oh that explains why one of my friends started sending me black souls memes
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
Garbage general
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
Garbage general
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.
Sean general
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
Sean general
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
Garbage general
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.

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

but in this whole thing, you get familiar with a lot of weird shit
Sean general
there are some real curators I think that would actually really fuck with your game but really idk how much that whole system is even worth
Sean general
it was very funny to imagine, when me and my group were younger, that we were wasting some old guys time at his actual job by trolling him with lowballs for trades for like basically stolen keys
Garbage general
I am certain that most publishers now on steam just by the developer enough copies for all the steam algorithm checkmarks, and then puts the dev in a situation where the game will have to make X back before the devs will be paid
Sean general
Replying to Garbage #garbageatgaming
It's actually pretty important to an extent but steam key copies are nuked algorithmically for reviews
yeah this is kinda fucked up but it has to be this way otherwise you can just give a billion keys to guys in a giveaway and ask them to leave a positive review or whatever
Sean general
Actually that's a lie, I quit the steam curator thing because I felt bad about how we would lie to like the most obviously shitty games that we'd give them a chance
