games

You probably know this, but just in case you don't, Toushin Gent is unavailable in my region (Germany). I assume the age rating thing is a pain in the ass & not worth bothering with.

That's sad, I thought we got it approved in Germany for a while

I think Germany, Brazil, and South Korea were the hardest

lots of extra requirements

What are you using to try and watch it?

Watch?

its a steam game

yep, just Germany now

we can sell in Russia but not 🇩🇪

I used a VPN to "watch" the steam page

Well I feel stupid, remember kids do not have a shit load of conversations then click on the wrong one.

dw, we're watching you Zombie

using Discord

so now your original statement works

why is it restricted in Germany?

on steam you take a survey for age rating and similar things and when me and rusp did it some of the answers got it restricted there. in hindsight we were a bit conservative with the answers but I don't think it's a huge deal

AFAIK, Germany has its own age rating system, USK, which is more restrictive than in most other places, and, more significantly, it's just an annoying bureaucratic step that many tiny indie teams or solo devs decide not to bother with (if they even know about it)

Germany having an annoying bureaucratic step that no one else does? Noo, never...

also, it used to be the case that steam's age rating was basically accepted and USK wasn't such an issue, but then something changed with USK and Steam, so a bunch of older games that would have 0 problem passing the controls got delisted in Germany just because the publishers didn't update the age rating, because they didn't know or didn't care (probably can't expect many sales anyway for an old game in 1 specific region) or because the publishers didn't even exist anymore. it's a mess

example of unavailable games just on my wishlist that were available when I wishlisted them

classic lol

I unfortunately think its going to be more common

as more an more countries begin this whole age verification push and try to regulate foreign media/websites more

Canada/Mexico are probably fairly insulated from it

but Pretty much all of Europe and Asia are starting to move in the wrong direction

oh yeah, I guess I should feel lucky I don't live in the UK with the imgur stuff

Canada I will just be required to play 40% Canadian made games

Japan is weird, they have restrictive copyright laws, that make them want to enforce their protections globally, even if overall they're lax on restricting actual content

They should make that real for any digital game; it makes you play a certain amount of Canadian game products before you can access your library again

Pika, we'd open a Canada branch of PhijkchuGames, publish something there, and they you could just idle it to farm hours

Me, playing 1 run of Balatro a day to unlock my account

Spooky, I am listed in the credits of every game they've released so far, I think that qualifies as Canadian made

if you mary each dev, you can get 50% of them Canadian citizenship

pick your 50%

umbreon, you, then you can marry maxand give her your can citizenship

and pirate I guess if I have to

Are you getting divorced after each one, or are you doing an rpg party style thing

Polygamy is sadly not legal in Canada

so it'll have to be divorce

I will insist I get half the streamer house in the divorce though spooky

if you mary xBrox first, can you use her native exemption

and then harem it up

polygamy mentioned

^

or that, Proygon ---> harem

Spooky, I could already get native exemption in theory

my dad would have to go get it though since I am only a 16th, and you need to be an 8th

I would possibly marry porygon, I guess

we could play TTT and stronghold crusaders I suppose
