OH: "i love fear and hunger because the gameplay is "The horror. The horror..." and the fanbase makes shitty memes about how the characters are all bisexual and in a polycule, WHICH IS CANON, BECAUSE THE GAME COMES PREPACKAGED WITH A DATING SIMULATOR???"

(this is the best kind of community btw imho)

@endali going by the itch.io page, god damn it the sexual violence they mention probably got it flagged as adults only (which is somehow different from usk18) which means steam isnt allowed to “advertise” selling the game…. by giving it a store page at all, i loathe german laws

@coolbean yeah, the game is VERY explicit, I would not be surprised if it would be banned in australia too

@wakame @endali nay steam doesnt even bother anymore, its an actual german legal thing, explicitly adults only content such as porn is only allowed to be “sold under the counter” which is obviously not really possible on an online storefront unless you widen the definition (which the government refuses to)

its also only applied to steam so i can still get it on itch.io, so eh

Funnily enough, a lot of games with sexual content are still on german steam.
To me, this looks like a rather manual removal process.

@wakame @endali it could be that they still use the old workaround where the base game is censored enough to get by but they offer a patch that uncensors it

@wakame @coolbean @endali PS: GTA San Andreas did receive little reaction in Europe because it’s already rated PEGI 18 even after the Hot Coffee mod controversy that resulted in ESRB Adults Only rating in North American shelves.

Maybe there is a difference between "Strong Sexual Content"/"Nudity" (in the game "House Party") and the stuff that Steam blocks.
Seems rather random though.

And let's not forget TES: Oblivion where you could unpack a game file and replace an upper female chest (with a piece of cloth over the breasts) with an upper female chest that was entirely skin-colored. blobcatgiggle
