general

I will now make a 5 hour analysis video going over my theory connecting the games

I'll watch it, and then leave a nerd emoji comment

5+ Hour Game analysis is how indie games get big these days

I can't imagine actually doing a 5 hour video

Everyone just watches them and buys the game for street cred, everyones gonna want toushin gent street cred after that

THE SICK AND TWISTED LORE OF TOUSHIN GENT.........

All it takes is one B tier youtuber to make an indie game pop off

image of gent with his non existant eyes blacked out

The secret lore of Toushin Gent and how it involves driving a poor content creator to suicide

I actually have seen this happen to numerous games I played

as long as they have like an audience that will just go out and buy the shit they play

Me and Pirate played Miside demo not knowing what it was before the youtubers got to it, interesting experience

this game had like 10 reviews before this video

its a shitpost game

I want a ManlyBadAssHero tier person to play.

This channel seems like something I would not watch

yeah i dont recommend it or anything I just think its funny

Send it to Sseth to play

Sseth would not like toushin gent, it has no rape

or furry porn

We do not have enough actual titillation or autism management mechanics

there was a joke that ppl would find out about black souls through sseth or someone like that eventually, unfortunately for the fans it was much worse

But this game is by autistic people for autistic people, and it's hitting the demographics correctly so far

Fact check: mixture of true and false

they kind of deserve what happened to them I think

Same as the above

what happened to them?

like

tiktok teenagers and limbus company fans found that game

oh

and only like it for the aesthetics and shit

oh that's sad, I'm not sure they deserve that

which is exactly the funniest outcome

I do think Black Souls 2 is kind of cool

oh that explains why one of my friends started sending me black souls memes

but oh well

I just think the gameplay is awful

the lore is somewhat interesting

Isn't that a porn game

or something

i cant really pinpoint exactly what happened but there was like a bunch of tweets that went viral and I guess people just looked into it

I saw it blowing up on twitter

yeah its porn

okay, thought so

it's a max core eroge pika

that sounds right

"max-core" from what little I know of that person sounds scary

She is literally non dangerous

wouldn't hurt a fly

I'll trust you

its more of a couldnt than a wouldnt

guys why is the game banned in germany

my german friend is heart broken he wont get to experience it 😔

When you make a steam game, Valve wants you to mark various potentially controversial or rating changing content; there was one for prejudice against groups of people, which we flagged as yes due to how certain people in bendy town refer to Gent. Germany bans all games like that due to wide reaching Anti-Semitism laws

holy

that's a very detailed answer bro thank you

Yeah, it's funny. I don't think this game has any outright Anti-Semitism, but Germany wants none, so Steam takes the easy route and over filters.

Don't get me wrong though, I don't want to slander Gent's name, he is indeed anti-Semitic

Word

If you can entertain me a little more though, how much of the game gets sent to Valve/Steam to actually be reviewed? There was already a couple things that annoying said within the first hour of the game that would have had me clutching my pearls if I was a couple notches more sensitive

how much of that stuff is actually allowed before you get banned (idk what the better word here is, sent for re-review? barred from sending it in?), was that something you guys thought about deliberately

We have no idea, or at least I don't. I'll answer this personally, and not as a Dev for this part, but I think steam takes a laissez-faire approach unless it touches on a big societal no no, (outright racism seems fine, but encouraging or inciting for genocide would be a no likely) or stuff involving minors or lack of consent. I don't think this game reaches any of that level, but we did at least consider what the public would think for some material, but usually decided to go with what we thought Gent would do. Steam has historically struck down on things like Rance, also one big Japanese publisher had a game I can't remember but it got removed involving an underaged character.

there has been a big controversy over those games for a while yeah

Also they check for things like a game just being malware

which I think is the most common reason a game gets removed

there's a ton of money laundering on steam, when it comes to like games that get removed

theres like tons of russian, chinese, etc games that get uploaded for like $200

get traded around on key sites

I am not super familiar with the modern application, but it was super gameable back in 2015

I got a lot of free crap games for doing that kind of stuff back then for card farming

I'm like a more evil version of that one evil cool person you're thinking of

it's a strange web, I was part of a steam curator group that would like send out emails to devs and stuff to get free games a long time ago

don't say it, it'll ruin the surprise.

heh yeah. that one

okay okay, I won't

my lips are sealed

Factory sealed?
