OutlierBlue, do gaming w Steam is cracking down on porn games, to keep Payment Processors happy.

Why is Steam removing them entirely? They should just remove the option to pay from that processor.

LukeZaz,

Probably because it’s a hell of a lot easier than trying to figure out how to manage payment processing without those processors. Visa and Mastercard are extremely large, and by-and-large the only way to pay online in the US. Add in Paypal and Stripe’s limitations (which are also notoriously shitty) and you don’t really have many options left, so it’s really not worth it. I know the EU has better options, but Steam isn’t based there and I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t want to find a way to jump through those hoops.

Or just be able to equip cosmetic armor atop of your stat-giving armor

Once again, something that Cyberpunk 2007 did right (after patches) (making it likely that it will also be implemented in TW4)

Any game featuring most kinds of animal, including people, is evidence that sex occurred. We should ban those too.

If a game exists, a person made it and that person exists because someone had sex. It's disgusting how people pay to play that sort of filth.

The new dragon age game has this. As long as you don’t care about a good story, the combat is super fun and there are lots of nice quality of life stuff like that. You can reset the skill tree at any point, copy your character’s appearance if you want to start a new play thru.

If the execs didn’t fuck up the story, I think the game would sold big time. Fuckin idiots

Just wanted to say it’s impressive as hell that you kept this up so long, I’ve enjoyed following along where I can and offering my two cents :)

GrantUsEyes,

I know right? The consistency, I could never.

World of Warcraft had the transmogrification system that did this. They introduced it a few years into the game and it was great. No longer looking like a clown while playing your character really helps with immersion.

orbitz,

There’s a penny arcade comic that makes a good argument. About printing out your character as a figure or something they have/had. Heck I wonder if it that was part of the reason, unsure if it’s still offered.

I always enjoyed the bit of making my character looked like how I preferred though it wouldn’t detract me overly if I wanted to play. I play sometimes but not often.

I’d be interested to know what steam did if anything for the companies behind those games. Hopefully they had some warning at least.

Additionally, all of these adult themes need their own filterable genre tags so that they can be included or excluded when you browse by filters.

Excited to see a new game from the Mario Odyssey team, and excited that this one seems to have turned out well! I wish i had anything else to say about this game, but it literally just came out today. I usually don’t play new releases and I never buy a console in the first year of release, so…I look forward to playing this on a Switch 2 or emulator in 5 years. lol

payment providers are way to powerful

And next they will come for other labels deemed “against the rules” without elaborating. Porn is the canary. You can “lol incest” but this is about taking down what folks cant argue with first then the next will be porn at all, then queer stuff, just like tumblr

Onomatopoeia,

It’ll eventually be anything those in power deem contrary to their agenda.

And people still clamor for a cashless society, when such issues are already obvious.

Any game that allows for a significant amount of visual customisation should have some sort of transmog system. Having to look like a clown for optimal stats is never a fun or enjoyable gameplay experience, while on the other hand feeling like you look awesome adds so much.

Postmortal_Pop,

This is the main reason I cheat ballistic weave on everything in fallout 4. I love some of the outfits and it’s dumb that they’re worse than the vault suit.

Try to have fun without minmaxing. The game is simple enought were there’s absolutely no need to hunt gear down.

duchess,

except for fashion

Spoomis,

Yeah, my build at this point is pretty much just “swap out an item if it’s better then the previous one enough.”

There is no sex in SUUS.

hisao,

This is not even exclusive to US. Those payment processors actually even tried to shut down some specific japanese dating sites/apps.
