Maybe we should just do it. Idk if I have the skills but I’d be willing to contribute. I’m tired of this paradigm, grandpa.

A federated game distribution platform would be cool. Something no one can own. I dont think that will happen in our capitalist world. But I also dont think this particular problem would be solved by that.

If you burn someone like that, they aren’t going to accept do overs. “Sorry for what you perceived as CSAM” doesn’t work.

This all happened because they had a literal child riding one of the naked adults on a lead and then wanted to play dumb. I dont agree with Steam practically controlling the PC market, but this one is a case of the developers stepping on their own rake and then turning around and saying “look what they’ve done to me!” I don’t know why this is such an unpopular opinion. But I digress. Because in actuality I would simply not buy the game, I don’t actually care if it is available on Steam, I’m just saying having a kid ride a naked adults shoulders is very obviously not going to pass their content checks.

What 8 wars? The only dudes who got tax cuts were already rich. Bill come get your bottom out of the white house.

No, we should all start fighting the class war and literally target Thiel and Andreesan to start before they take our society away from us. Because they wont stop once they crumble the US, they’ll only move on to the next corpse.

Sounds like a business discussion was not had if they really are “serious abiut their product” like horses.wtf says they are. Thousands of games go on there each year and dont have this problem.
- Comment on An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores 1 week ago:
Plus horses.wtf has pages of rants. Its not adding up.
- Comment on An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores 1 week ago:
What systemic problems? The systemix problem of distributors not distributing games with children interacting with naked adults? Thats not a fucken problem unless you’re a libertarian. The porn game crusade is a huge problem. This is not that. I don’t believe this is the game that will push through complete freedom of creation. I also dont believe our current public zeitgeist is ready to handle the complex questions that arise from content like this. I didnt even say I didnt like the game. I havent played it. I’m sure its as thought provoking as Solarium or SOMA. But acting like this is a moral panic overreach of sensorship is a little much when its still available on one of the biggest game marketplaces available AND you’ll get the offline installer for it. Go play it. I just might after all this and see what the hubub is actually about.
- Comment on An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores 1 week ago:
Here: https://www.gog.com/en/game/horses play the game. There, thats a major marketplace right there and literally the best one.
- Comment on An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores 1 week ago:
Who is self censoring here? Horses.wtf states the game is available in an unchanged state elsewhere. Just not on Steam or Epic. They’re big ass corpos. Dont know why this is shocking or why people want them to be forced to sell it. Valve was never your vanguard for self expression or art exploration.
- Comment on An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores 1 week ago:
Its their platform. In what world can you force people to sell shit they dont want to sell? You can literally go buy it and experience the art right now. But its not on Steam with achievements and friends seeing me play it so fuck it? Lmao what logic is this?
- Comment on An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores 1 week ago:
Yeah and what I am saying is this is stupid shit to do that for. Someone tried to make a “grotesque story experience” and they got too close for comfort for main stream distributors. You can still acquire the game, just not on these platforms. You can still play it in its intended state, just not on those platforms. So what you are arguing for really is for Steam and Epic to distribute this.
- Comment on An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores 1 week ago:
Go to horses.wtf is you really want to know more. I myself dont think this is a hill worth dying on.
- Comment on An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores 1 week ago:
I for sure would not have seen this game if it werent for these articles. So maybe its part of the plot. Capitalism strikes again?
- Comment on An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores 1 week ago:
Yeah all I am saying is this isn’t surprising. It should have been expected. I doubt you will ever be able to put a child model in a game next to nude adukt models and not get your game pulled from mainstream marketplaces. Thats just the current reality we live in and is not surprising. I mysslf dont think its offensive. But again this outcome is completely expected.
- Comment on An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores 1 week ago:
Yeah cause the content that made headlines was changed. So you won’t see it by playing you had to read into why. Look, I’ll get down on some Futa Femboy House. Lets go. But maybe lets not involve kids and nudity in the global community, thats a recipe for disaster. Either way, that will for sure get you delisted and you cant act surprised in this capitalist, bland-shit-to-widest-audience world. What just happened will happen to you. Maybe if they wanted it to be considered art, which I think might have gone better, present it aa that at a gallery or your own hosted site. Valve or any big corp is not going to fuck with that 100%. I’m just honestly surprised they’re surprised and this is making such a big splash.

- Comment on An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores 1 week ago:
I mean are you saying they should have left the game as is? Really dont understand your argument here. It seems this is more just bad taste rather than a moral panic.
- Comment on An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores 1 week ago:
Okay, cool. Do you think having a little girl talk to a naked horseman is something that would help sell the game? Or make it onto a marketplace anywhere? Thats why it was removed and they already tried to placate by makkng the girl an adult and that didnt work obviously. So whats your point here? Leave that content in the game? That doesnt solve the developers problem.
- Comment on An unsettling indie game about horses keeps getting banned from stores 1 week ago:
Terrible timing. There was just that payment processor panic with the porn games. Now you wanna have a kid talk to a naked man with a horse mask. I get its not sexual but read the room. It was clearly a bad idea even if it was meant to convey some profound message. Honestly I dont think that would have ever worked out. Its just whack.

- Comment on Is this a shitpost? 2 weeks ago:
Are you realistically going to stop them from posting? This seems circular in a way. Because you really aren’t unless you get the rules changed for an entire community specifically meant for no rules.

Yeah but does silence actually help at this point? Sure, no politic with your shit post. But in a general sense, silence probably won’t make things better either.
