Makes sense. Without infrared, you could just do basically anything else on a hacked 3DS or one of those Chinese flash carts you can get essentially for free through aliexpress

Santa Ragione spoke up, but how many more won't because of this exact problem? If you're a primarily PC developer, Steam *is* your lifeblood. Steam might be great for consumers but they are absolutely, 100% a monopoly and it isn't healthy that their competitors are not viable.

Spike Chunsoft is a relatively large publisher/developer, so Valve budged. That’s not the case with this and other smaller developers, so they feel they have effectively no reason to change their minds, or allow a resubmission on good faith. The only thing transparent is their disdain.

sometimes porn games are allowed to be there. sometimes they aren't. (esp if they're from asia 🙃)

sometimes a game is deemed porn when it isn't. (esp if they're queer 🙃)

sometimes a game is allowed, and makes it all the way to the point where people can buy it. then all of a sudden, it isn't!!!

You might not have cared about porn games with no story. You might not have cared about porn games with story. You might not have cared about story-based games with sparse erotic content. You may not have cared about independent horror games. But whatever you do care about will be the line of fire.

It’s the same as the situation with Nintendo. People’s biggest complaints were joycons and, get this, slop on the store.

But then the other shoe dropped and everyone became deranged about Nintendo because they “could do no wrong”

We’re watching Valve’s other shoe drop right now. You will care.
