Then why isn’t Valve a Bank⸮
Steam is OK with porn games. Banks are not. Banks have the power. Steam has to not get debanked.
I fully expect to have to download a patch from the dev when buying a porn game because of the censorship. If its not on Steam or a few other trusted platforms I won’t bother paying.

They probably have more cash money than a lot of banks who haven’t fully marked the value of their assets to market value since about 2008. I don’t actually have a list of who’s who, but creative accounting has been an open secret for some time and will likely become fashionable again either this year or next. Unless someone wants a banking crash or (more likely) is just too stupid to hire anyone that can stop one.

Because they’d need to be a third payment provider on top of visa and master card to make a real difference in this regard.

Let’s be clear, I have no problems with valve’s policies.
I’m only remarking on the irony that porn developers might have an easier time because they can intentionally develop the clean version of their game to pass review without having to declare any contents at all.

I don’t see why bigger companies couldn’t employ the same tactic other than their clientele is more technically inept.
