Pedos should know that violence is more acceptable than sexual themes, so saying “but what about DOOM 2016?? do people who play it become sociopaths, huh???!!” doesn’t do shit for them.

And I, personally, would very much prefer that pedoshit never becomes more socially acceptable than murdering demon-zombie-soldiers.

The artist draws loli. He likes drawing them in bondage with whips. There's so much fap fuel in the trailer alone.

Yup. I got curious over this and decided to do some searching. The artist for this VN game is "Muk" of the group "Monsieur", and makes loli doujinshi. I fucking knew that art style looked familiar. Just skimming some listings, looks like all his works are loli so the tones in the VN make sense. They hired a hentai artist that strictly, or near that level, does only loli work. But the game's totally not pedophilia in any way, no siree.

The whole steam thread is a giant salt mine but I think this guy struck gold.

It doesn't get better than a guy called loli vomit with that kind of profile picture get offended when get called a pedophile

I have no words for this one.

Lmao those Redditors are completely missing the point. Valve didn’t ban the game because they thought they would break the law by hosting it or because they are “SJWs who care for the rights of fictional characters”, they banned the game because it’s fucking disgusting pedoshit which would ruin their image if it were hosted.

Pretty much. In fact, if I remember the legalities over it correctly(trust me, I could totally be wrong, I looked this up a good few years ago out of mild curiosity), drawn porn depicting the underage isn't strictly illegal in all states of the U.S.. In fact, the legality of it, if I'm remembering what I read once, is primarily dependent on the state's own laws. For example, Florida(last I knew), classifies drawn loli work as technically child porn.

However, just talking about and defending the subject would make anyone look fucking disgusting. I think 4chan had that one along with the "no western" drawn porn rule*, because combating the legalities of it just weren't worth the effort and overall it made the site look worse.

*I think, I don't even know the state of 4chan today other than it's apparently become trashier by popular opinion

I totally support Valve's decision. They don't want to broadcast any unintended messages, like giving people a reason to think Valve, or some fraction of Valve, supports pedophilia. Best to nip that shit in the bud before the wrong signals get sent and people start reeeeing.

Dear idiots:

Free speech does not obligate others to tacitly endorse viewpoints and content they find objectionable. In fact, that is the exact opposite of free speech.

QQ moar, faggots; you're going to have to switch to boys to get any kind of traction with the pervert-normalization crowd.
That's the thing. Steam is a business platform that can host whatever they want. Its entirely within Valve's right to decide what they do and do not allow on their own platform, and they made their reasoning pretty clear. I'd be curious to hear the rationale behind people stating that Steam HAS to host this game because of free speech.

Personally I don't give a shit about what happens to drawn children and imaginary people in general but still, laws are laws. Also, they seriously admitted in the game's description that it is for little girl lovers, that's some Darwin award stuff right there.

While I don't condone or endorse it, I don't think drawn anything should be illegal, as it doesn't involve or harm actual people. Legal or not, doesn't make its fans not complete degenerates. But laws on it are all over the place, at least in the U.S. so it's a risky thing either way, depending on your state.

And outright saying something like that in the game description is not going to attract the kind of audience that anyone should want. I'm not big on the whole VN thing anyway but Steam has a right to protect its brand's reputation in this case, regardless of whether or not the game in question is legal.

The Visual Novel influx on Steam as a whole is too much. I like a couple but most are trash and hardly count as games.
Having the ability to buy japanese games via Steam isn't so bad and even though I'm not a fan of VNs, I don't think they should be kept off of Steam on principle... but unfortunately, there's a flood of mediocre shovelware (well, that's not limited to VNs sadly) and every now and then, you get someone trying to get their creepy loli-waifu simulator on there.
Most the shitty VNs flooding Steam are Chinese or Western. The one is question is obscure dōjin soft which should have never left the Comiket table. Thanks Steam Greenlight!

Also legal: not selling a shitty visual novel.
