Valve have added a new rule to the Onboarding guide for game developers, noting that payment processors get a say in what stays on Steam.

Newly added rule is:

Content that may violate the rules and standards set forth by Steam’s payment processors and related card networks and banks, or internet network providers. In particular, certain kinds of adult only content.

:/ payment processors strike again (slippery slope etc)

Whelp, time to pirate!

Not that most 'adult' games on steam are worth it, they're mostly objectifying shit that wouldn't know what consent and boundaries were if it kissed them on the mouth and they felt uncomfortable with it.

Nor would they know what good writing, acting or realistic sex etc is either.

Removed removed, or removed only for the prude American banks?
