There's a growing number of games that have apparently fallen foul of Steam's 'No because we say so' rule that are still being happily sold on other major storefronts like GOG.

Also recently DreadXP-published game Vile was outright rejected by Steam too, despite containing *nothing* objectionable.
Vile Is Banned

Really wild situation here: a celebrated and well-regarded indie dev and publisher is facing shutdown because Valve banned their game from Steam and won't talk to them about it, at all.

Not to be a dick, but the whole "the latest X update proves Ian Miles Cheong doesn't post from the US!" discourse just proves how short people's memories and how inept they are at the most basic level of research.

The games industry has known for 15 years that he isn't in the US. With proof.

I would eat frozen food that had been heated up and then cooled to room temperature.

However, I would not eat frozen food that had been left out and warmed up to room temperature.

In the grand scheme of things, this meeting was Tremendous Content, and like most Tremendous Content, it's Coke Zero politics. Mamdani comes out way ahead, Trump made a fool of his viziers and his strongest soldiers, and none of this will matter next week.

Wow. I looked up the EIC who was running PC Accelerator at this time and would have overseen the development and publishing of this "parody" ad

Not only is he still in games, some of you are working for him right now

Love to see assholes in this industry always failing up

This is, definitively, the worst thing ever published in a video game magazine. It's a fake advertisement for a nonexistent Age of Empires II parody titled Age of Consent II: The Age of Kink.

This cursed image is from the May 2000 issue of PC Accelerator.

There's still screenshots of CliffyB talking about jailbait in the Something Awful forums floating around on the internet
there were multiple different countdown clocks until the Olsen twins turned 18

reddit had its infamous 'jailbait' community online until late 2011

all of this shit was just out in the open, it was awful
I feel like maybe it’s a function of everyone online being born in 2002 but I don’t think most people realize how openly and explicitly pedophilic american culture was until like… maybe 10 years ago
