Not sure why delisting it is a good idea, SEGA.

Interesting...

I thought the Steam guidelines were strict on making sure there was AI disclosure? 🤔
smilkyshake.com smilky🐻 @smilkyshake.com · 17h
For people unaware and playing/streaming Where Winds Meet, it uses GenAI for NPC chat bots, and let's you import a photo of yourself and a voice clip for character creation, which I'm sure I don't need to explain why that is fucked up

And no AI disclosure on Steam 🙃

Not surprised.

Their inconsistencies with applying their rules is well-documented, and asking for a modicum of fairness for one game's denial blows the door wide open for previous denials.
dominictarason.com Dominic Tarason @dominictarason.com · 13h
Called it. Even if their rules make no sense and the game now adheres to them perfectly, Valve will not budge on this.

Apparently these rules are 100% set in stone and immutable. Which is why Vile, a game with photos and no nudity *is* blocked, while Immortality - full FMV sex scenes - is alllowed

UPDATE: Valve responds, saying the decision not to ship Horses on Steam is "final"

After publishing this article, I've heard from many that CR seems to be using AI to produce dub CCs. Now, thanks to a slip-up CR had with episode 6 dub of The Banished Court Magician, we can say that with 100% certainty: Crunchyroll is using the AI service Ollang.com for its dub closed captions!

I recall the same thing happening to Final Girl Games' VILE: Exhumed earlier this year. No chance for appeal either.

Incredibly shitty by Valve/Steam, but I guess we should give thanks for alternative PC platforms like GOG and Itch.

Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

EXCLUSIVE: So far it's been unclear what proof Rockstar Games has to justify its firing of 34 union members, who it claims were leaking "confidential information in a public forum".

PMG has now seen some of the messages which contributed to this decision being made.

Maybe not useless, but funny that it was the immediate first thing I thought of: *Kira* Miki is the only character in VA-11 HALL-A that's been officially voiced.

Adriana Figueroa sings as the character on the VA-11 HALL-A EX: Bonus Tracks album for three of her songs.

A while ago, I asked people on bluesky to tell me the name of the movie Koyaanisqatsi without looking up the spelling. I made a musical algorithm based on the answers.

I figure I owe you a demo of what it sounds like!

It's for my game Rhytm Doggo: store.steampowered.com/app/4090240/...

My original WW town is lost to time (farewell Hyrule), but I do remember starting a new one via an emulated version on my Steam Deck... which I've also ignored for the last year. 😅

Learned about what's happened with Starlight Re:Volver.

I played the game during a previous Next Fest, and it was fairly interesting, but wasn't really my jam.

And it appears that not many people bought in to experience it either, as it will transition to an offline game with no further updates.
Hi, everyone - this post has some major updates regarding Starlight Re:Volver, Pahdo Labs' future priorities as a studio, and what this means to our players. Our Current Situation is Difficult To begin with some context to be as honest as possible to our community, Starlight Re:Volver did not sell well enough to sustain our studio operations. We had a lacklustre spread despite a strong number of wishlists and a strong community of early playtesters. We acknowledge a large part of this was due to the quality of the game itself; we had ambitious goals of making a bustling social hub with a robust roguelite gameplay system, but we spread ourselves too thin. Our sales numbers are a reflection that the game wasn't fun enough to sustain a consistent, healthy player base. Consequently, we recently had to cut half of our development team, shift the entire team to working remotely, and had numerous discussions on how to best move forward with the game and what could realistically save our studio from shutting down. That brings us to the present day: we concluded that incremental, monthly changes to Starlight Re:Volver wouldn't move the needle enough for us to "save" this game or our studio. Maintaining Starlight Re:Volver as we have done is not a viable path forward, business-wise for our studio, and we need to go back to the drawing board to ultimately make something our community will enjoy. We understand we disappointed many Divers throughout this process and cannot overstate how much we appreciate everyone who played the game regardless of the outcome. If the opportunity comes, we promise to return the generosity in the future by rewarding our existing players (sorry...we need to be vague on the details but for those who bought the game, we promise it won't be for nothing if we survive). Starlight Re:Volver will still be available to play Starlight Re:Volver will still be available to all users who purchased the game and will continue to be available for purchase. However, the game will no longer receive updates and will transition to be an offline game. Our online servers take a significant amount of money and resources to maintain on top of regular updates, and we cannot sustainably keep up this cadence with our team size with the returns we are getting. While the game will still be playable, the following changes will take effect: - Starlight Re:Volver will no longer be hosted on online servers and will be offline (solo) by early December - All players who purchase or purchased Starlight Re:Volver automatically unlock all dekos (cosmetics) ever made by default - We will continue to fix major bugs and make technical and infrastructure improvements on occasion - We do not plan on offering Japanese, Chinese, etc. localization unless we see greater player counts from those regions What to Expect Next As mentioned above, we'll be keeping our heads down with prioritizing our plans for next steps and will share more when we feel we are ready to do so. The next time you hear any major updates from us will probably be around February. We understand that this is a disappointment to our existing community, but we hope to eventually regain the love and trust we've received in the future. Thank you, Divers. – Pahdo Labs
