Fucking gone. Get fucked.
Private reports for months and months? Fuck all results.
A bit of public agitation kicks off and itchio freaked the fuck out and blasted it instantly.
EDIT: Celebration might be premature, it’s been taken down pending investigation of whether it breaks their ToS or not. It could reappear, hopefully fucking not though. Gonna publicly agitate even more if it does, this shit works.
Before seeing the context elsewhere in the thread, I thought we were talking “Void Rains Upon Her Heart” levels of pedo, but holy shit this is so far beyond that. I don’t really follow anime-ish ero games because nothing about it would appeal to me, but my impression from what Steam occassionally tosses up as punishment for me ever playing an anime-ish game of any kind (mostly fighting games), it’s my inclination to guess that it’s mainly the antisemitism that is causing this to come “under review”. Graphic SV and pedophilia seem to be alarmingly tolerated on these platforms, but blatant Nazi shit sometimes isn’t.
Yeah this is leaps and bounds ahead of anything else. It’s a combination of torture porn and child porn. The fascists have some sort of belief that pushing the boundaries of sexual content helps to make society “more dege-removed-nerate” and they see it as having accelerationist benefits to do it.
I suspect part of it is about driving people outside the boundaries of acceptability in society, where they can then become radicalised by fascists on the fringes. It increases their numbers. Not only that but it also encourages extreme violent behaviours, I can’t shake the feeling that people into sexually abusive violence are more likely to commit real violence, there’s probably research on that somewhere.
I get the impression of the game reflecting them being fucked up edgelords along with the actual fash propaganda like the Happy Merchant, but that the sadistic porn elements don’t serve an ideological purpose beyond perhaps getting the game banned so they can make controversy around it based on things like the flag (as they ended up actually doing). Maybe not, I don’t know. If they had an ideological reason to want to promote sexual violence, etc, there are other ways of doing it (see any anime ero game’s representation of consent) that I think would be more effective in bending some weeb’s attitude and encouraging wild misogyny. I don’t really know though, just my opinion.
