Wow, thanks for the recommendation! I will definitely check it out!

I don’t think they had much option, they forced by the payment providers…

And thats beyod me, why they have the power to enforce anything like this???

And what is absolutely beyond me, why a group of alt-right femminist from the other side of the globe has power to enforce the payment providers?

There all places. The problem is where to find adult games that are not pornographic, or morbid, but targeted to adults? Like games where the story conveys depression/suicide/death/griefing, or other difficult topics?

My biggest problem is, they banned with this method, all the games that are targeted for adults but not porn, or gore. Like they hate spicy food and banned all things that are not white rice and unseasoned chicken breast.

It was really hard to find deep philosophical games which are good and are not containing porn or gore, but targeted to adults. Now its imposaible. They have literraly no platform. Unlike the porn games, they have many aside from steam and itch.

So, I just wanted to play a VN, which has 0 porn in it, 0 nudity, 0 gore, and less sexual appeal than an average B rated christmas themed romantic comedy. It portrays negative feelings, and shows depression, and plays with deadth and suicide. This game is targeted for adults, it is not suitable for children, and it is now shadow banned.

Many many games like this has no platform, hardcore porn games has alternative platforms, normal games for kids has platforms, but games with actual meaningful deep content, which are targeted for adults are not.

I don’t care if someone wants to jerk off to a fictional character. I don’t care if someone wants to see fictional characters abused. They can and will find it on the internet, or god forbid us, if they manage to ban all, they will find it in real life. Its a hard topic if it is moral, or it better or worse to the overall population if these contents are existing, and widely available. It makes it harder that censoreship, freespeech and the oldnew “protect the children” argument is brought into the conversation.

Censorship is not inherently bad (EG a lemmy moderator basically a censorship enforcer)

“Protect the children” is, in my opinion is the responsibility of their guardian. Parental controll is so easy to set up nowadays. I don’t think this is the job of the goverment. And fictional children are not real, they do not exist. I find it personally disgusting to portray harm to fictional children, but they are not real to be protected, protect the real ones, we have many abused, trafficed, or even starved to death.

So I accidentaly put too many words into my fustration, that I cannot play the adult targeted game I wanted, because some alt-right femminist from the other side of the globe are scared of pixelart nipples…
