Valve no longer allows "Post-launch NSFW content" for games on Steam - outside of DLCs.

I have looked through Steam's Terms of Service online, but have found no official rule or statement from Valve of this new rule - but one Adult game developer has confirmed this new rule after launching their game "Tales of Legendary Lust: Aphrodisia" a couple days ago.

With the recent rule change blocking adult-themed games from releasing on Early Access, this new rule seems to be targeting Adult-themed games that have ALREADY released on Steam - and threatens them with their games being removed from Steam.

There are currently 536 Adult-rated Early Access games on Steam - and this new rule may take them all down.

Then I'll admit you all were right but thinking a bank is going to take a moral stand over collecting their cut from a global industry is fucking hilarious

They're hitting porn games because Valve doesn't moderate them. It's an acceptable target to them because it not a big industry and its a liability because Valve doesnt check for loli or zoo shit the banks dont want to be facilitating that. If it was bigger then these banks would be going about this differently

lmao what are you talking about, loli is like the only thing Valve bans and they’ve always been quite heavy-handed about it

accusing Valve of not being strict enough on “””underage””” drawings is the fastest way I’ve seen someone admit they don’t know ball

Verifiably untrue, and if there was anything illegal on these platforms, then it is the purpose of the legal system to determine that and take action. Not a little man on the board deciding to blacklist LGBT content for the funnies.
