And tbh they already have the money via subscription. So tbh this wont lhase them, just like when they butchered an easy win of a live action death note the same way.

Also didn't Paradox ban white characters from their Latest Battletech commander game?

This better be a closing down sale

I'd be willing to bet the more overtly political Netflix becomes, the more their subscriber numbers will suffer.

That's a Harebrained Schemes game, and they've always been SJW'ish, so I wouldn't blame that on Paradox.

Same goes for Whitewolf, and Vampire the Masquerade

From a quick skim read (Just opened steam) They say they wont ban things from the store, but allow you to essentially "Block" yourself from viewing a publisher's games you don't like?

Yes, but you've been able to do similar stuff for a while

They've made changes to how search results are displayed, depending on what kind of filters you have set up

`"Q: What do you mean, in practice, when you say you won't ship games that are "outright trolling?" That seems vague.

A: It is vague and we'll tell you why. You're a denizen of the internet so you know that trolls come in all forms. On Steam, some are simply trying to rile people up with something we call "a game shaped object" (ie: a crudely made piece of software that technically and just barely passes our bar as a functioning video game but isn't what 99.9% of folks would say is "good")..."`

Hmm 🤔

I understand what they mean, but this opens up possibilities for censorship

Yeah, it does

But I'm pretty sure Valve is a conservative money driven buisness

isnt it?

they've been less censorious than all the other similar platforms

so I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, but I'm sure people will be keeping an eye on them still

indeed

After the last few years, I'd be quite happy for "evil greedy corporations hellbent on taking my money" to simply focus on *being* "evil greedy corporations hellbent on taking my money"

much easier to deal with those

don't buy their shit

@MountainMan I'm assuming you don't have Conclave right?

If I find something morally repugnant, then I won't buy it

If enough people find something morally repugnant, then *they* won't buy it

If a company isn't making enough money off of something, then they won't sell it

Maybe some weird tiny niche market or some shit, but larger companies won't even want to be associated with... whatever 'it' is

@Deleted User No I do not.

Sadly.

I need the favor system, dont I?

nah, just increase their opinion of you @MountainMan

give gifts, increase diplo

Ahh okay.

All of them hate my current leader

Or well

If I give gifts they'll have a opinion around 50-60 usually

are you a *t y r a n t* ?

jesus fuck

...I do like my invasions.

I took over the british isles, and then invaded france.

@MountainMan gib screenshot of your vassal with the lowest opinion

oof its -100
