The more taboo a topic, the more it gets people agitated, sometimes this is channeled sexually.
Doing the right thing for the wring reason if you ask me. I don't think it was ever a good idea to sell incest games in the first place, but banning them because they make payment processors uncomfortable ? Fuck that.
I don't want payment processors to be the arbiters of what we are allowed to play !
The reason might be a slippery slope or whatever, but there's mountains of disgusting visual novel incest fantasy shit, so much that I had to filter out all sexual content from Steam even though I might enjoy occasional Sex With the Devil or some Genital Jousting.
I prefer to do my genital jousting IRL, and not video game format. I just go up to random dudes at the urinal and challenge them.
It's easy to say that Valve should make a stand, but wouldn't be able to sell games anymore.
Payment processors and financial institutions sure do seem to hold disproportionate amounts of power.
While this doesn’t directly affect me, I really hate that a payment processor I don’t even use can dictate what is and is not acceptable speech.
This doesn't directly affect me, either, but does anyone know if it applies to all of the Interactive Sex - Futanari Incest DLC, too!? For Episodes 1-4!? Like, if any of my friends have large amounts of FutaCoinz from years of Season Passes, I wonder if they'll still be able to spend them...?
I don't know if I want to try to find out if that is satire or actual things...
I can't imagine buying a porn game on Steam. And even if I did, incest holds no interest to me.
Even so, I absolutely fucking hate this crap. Payment processors are killing off content despite the producers and consumers of the content being completely fine with it. This should be a Net Neutrality issue. But I'm not seeing anywhere near the same outrage over it that there was over ISPs doing the exact same thing.
I remember someone had a reply on something that touched on incest porn and they where like. I see it all the time but when you put in blond big boobed blowjob and the title is mom son its like who cares or such. So much porn seems to just get relabeled when it comes to incest porn. This is now a brother and sister or mom/son or father/daughter. It is wierd how that seemed to just blow up in popularity. I mean I think its been that way for a few years but I swear I did not see so much like pre covid.
My theory is that it's because people who are into it must be really into it, but people who aren't into it are very good at ignoring the fact that it's titled like that or that there might be one or two throwaway lines implying it (especially when it's "step"). So there's an incentive for uploaders to title things like that and for creators to add a little nod in the video towards it (without adding too much incest roleplay) because it draws in a large audience and actively turns away very few.
Well if you are having to watch on mute anyway, not like you even know the plot...
Of course you miss out on the narrative masterpiece of things like lemon stealing whores ..

Dare I ask for context?

Why do they even get to know which games people buy? It should just show them "Steam purchase" and nothing else.
Because many "players" are refunding after a fap, which is logged and reviewed. Also, suspicious or new transactions are often flagged and reviewed. So a lot of such side content is being pushed in front of the banks and payment processors by horny clients who unwittingly expose their kinks.
If a large number of refunds came from a single source it seems like Steam would be the one addressing the issue, not payment processors.

Wonder where they stand on The Witcher I?
Agreed, this shit sucks. The credit card companies hold far too much power over what is considered viable commerce.

Any game featuring most kinds of animal, including people, is evidence that sex occurred. We should ban those too.
If a game exists, a person made it and that person exists because someone had sex. It's disgusting how people pay to play that sort of filth.
What goal do the payment processors have for doing things like this, is it just that they like knowing that they have the ability to control what you are and aren't allowed to enjoy? I ask this because normally, when services change their policies, it's done to improve profits. But from what I can tell, the payment processors can only lose money because they are eliminating potential revenue sources.
I will admit that I have no interest in any of the games that were removed, I've never even heard of them before today, but I don't agree with payment processors having the ability to sensor content over some schizo bullshit.
Porn-related transactions have a higher than average rate of chargebacks. Maybe post-nut clarity motivates people to say "wait hold on I shouldn't have spent that money, I must've been hacked." Or maybe it's people saving face when confronted with a transaction log from their spouse or other family members. Or maybe it's just the type of transaction that actual card fraudsters gravitate towards, so that there really is a higher percentage of unauthorized transactions.
Gambling-related merchants also have a similar problem with payment processors. For many of them, it's just straightforward business concerns, not any kind of ethical issue in itself.
