This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

I haven't played a porn game since I was a teen in highschool. 20-odd years ago. Now I own a whole mess of the things.

Being a DIK is definitely worth playing.

Watching the Game Grumps do House Party is also pretty damn funny but playing the actual game is...less.

Except for that one scene 💦

So, there's this game still on Steam called Slaves of Rome that is the definition of non-consentual NSFW games, and it's also an open-world action RPG, so the format is very accessible and also not badly done for an indie. So, it has me very confused why it was spared.

Anything that praises the holy Roman empire gets an automatic pass.

Voltaire just got banned from Steam.

The vegan vampire? I can still see and buy it.

... How is that the name of an actual game?

Just in case, no, that was a joke about Voltaire, the philosopher.

The phrase "Holy Roman Empire" is most commonly used for the German empire that went from Charlemagne to 1800-ish (long after the fall of the "other" Roman Empire). Voltaire criticized the HRE of his time calling it "neither holy, nor Roman or an empire".

This quote is kind of a meme among Crusader Kings players for example because HRE is kind of a pain in these games.

In the wide world of indies, no name is too weird to use.

I did think of Voltaire the person, but I wasn't aware of the Crusader Kings connection.

Let's not speak of it before it gets swept up

[–] NuXCOM_90Percent@lemmy.zip 4 points 17 hours ago

Eh... I am not gonna protect games fundamentally about raping people. And would ask that you maybe not associate that with smut and art games.

Good trash or bad trash?
