Whether you believe a platform should get backlash for platforming something in questionable taste and legality is entirely separate to whether they actually will.

well of course. if the state said take it down it would be different but this situation does not seem to have any legal issues.

The majority of countries where Steam sells games have strict laws regarding the depiction of minors in any kind of situation which could be considered sexual, whether it’s a real child or not. It’s a very strange hill to die on when the devs clearly identified that was the issue and removed it from their game.

Im pretty much always against censorship. As described it does not sound sexual as its just nudity and this riding thing. I mean nobody talks about lady gadiva like she fucked a horse. The hill to die on is weird to me to use in this situation. Its one conversation about something that neither of us has any ability to effect.

Not wanting to sell a product isn’t censorship of the product. That’s a fundamental misunderstanding of what censorship is.
