life is shit, you are shit, kill yourself you filthy gamer - sincerely visa

[skykiii]

Those titles are really making it hard to feel too bad not gonna lie, but the problem is I expect this could be used against milquetoast things.

Exactly. "First they came for the porn games, and I said nothing because I didn't make or play porn games..."

When they start deciding that Doom Eternal is to be delisted because it depicts demons from Hell, or decide Tomb Raider needs to be taken down because showing a woman in action situations could theoretically be somebody's fetish, it will be too late.

It's weird that they didn't go after Life is Strange 2 for the sex scene between minors.

 

[Illuminati Order Official]

This situation has a potential to make both gooners and payemt processor suffer. I don't see how it's a bad thing,

 

[peachlover669]

this is on their front page just above it it says "ban porn on X"

not a bad idea, i may actually use twitter if theres no porn
TOTAL GOONER DEATH

 

[X Prime]

Not just that, but it would likely revive Bluesky from its death spiral, providing plenty of lefty lolcow entertainment for years to come.

I am conflicted here.

 

[rusty_von_shackleford]

to be fair, itch allows all kinds of stuff. can't remember if the entries are paid, but there's a LOT of shovelware and non-mainstream games on there.

Only if it conforms to the ideological views of the owner.

"safe horny", just like Baldur's Gate 3. They appeal to female sexuality/homosexuality/"queerness".

Thoughtful, however Bluesky deserves no success and only downfall. A worthy sacrifice of lols

 

[homophobic fujoshi]

This is clearly bigger than one group lobbying for this stuff. There's been a cultural shift and I don't think it's going away. People who defend porn with saying it's always existed forget to mention that until few generations ago, the only "porn" the average person could access was some pinup photo or erotic novel. Now every 14y.o. is so desensitized they can't get off without gaping and incest storylines. Only a retard can't see that porn has been incredibly destructive to society and if nothing is done, we will keep spiraling into further and further degeneracy until collapse.

IDK what should be done about it. In my ideal world hc porn would be completely banned while there would be some well-defined category of softcore erotica allowed. It feels ironic that a lot of the games that will get censored due to this will be some visual novels that are actually pretty tame despite featuring some incest storylines or whatever. Meanwhile OF and Pornhub keep ruining society and the attempt to get these companies to drop them lasted like a week. Maybe (((Big Porn))) is just eliminating competition.

 

[Agarathium1066]

You make it sound like it's not possible to hate both those groups. There is room in your heart to hate both the coombrained and the wannabe tyrants who use them as a pretext for censorship. You need to look inward, and find that extra capacity for hatred that you've always had but never used.

I'd be fine with them doing this if I wasn't certain their next steps are to go for more and more things that they personally don't like. Sure it'll start with degenerate bullshit few will miss. Most will applaud them for that then they'll continue to ratchet up the pressure. They don't stop at reasonable lines.

 

[Colon capital V]

This.

The collapse of AAA after ESG ended, and the success of games like Palworld and Schedule 1 pisses off the establishment no end. Game journo smears didn't work. Cancel campaign didn't work. Lawfare isn't working. This is the next option.

Are you saying feet inflation fart BBW giantess tickle fetishists are actually beating out traditional pornography videos and photos?

I think I need to sit down if it's come to this...

 

[Lone MacReady II]

This whole "protecting muh brand" thing the processors go on about is a load of shit.

When someone gets busted buying illegal shit with a credit card, I'm not thinking "damn that visa, can't believe they allowed this!"

Irony is I don't doubt for a second the head honchos themselves are on the epstein list in some compacity.

MasterCard openly supports the NGOs who are niggering up Europe with the consent of their judeo-communized State governments.

ESG ended

Shit didn't end in the slightest. Larry "Zion #1" Fink is mandating B.R.I.D.G.E. as corporate common core as we speak. D.E.I. is at least being talked about, but B.R.I.D.G.E. is far worse, and they are trying to keep the flak off of that kikery big time.

 

[Tom Malvoro Riddle]

The Jews have been pushing to normalize degeneracy for as long as we have all lived, they want children to see gay AIDS infested black men fucking each other in public pride parades...

...But apparently now they need to shut down any media they don't fully control that may contain adult themes?

Why?

My theory is competition. They control the porn industry, the AAA game industry, Hollywood, Netflix, OnlyFans, Twitch Thots. They want everyone to be addicted to their degenerate slop. So, they get rid of anything that completes with their propaganda empire.

But that's just a theory, a game theory.


Anyway, it's fucked, I'm so sick of everything being destroyed or censored or secretly altered. Soon there won't be anything left but faint memories of what used to be.

You are so fucking stupid holy shit

 

[Forsaken Wanderer]

You are so fucking stupid holy shit

Care to explain?

Do you really think that yet again some tiny group nobody had ever heard of is capable of making giant changes like this?

 

[Thiletonomics]

The collapse of AAA after ESG ended, and the success of games like Palworld and Schedule 1 pisses off the establishment no end. Game journo smears didn't work. Cancel campaign didn't work. Lawfare isn't working. This is the next option.

The real next options are:

• They start hiring either Indian, Pakistani, or South Korean pilots to intentionally crash airliners into indie gaming studios, because no one would suspect those of doing it intentionally and only say that it's because they're either incompetent or a mechanical failure happened.
• They hire a Timothy McVeigh Stan to recreate the Oklahoma City bombing on one.
• They convince one of those employees at those indie gaming studios to pull a KyoAni arson.
• They hire Mossad to jerryrig indie gaming studio cellphones into exploding all at once.
• In the case of Chinese studios, they contact the CCP to convince the CCP to disappear the studio and its employees.

And no Daw or Bazz from Concord on that poll, 0/10 poll.

Yeah, maybe

But I also think those games make too much money for that to realistically happen.

 

[ChefKiss]

Do you have the exact rulings on this? What do they disallow (or attempt to, under their criteria) in these games?

I know it's probably anything they don't like arbitrarily, and probably stated vaguely so that they can forbid anything they want to, but what are they claiming? (e.g: pornography, violence with guns, etc)?

The exact wording is that they will remove ANYTHING payment processors don't like. It doesnt say anything about certain types of porn or porn in general, literally just anything at all payent processors want gone for any reason

 

[SSj_Ness (Yiffed)]

Voted Aloy, because she looks half decent in the first game.

 

[skykiii]

Yeah, maybe

"Realistic" has no meaning anymore. In the nineties the kind of shit we're seeing now would be called unrealistic and the product of an overly cynical mind. And yet we've seen what happens.

 

[Peep Plops]

Hahahahahah good, fuck you gooners!

 

[geckogoy]

Exactly. "First they came for the porn games, and I said nothing because I didn't make or play porn games..."

To be honest rallying around the porn game flag a couple years back made gamers look like retarded perverts and was actually very counterproductive
