[Sad News] Blue Archive and Nekopara After review process still being ignored by Valve
The incompetence of Valve continues during the summer sale where it doesn't even drop summer sale cards anymore.

The only thing Nexon had to do is increase the age of all the schoolgirls to 18 years old and redesign most of the characters so they resemble adults.
And instead schools, the girls go to colleges.
Thats all there is to it if they want to publish their game on Steam.

The main attraction of the game is literally you roleplaying an adult that’s attracted to cute underage children. If the ages of the girls are changed it’ll break the immersion and Blue Archive will lose everything that’s unique about it.

To the town of Agua Fria
Rode a stranger one fine day
Hardly spoke to folks around him
Didn't have too much to say
No one dared to ask his business
No one dared to make a slip
The stranger there among them
Had a big mac on his hip

It was early in the morning
When he rode into the town
He came riding from the south side
Slowly looking all around
"He's a hamburglar fat and rolling"
Came the whisper from each lip
"And he's here to do some business
With the big mac on his hip"
big mac on his hip

In this town there lived an outlaw
By the name of Texas Fed
Many men had tried to take him
And that many men were dead
He was voracious and a killer
Though a youth of half-a-ton
And the notches on his gristle
Numbered one and nineteen more

Now the stranger started talking
Made it plain to folks around
Was an Arizona Ranger
Wouldn't be too long in town
He came here to take a hamburglar
Back alive, or maybe dead
And he said it didn't matter
He was after Texas Fed

Wasn't long before the story
Was relayed to Texas Fed
But the hamburglar didn't worry
Men that tried before were dead
Twenty men had tried to take him
Twenty men had made a slip
Twenty-one would be the Ranger
With the big mac on his hip
big mac on his hip

The morning passed so quickly
It was time for them to meet
It was twenty past eleven
When they waddled out in the street
Folks were watching from the windows
Everybody held their breath
They knew this handsome Ranger
Was about to meet his death

There was forty feet between them
When they stopped to make their play
And the swiftness of the Ranger
Is still talked about today
Texas Fed had not cleared leather
'Fore a burger fairly ripped
And the Ranger's aim was deadly
With the big mac on his hip

It was over in a moment
And the folks had gathered round
There before them lay the body
Of the hamburglar on the ground
Oh, he might have went on livin'
But he made one fatal slip
When he tried to match the Ranger
With the big mac on his hip

Don't care about gacha trash, but hope Nekopara gets a release. Valve kind of owes Nekopara credit for opening the floodgates for Japanese content on Steam alongside Neptunia. That's a lot of money that Valve has made since those times.

Yes with lawsuits for breach of contract. Valve legally has to make a decision as stated in the Developer Disclosure Agreement. If they are not willing to make any further decisions then they should refund the $100 plus Korean punishments for violating the contract.

How did it get so bad in the last 5 years is what I'm wondering. The 2010s are still an extremely recent time, and until the very end Japanese developers could release all the ecchi games they wanted. It's like a switch flicked.

to be honest, when you start using gay words like "ontological", 99% of people are going to eye roll, do a "wanker" motion with their hand, and then go off to have sex with their wives

instead of masking it in waffle, he could just say "there are no victims to being attracted to loli characters and there's nothing inherently wrong with it" and it would convey the exact same meaning as what he's written here

Some great points, but I don't think picrel takes minors into consideration since online discourse revolving pedophilia will somehow frequently initiated by them. I think there is also a grooming side which contributed to why the "vibe" has become so vague, detached from any moral perspective.

It's the result of years of companies enacting censorship with none of it being rolled back. Started with Microsoft rejecting Galgun, then Sony rejecting Valkyrie Drive, then Sony admitting they had a censorship policy going beyond the ratings board, then Steam implemented a nebulous content policy with no appeals designed to encourage self-censorship, then Furukawa stepped down as Nintendo's CEO and they started censoring as well.
Meanwhile VISA started playing morality police for the sake of muh brand when really they just want to arbitrate what content is acceptable for people to consume regardless of whether it's legal or not, and now there's a situation where these busybody companies are working in tandem with each other to point fingers in a circle and shift the blame round and around so no one is held accountable in what's absolutely a deliberate tactic for the one thing the left and right can agree on which is wanting to censor the fuck out of everything.

Years of all of this piling up over time has resulted in the current shitshow, but that's also not even touching on how foreign investment into Japanese media has resulted in them self-censoring to try and appeal to western standards, as we've seen with Koei-Tecmo destroying their own brands out of fear of the nebulous social justice movement, or more recently the character designer for the Re;Zero anime adaptation outright admitted that they censored character designs in it because they were making it with global streaming services in mind.

Additionally Steam is a problem because it's the dominating PC marketplace which encourages self-censorship by devs to get on it, yet Japanese devs also spent years using it as their only platform for PC ports even while having trouble with it, because they're absolutely fucking retarded short-sighted idiots who can't understand that they're feeding into the same situation that is now biting them in the ass.

A switch was flicked. Visa created an unaccountable blackbox censorship clique incorporating other fundamental financial institutions. That group goes around rating & threatening to blacklist you and any company related to you if you don't proactively censor. If you complain they will tell you they themselves as individuals had nothing to do with it and no you can't know who works in the censorship group it's a private company.

