If Matt Furie DMCAs that game, will everyone who bought it lose their horrible Pepe achievements?

Did he get that other one? Thank God. We should email him personally for this new one.

Probably not. If you owned the Rock and Roll Racing ripoff before it was taken down for music theft, you still kept it in your stuff. Anyone who has a thing gets it in perpetuity barring major upheaval.

You don't own a game or achievement. You license the former and Valve owns the latter. Valve could arbitrarily drop the Pepe achievements and players would have no recourse.

What are the odds that someone is using Steam’s unregulated indie market to launder money?

i mean you could but i get the impression that even for the cleanest and most legitimate money, valve's cut is way more than you would lose from a well-managed front business.

Steam's new anti-review bombing chart feature was implemented specifically after the problem reached DOTA 2.

We don't need to have that dialogue because it's obvious, trivial, and has already been had a thousand times.

Most of valve's policies for the steam marketplace are to attempt to deter the ongoing problem of money laundering using the platform- an issue effecting every electronic marketplace, especially gaming ones. So, yes, it's probably a thing.

Yeah, given a lot of prolific bad Steam games publishers have websites that are little more than a logo and an e-mail address, it seems likely.

Because that's how you promote your business to indie devs, zero information and no sales pitch, right?

A front business is much harder to run than slapping some garbage up on steam and then using bots to buy your garbage with stolen credit cards or whatever

I refuse to buy this game on the grounds that the anthropomorphic shark's face is clearly traced from My Little Pony. I have spent far too much time on the Internet.

You spend several minutes chasing pigs around to strap cameras to them in preparation for the nightshift, only for it to go wrong when the lanky idiot you're supposed to be hunting suddenly kills them and destroys the rest of your stuff without even being seen.

Just found out about this guy's YouTube channel (SidAlpha) where he publicly investigates, exposes, and name and shames asset flips. Trying to view some he's covered they're not on the Steam store anymore, So I guess there's slim hope.

A game so bad it was removed from the store but it absolutely has to stay on the books for download, since some poor fools actually parted with money for this one and might want to reinstall it for some reason.
