Valve approves first full-on pornographic game for sale on Steam

"Negligee: Love Stories" is the game.

Here's some censored images from their Kickstarter campaign



As you can see, the game features full on penetration and hardcore sex. Guess it opens up the floodgates.

While people who work on adult projects deserve compensation for their work, I'm not sure I agree with Valve allowing this kind of full on content on their storefront. Just feels... Odd to have the same platform that serves up stuff like Putt-Putt! edutainment titles and Sonic the Hedgehog share shelf space with full on porn.

Kind of reminiscent of VHS rental stores with the 18+ bead "door" areas.

Mod edit:

 

I expected that type of art style. Fucking gross

 

Good. Let people decide what they want.

There is zero reason to keep games with sexual content off Steam, just like there is zero reason to keep porn off the shelves of a video store.

 

Wtf, I thought Steam was on a censoring rampage just some time ago, now they straight up approve adult games?

 

I trust the mods to do the right thing and add them to the list of banned games.

 

Hopefully this is hidden in some store front inside of the storefront if that makes sense. I have no issue with such games but I really wouldn’t want to see this on the same store page as stuff like monster hunter, dota, Cs and what not.

 

Uhhhh....... sure.

So is this made by a non Japanese dev? Pretty surreal to see hentai made outside Japan.

 

You'll need to specifically approve these kinds of games yourself from your account settings before you'll ever even see them.

I have no problems with this. If people want to play them okay, if people don't they won't see it.

 

Apple said no to their Steam iOS app

 

Are the characters in the game at least 18+?

 

They've introduced the new settings where you need to opt in to see 18+ content so it was only a matter of time.

 

They are dragons.

 

Nope, they had an about face since then. They waved those "bans" off pretty immediately followed by a statement.

 

Tired of people being horny on Twitter main, now I gotta watch for people being horny on Steam main.

 

When they did, people reacted. A LOT of them. They also got a lot of (very justified) negative press.

But it was fine for them to sell stuff like Hatred or whatever other horrifically violent games that are already out there?

 

Would it be possible for other games that have had uncensored patches to release those patches through Steam now with these changes?

 

Not anymore, the market decides.

to me they don't look 18+ but i'd really hope so because if not then Valve is about to enter a shitstorm. They would be selling and distributing CP.

 

Oh look it's anime, what a a surprise.

 

I approve of this precedent (even if the game itself seems fairly...eh)

 

the link in the tweet says "site error"

 

My first thoughts. They don't look 18, and the creator knows they don't look 18 (based solely on the image in the OP).

 

Because you can't access the store listing without being logged in.

 

Hooray for consumer choice.

Hooray for not censoring content for consenting adults.

Hooray for anime tiddies.

 

Please, please, PLEASE don't let this be Indonesia's government excuse to block Steam...

 

Finally!

Also OP AO store pages are disabled by default you need to go out of your way to enable it.

 

Nice

 

ah TIL

thanks!

 

they certainly don't but they might be 18+ according to whatever the game says but it is still very much questionable. "they don't look 18+ but trust us...they are!!!"

 

This is how it should have always been. There’s options if you want to see games like that. Also, gory games too. You choose what your storefront looks like.

Mangagamer has been selling this stuff for years.

 

Seriously, this is the mildest crap in comparison to Manhunt or other super violent creepy games.

 

no

 

Hey now, I can see one of them there that looks legal

Maybe

 

Adult Only Sexual Content is disabled automatically in Steam, if you want these games to appear in your store you will need to enable this content in your preferences. So I don't see a problem to be honest. (as long as the content is legal that is, these girls are looking a bit too young)

 

This is great.

 

Just put everything under the correct tags and I don't see the issue.

 

If Steam wants to allow sex games then fine but I expect atleast they dont allow loli shit.

 

Extreme violence is ok and promoted in games all the time. I don't see a problem.

 

Not all that surreal. There's a massive amount of western porn artists out there.

 

If this was a Japanese visual novel the publisher has to put a warning stating the characters are of legal age, like so, even if the setting is High school.

 

You need to be logged in and check that you want to see adult content to see this.

 

I think this is great. You obviously wouldn't want that on the front page but I doubt steam would let that happen.

 

That quality censorship.

 

Maybe

 

No worries, if it is as every hentai game they are a thousand-year-old dragons in the body of 12-year old. Because Japan.

 

That's a hard to handle topic..

What should be allowed and what no? That's really hard to say...