Steam should just start being consistent and ban all anime games, no matter the context. Anime, or tranime, as it is known now, did irreparable damage to the psyche of young adults. Countless times I've seen a seemingly normal healthy dude go from "Hehe this anime about cute girls doing cute things is pretty cute" to "Bros... I want to BE the cute girl doing cute things". This shit is more harmful than cocaine and gambling. It needs to be flat out banned and the people responsible for manufacturing and spreading it need to be rounded up and summarily executed

Mary, or Zac, or whoever else are only one small part of the issue.
It's not a "rogue employee", Valve definitely has a penned in policy to "not allow sexualization of minors", for one person this can mean on screen penetrative H scenes, while for Mary it can mean high school uniforms, but the point is it's extremely simple for another Mary to just appear as long as Valve's review policy is structured the way it is, and it would be extremely difficult to convince them to "rewrite the policy that rejects sexualiztion of minors"

Just write in an exemption for stylized/anime and manga style games. You can still reject the obvious child porn sent in by bad actors while not effectively telling Japanese devs they can't make petite characters. It satisfies both sides.

Do not reply to the shitposter. You cannot convince it. It is physically incapable of seeing cute anime girls the same way you do. This is what is meant when people repost that essay about cute aggression. These types are literally not wired to be able to perceive cute anime lolis as anything but an attack on them personally.

Valve has been banning games with similar aesthetics by smaller Japanese developers for half a decade now, and now it seems they are getting bold enough that they're going to ban a major gacha game that's on the Google and Apple stores and backed by a major megacorp and a large, vocal fanbase. If they're willing to ban fucking Blue Archive, it's over for moe anime games on Steam, period.

Honestly Japan is suffering for being too lazy to make their own distribution platform AND globally accepted Payment processor before Visa/Mastercard went crazy on them across the board.

For a company where you have to pay to even submit a game for review, it should be illegal to have such vague and ill-defined guidelines. Especially considering Valve's practical monopoly.

One thing that does seem to be related to individual reviewers is for certain titles to just get radio silence for two months from Valve, which is unprofessional behavior unrelated to the guidelines themselves and instead just reviewers looking to cause the developers/publishers headaches.

If Mary decides to ban some anime title because of ecchi content, that sucks but that is what her job is at Valve. If Mary decides to just hold onto a title for 2 months and not respond to anyone about it and leads to the publisher getting radio silence, then approve or reject it afterwards when everything else is queued for less than a week, that isn't related to actually reviewing the title and is just causing the publisher problems.

You couch it in more general terms. "Why should this one storefront have the power to decide what gets to exist on PC?" "Why is this storefront allowed to get away with having a monopoly?" "If they have this much power, it should be tied to a responsibility to use it justly and not discriminate against certain types of content, or that power should be taken away". Also point to all the console games they've banned, games that have been sold on Playstation and Nintendo platforms and passed regulatory bodies already as well as general stores with no complaints. They don't need to bat for loli in particular, they need to bat for a monopoly like Steam to not be able to use its power to shut out content they don't like. If they can't do this, then they are truly cattle who deserve the industry they get.

You probably couldn't get away with calling Steam a monopoly. They do nothing to harm competitors / do not use their position to block competition.
The only thing I can think of is that it needs to be illegal to reject games for moral reasons that have been rated by ratings boards, that at least saves ecchi games. Eroge would still have a bad time though.

Steam is what's called a "natural monopoly", and the barrier to competition is the network effect caused by their massive install base. It's the same thing keeping platforms like YouTube and Discord afloat despite massive enshittification. People in the past have already warned about so-called "benevolent" natural monopolies and the consequences of allowing them to fester.

>The only thing I can think of is that it needs to be illegal to reject games for moral reasons that have been rated by ratings boards, that at least saves ecchi games. Eroge would still have a bad time though.
I've advocated for this as well, but as you said, it's far from a perfect solution. I don't want eroge devs like AliceSoft to get thrown under the bus even if I prefer ecchi, and there's also the matter of what if the rating board gets compromised and starts enforcing retarded standards too like with Australia? So far the ESRB has been shockingly impartial, and PEGI and CERO are as well for the most part, but there's no guarantee they'll stay that way, and especially if they're given more power.

The barrier to entry is that your games have next to no chance of selling if they aren't on Steam because 90+% of the PC userbase is concentrated there.
>>714037009
You see MangaGamer up there disclosing their sales on their own website vs Steam. Games on their own website rarely sell more than 1000 copies yet Evenicle sold 15000 just because it was on Steam. That fits well within other publishers like Denpasoft saying 90+% of their sales come from Steam. Steam's dominance is such that it has rendered other storefronts nearly irrelevant. This is a problem that needs to be acknowledged. You can't just make something that Steam won't take because 99% of the time it'll flop just because it wasn't on Steam.
>>714043050
You'd rather Steam keep being able to screw over Japanese-style games forever? It's no different from what rules a public service would be bound by, and Steam being THE access point to the PC market should have some restrictions on what it can reject in the interest of protecting the free speech of developers. It's the same argument that's been advanced against platforms like Twitter in the wake of them obviously deplatforming certain forms of expression. Hell, I'd say Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft should be bound by such rules as well. It's not like anyone can just make a new console to compete with them like the 90s any more, the industry is too entrenched.

First off Valve Corporation has no intention to conduct any review based on ESRB or the IARC. Valve is illegally operating under the law in many countries that do require proof of registration.

Another thing is that Valve is under contract to give an answer because the legally binding agreement of the Developer fees are a legal obligation. Valve has to make a decision.

Which is why legislation needs to be passed to physically restrain them from ever doing this again. We need a final, definitive solution to this. Just hoping that one day they'll let up won't work, even if they do, who's to say they won't do it again the moment otakucore gives them the ick again? Unless there's actual rules breathing down their necks so they literally can't. We need a Stop Killing Games-style campaign but against arbitrary platform gatekeeping.

Not even just that, Valve has banned games just for having adult characters that "look underage", and even Nintendo is following suit. They won't just demand an age change, they'll demand actual changes to the designs. At that point it's clear they don't have any ground to stand on but pure hatred of moe aesthetics.
