HuniePop and other adult games may be removed from the Steam store by Valve

Some words from Jim Sterling regarding this topic. Pretty reasonable exposition if you ask me,

Watch at man, who is burnt by your fireball, is ok. Blow up the head of your enemy with your sniper rifle is ok. But watch at boobs isn't okay. This is ridiculous. Look like some people have a reaaaly BIG inferiority complex.

Id actually be okay with this if they had tackled actual issues beforehand.

Its ridiculous how everything tries to be as pc as possible nowadays

Kinda sad. I have started playing Hunie Pop not long ago and it's fun but kinda horrible how it pictures women.

Many of the games targeted don't have any explicit sexual content at all.

In games like HuniePop's case, it's weird. Outside of the images you get when you get to "3rd base" with a girl, sex is barely, if ever, referenced. Outside of "what's your favorite position", you just play Match 3 and enjoy a fun little puzzle game and some really funny jokes.

In Reddit people are theorycrafting that this might be because Blizzard is pressured by some weird far right Christian group, anyone know anything about that?

So because these anime girls are cute and have small boobs they are underage. Just becasue there is sexual scenes means it should get banned. People need to get over it man. I've never played HuniePop but whatever... Its a game.

There are games with murder, rape, theft, racism, sexism and so much more yet those won't get touched because people don't like japanese animation...

My country' videogame news sources already claimed Steam backed out and my anime tiddies are fine for now.

It is pissing weebs off so I don't mind much

bump

this game will not be remove so :)

Steam store needs more stuff like Hatred rather than anime garbage.

All these moviments Are the cancer of the world, recentylly the spotify was to remove the RHCP and Aerosmith songs because some "song content" and bad words, i hate some kind ativists and ONG's but sadly these games are gonna to be removed from steam, i hope valve change his mind.

Sexual content is allowed on steam but no sexual content games. That epic logic -.-
The same like, as developer you are allowed to add sexual content pictures of the game to the store page but as buyer you are not allowed to publish sexual content pictures on your own profile. -.- Thats the logic of Valve ^^

You might want to update the first post to add the new news at least so people wouldn't needlessly panic.

To quote Hanako Games, "The list of games targeted includes Kindred Spirits, which was personally approved by Valve hand-checking every sexy image. It was the subject of a lot of PR. It is NOT a case of unknown porn that Valve just missed somehow, they approved it and now they are saying it’s not allowed."

From what I've heard, Kindred Spirits is about the most vanilla game you possibly could have made that includes sex scenes, too. It's a fluffy slice-of-life story about gay girls at a boarding school. The characters don't even have sexualized designs, for god's sake.

Well that's ridiculous

eh

FYI those aren't adult games.

Shit, dude...I don't have all the achievements or cards for HuniePop yet. Why should they be taken off? They have Mature listed, that should be enough, and if someone underaged buys it and plays it, well, that's on their parents for letting them have a Steam account and not keeping track of their purchases.

Frankly, this sorta things are called "fascism" in sane circles...

Edit: Before anybody helps me to the latest developments on the issue - this here instance of panic is neither blind or needless.
PCness just plain needs to die and the sooner the better. Censorship dogs, morality guardians and gun-grabbers terrify me T_T
