market cap for hentai games is smaller than the potential lost revenue generated from the negative publicity.

Fair enough :3
Similar point tho. Enough puritans can't handle consenting adults looking at a drawn penis to make the payment processors pull this little stunt

Hmmm... That's a pretty valid argument. Now, normally, I'm not a big fan of hitting kids. So that's why I'm gonna hit you instead. Get over here, you little shit!

Oh, cool. A pity that it won't be adopted

Funny part is that one of Jesus's favorite disciplines was a prostitute. I don't think Jesus was has as prudish as his followers are.

To the people who are pushing this:
Do you want everyone to start using crypto where all transactions are not controllable by you at all? Because this is how you get people to do that.
