So apparently Valve has yet again decided to ban/forbid a game from being released on Steam while claiming it "sexualizes minors" in spite of the games doing no such thing. The most recent victim of this is The Expression: Amrilato, an educational game about a girl who finds themselves in a land where people only speak Esperanto. Before this we also had the game "key to home" which was forbidden from being released on steam for the same reason.
Does anybody actually care? Everyone just pirates VNs and proprietary are bad anyway.
I for one wholeheartedly support any banning of games connected with Esperanto.
>>13535 The people who produce these games have bills to pay too you know.
>>13537 DLSite is a thing, even has an English storefront. Doesn’t change that westerners are overwhelmingly pirates and that VN developers usually get paid by the company unless it’s doujin stuff.
>>13536 It’s a cool idea, but nobody uses it as more than a hobby and despite how easy learning it is total immersion is almost impossible.
>>13539 It's not a cool idea at all.
>>13540 If people didn’t just use Chinese, Spanish, English or French and language death wasn’t common because of this, a constructed language that you can become fluent in 150 hours is a pretty interesting idea.
I don't see steam banning anime games as a problem. It will simply create demands for alternative anime game distribution platform and you'll get your shitty nukige all the same. I'd even argue that it's a good thing because the less h-game there is on mainstream platforms, the less mainstream attention is on it, which mean less people are likely to start a controversy. The actual problems with in-game content censoring because you may not be able to access it in any other way but then private companies have the right to do so.
>>13534 Does it really do that?
