Meh…it’s a modern version of Postal. Edge Lord falls off the edge. I strongly shrug at all.

echodot,

Postal was made to rile particular kind of people up. This game on the other hand seems to be actually aimed at a, em, particular demographic

@chakan2@lemmy.world avatar

I don’t see the difference. They both went after a kink.

echodot,

Well not really. One of them was violent, but violence isn’t exactly a kink, it’s just fun.

GTA is violent, and people got all bent out of shape about that as well. But the goal of the game was never to actually get on the nerves of the sort of people who get upset by it It was always made to be entertaining.

Violence is a ok, even encouraged. Sex stuff is a big no-no.

Oh so this is where that sibling breeding meme came from.

sigmaklimgrindset, do games w The Coffin of Andy and Leyley Developer Sells Title And Leaves The Internet Entirely After Harassment Campaign

Is this the…um…incest game? Is that why they’re being harassed? Or is it something else I’m ootl on?

qwertyqwertyqwerty,

I’m all for supporting developers not being harassed, but what the hell is that screenshot library? What even is this game? I stopped scrolling after a bit because the dialog looks…gross, at best, if not straight up soft incest porn.

What even is this game?

It’s a psychological horror visual novel.

SkyezOpen,

Consider me horrified.

sanpo,

This is the exact type of comment that led the dev to abandon everything.

It’s not “the incest game”, the topic of incest barely even appears only if you make several specific choices in the game, and even then it’s never painted in a good light.

qwertyqwertyqwerty,

Thank you for the clarification. The screenshots for the game on Steam’s site led me to believe it was a horror-romance focused game that heavily leaned on incest. In either case, this is likely not a game for me. Good on the dev for being able to step away from the drama and focus on their work. Shame on people for harassing them.

sanpo,

Apparently it wasn’t just drama. Steam post doesn’t mention that, but it seems the dev was doxed just before making this decision. :/

qwertyqwertyqwerty,

Yeah, I’m probably understating what happened to the dev. I don’t know the entire story. I just wish them the best.

themeatbridge,

I want to be absolutely clear that I don’t condone doxxing or harassment, and people should be free to push boundaries in artistic endeavors.

But you only get to Bowser in 8-4 if you make several specific choices in the game, and it seems like the main draw of the game is being edgy with sexy cartoons. If it didn’t want to be “the incest game” then it shouldn’t really have incest in it. That’s a controversial choice, and if the developer didn’t know that, they didn’t read or watch Game of Thrones.

@BrudderAaron@lemmy.world avatar

Even the first episode of the game was rife with incestuous undertones. I fully support the dev in their art, but it’s hard to say it’s not an incest game.

People just need to grow up. Weird things happen all the time. We can’t be puritanical and pretend it doesn’t exist.

AnonTwo,

To be fair, judging by the fact it's either incest or people getting knives/cleavers put up against their throats, i'm going to go on a wild guess and say it doesn't paint it in a positive light. Maybe even suggests there's something wrong with them.

Yet people give

spoilertwelve minutes

a pass?

sigmaklimgrindset,

Genuinely thank you for clarifying and yeah, I realize I’m kind of being part of the problem here, but that is literally all I know about the game because of the internet mob.

Every time I tried to ask anything about it on Reddit or Twitter I would get shouted down because of the “problematic content”, and that is all the topic would devolve into. The creator doesn’t deserve to be bullied or doxxed over it, even if the entire story WAS about incest. That really sucks.

ryven, (edited )
@ryven@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

It cannot really be about that, there are tons of incest porn games on Steam that pass largely unremarked upon, and this seems way less explicit than most of them. Surely if someone wanted to punish incest game creators, they’d start with one that’s way more explicitly incesty?

I think they just decided to bully these devs, in particular, and whatever they say it’s about is just a pretext for the bullying.

This one got famous cause of the memes that’s why it gets harassment and the others don’t

Good for them

LeftBoobFreckle, do games w SteamOS 3.5.5 Update

I found my old Stadia controller was much more stable when connected via Bluetooth

schmidtster, do games w SteamOS 3.5.5 Update

Is this why every game is popping up with a controller prompt now?

Ugurcan,

Nope, it’s the previous update released the day before.

steamcommunity.com/games/…/5484882897551382406

schmidtster,

No prompts after that update, so nope not that one.

Carighan,
@Carighan@lemmy.world avatar

No, got it after that - previous - update. Might be a slow rollout thing.

schmidtster,

One says a controller firmware update and the other doesn’t. Imma go with the one that says there was a firmware change over the one that doesn’t, it’s also the one that caused the prompt on my side.

Sounds like it’s about time for a revisit

Caligvla, do games w Grim Dawn Version v1.2.0.0 coming November 16th!
@Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

God damn, that’s a meaty update. Active dodges, no more health potions, loot drop rebalance… I’m super intrigued.

dumdum666, do games w Grim Dawn Version v1.2.0.0 coming November 16th!

They have an Expansion planned so it is nice that they provide a free update in Advance to this

This game is one of the few existing dungeon crawlers that had me playing several hundred hours.

Fades, do games w Grim Dawn Version v1.2.0.0 coming November 16th!

I had a BLAST playing thru this game. Cool to see it still being supported

@kadu@lemmy.world avatar

What the hell, I bought it recently but thought it was pretty much done and abandoned, that’s super cool

Drusas,

Oh no, the game's been having regular updates for years. Fantastic dev team.

Vlyn, do games w Grim Dawn Version v1.2.0.0 coming November 16th!

Holy shit that’s a beefy update. It also modernizes the gameplay with active dodges and cooldown potions.

I really need to get back to it after D4 :)

qooqie,

I’ve played this game a shit ton and love it to death, but I suggest waiting for the expansion to release so you don’t burn out

stillwater, do games w Looks like someone figured out a workaround for Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 offline mode on Windows

It’s just an environment variable?? If that’s all it takes, there’s no reason this can’t have been implemented across the board.

rikudou,
@rikudou@lemmings.world avatar

Well, there’s a huge reason! Those who decide such things should be in the game judge others by what they would do and because they’re bunch of thieves, they think everyone is. They’re also tech illiterate enough to think this will actually stop someone from pirating the game.

Now, this is cool. Gonna grav deck right now
