Subverb, do games w 'Oh god': There's a buried Steam help page that shows how much money you've ever spent on the platform, and you may not want to know

If you dig you can find this on Amazon. I’ve been buying from Amazon since 1995 and the last time I looked my purchases were somewhere around $260,000. And that was before covid.

Do you have a link? I’ll start looking, will edit this comment if I find it.

Edit: Link to Steam total spend: help.steampowered.com/en/…/AccountSpend

Edit: This seems to be how to do it for Amazon: www.amazon.com/hz/privacy-central/…/preview.html - My data hasn’t come through yet so I don’t know how difficult it is to get the sum of all orders/refunds.

6.5k in 15 years. I did spend a lot when I was younger.

glitches_brew,

I’m at about the same amount. Kinda shocking to see it.

I had to remember that I bought an Index and Steam Deck on Steam so that has definitely inflated the amount I’ve spent compared to the 3rd party valuation lol

Oh great. Nothing is safe from the Trans Am agenda.

tal, do gaming w Developer of 'non-consensual sex' game withdraws it from Steam after bans in the UK, Canada, and Australia

No Mercy included “incest,” “blackmail,” and “unavoidable non-consensual sex,” according to its Steam page, which also promised players the opportunity to become “every woman’s worst nightmare” and “never take ‘no’ for an answer.”

This doesn’t bode well for Pale Carnations making it onto Steam.

Good. Honestly most games in the sex space are pretty bad for both consent and treating the characters like actual people.

The dialogue is pretty unrealistic too.

The only good one we have come across so far is Cute Demon Crashers. It is heavily about consent and the writing isn’t that bad either. True, it’s not going to be ‘realistic’ in terms of character models nor have fully fleshed out sex scenes but since most in that genre seem to be terrible in general perhaps that is a good thing.

tonyn,

Are you good with the games that involve killing other people against their consent?

SweetCitrusBuzz,
@SweetCitrusBuzz@beehaw.org avatar

I can do them, but honestly I would prefer to have played through many without such a mainstay of games. It just often gets in the way of what I am really there for: the story. Plus it’s becoming more and more gruesome.

I think though killing and rape are not exactly the same. Women are historically treated very poorly in game spaces, both in games and outside of them. This kind of thing just adds to it and honestly makes me question what the developers are really like.

As someone else said “check whether there are women in the developer’s dungeon”.

MagicShel,

I’m not sure I’d wonder any more about those developers than anyone else.

Without getting into TMI I very much enjoy non consent fantasy to the point where I had a CNC relationship with my wife for the first five years. And two things I’ve learned about myself are: I’m not physically capable of even play rape, and that having the power was much more fun and exciting than exercising the power.

So to me it feels perfectly normal to be aroused by fantasy rape but not at all by the manifestation of it. I’m sure it’s not mainstream or anything, and there are a lot of people out there, like Andrew Tate, who are exactly what they say they are.

I think it’s fine to look into it and see which is the case, but I personally wouldn’t expect to find any girls in basements who aren’t there consensually based on the content of their games.

lath, do games w Path of Exile 2's disastrous new update reveals the core tension at the heart of its design: How do you make a game with meaningful combat when everyone just wants to blast monsters?

I think that “slow” doesn’t work for a live service game simply because it’s a live service game.

Sabata11792, do games w The Simple Act of Buying a Graphics Card Is the Defining Misery of PC Gaming in 2025

I saved up 2k over a year for a 5090. Gave up and bought a last gen AMD card with a waifu on it and may get a new phone with the left over.

Matriks404, do games w The Simple Act of Buying a Graphics Card Is the Defining Misery of PC Gaming in 2025

IDK. I see plenty of RTX 3060’s and 4060’s around for relatively cheap, but I didn’t follow the evolution of PC components in years, and my GTX 1060 still works, lol.
