Comment on A Blunt Message Against Collective Shout
Agent_Karyo@lemmy.world 1 day agoIs it though?
Valve openly refused to honour legally required refunds because of the culture of corruption and criminality that is unfortunately extremely prevalent in the US.
I believe it was complaints from Australia that forced them to provide refunds on a global level.
How is this different?

My point is they’re NOT only getting incest and very niche things removed.

Looking through Steam tracker it does seem to be incest and fetish porn games removed:
steam-tracker.com (you can sort the table by date).
Or am I missing something? I am genuinely curious.
I am no supporter of Collective Shout, but there are many examples of US tech companies ignoring local laws due to a toxic mix of corruption and arrogance. Steam initially not giving refunds is one relevant example.
I don’t understand OP’s post. If you want sexy/porn games on Steam (I even have 1 or 2) best option is to comply with local laws and get rid of incest, rape and extreme fetish content.
The devs can setup a patreon (without explicit references to incest) and email new builds to subscribers. It’s not unreasonable to expect a few hoops considering the nature of the content. I would even go as far as saying that it’s in their benefit to keep a low profile (i.e. not be listed on Steam).
