CommissarMega posted:I mean, I'm not opposed to sex (in videogames or otherwise), and honestly, if Steam wants to sell tittygames they should have the balls (again, can't think of a sex joke) to let people post the uncensor patches or sell the games unadulterated. Supposedly this runs afoul of content laws in several countries Valve does business in. They'd have to region lock those games and maybe not even make them visible in the store.

Bert of the Forest posted:This has been removed from Steam, by the by. Valve was quick on this one, at least. The developer has apparently been going on a tirade about it too, claiming it shouldn't have been removed because it's apparently a "satire" ABOUT pedophilia, not condoning it. Yet the other horrible one linked on the previous page that is openly about incest AND paedophilia is still there.

I think Higurashi is the one you're probably thinking of. It has a very well written story but the graphics look like bad MS Paint in a lot of it. Clannad was super popular when the anime version came out and is considered a classic, but yeah it's also pretty ugly.

Kindred Spirits on the Roof is being targeted and, from what I've read, is no worse than Mass Effect. And it was put up uncensored with approval from Valve. Christine Love has also confirmed that she's heard nothing regarding Ladykiller in a Bind being pulled which is just as explicit than many of these and also completely uncensored.

Old Boot posted:That's Scorn, yes, which basically looks like a straight-up loveletter to body horror, and the aforementioned artistic aesthetic. It was announced at roughly the same time as Agony, I think, which made mixing up the two even easier. Scorn sadly looks extremely dull and generic in the gameplay department. The aesthetics are amazing though,

Yep that was the point of it. As that interview points out, Ellison was heavily involved in the writing side of it though not much else and had to approve of everything that went in. Though the interview says he didn't object to much, Ellison seems like he was the type who would have spoken up if he didn't like any of the ideas presented to him. Thanks for linking that btw. It changes my impression of the man a bit.

I really wish I could find some because I suspect it would be a fascinating read. PC gaming was fairly big in Japan in the 1980s with quite a few domestic systems (like the original Metal Gear 1 and 2 were games for a Japanese computer system called the MSX) but died by the 90s for quite a few reasons: -arcades remained big in Japan and arcade games tended to transition to consoles instead of PCs -conformity: Japan's culture is all about fitting in so once consoles became the accepted norm, most of gaming followed -big business: the PC developers were mostly gobbled up by growing console companies. Small companies do not last long in Japan before being absorbed or dying. -the aforementioned piracy: as PC gaming became more and more niche, gamers started pirating games more. Half due to the costs and half due to games simply being harder to get a hold of as the console monopoly took hold. Most games were western developed so they had to be imported. -social stigma: as the PC market shrunk, the only developers staying on PC were making erotic games that the consoles would never allow on their systems. -real estate: most Japanese homes are pretty small by western standards, not allowing for what a lot of us consider a gaming space. There's also the fact that most Japanese adults do not spend much time at home during the work week. Even current consoles are in decline in Japan due to this with the main exception being the Switch (which can be played when commuting by train or bus) PC essentially became synonymous with porn and piracy.

I'm not so sure. They hardly had any domestic PC development going, only arcade. Porting from arcade to PC was pretty rare in the 80s (though it did happen.)

Dark_Swordmaster posted:I heard that they have costumes just as flagrant but they're hidden behind hundreds of dollars worth of DLC costume packs. This. Basically DOA has been "toning it down" to levels EVO considers respectable since at least 4. It's just that the requirements get stringier the older the average fighting game scene audience member gets (and the fact they want to stream on services like Twitch who have their own set of requirements as well.) With the skimpy outfits being DLC, they won't be used in tournaments.

Kchama posted:I don't think the lawsuit would be trouble otherwise, but from what I've been hearing, there's a lot of rumors rumblings that GOG's financial situation is surprisingly bad, and that an expensive lawsuit might be a straw that breaks the camel's back. GOG just let around a dozen staff go and cut their fair price program, citing financial difficulties. My guess is Cyberpunk is being managed as well as Witcher 3 was (W3 apparently had six project managers all with their own vision for the game and did almost bankrupt the studio even with the significant art grants CDPR got solely for the franchise.) They basically run themselves close to the red line or just below it and hope the game release saves them.
