DisDisDis posted:gimme a rating out of 10 uhhhh a.... six or a seven, from the half hour I've played so far? It's surprisingly good for an indie visual novel, with fun dialogue and art that's good despite being extremely horny anime. There's no onii-samas, nothing actually disgusting - instead so far it's a prostitute flirting with a pirate captain, getting handed her hat (as the pirate flees from the guards) and the lady winding up as the captain of this ship. She's making a deal with the creditor so that she can actually have the ship as long as she gets it profitable/running again. The crew is full of cute anime animal people, and like. For what it is it isn't rude and I'm enjoying it.*** ***it is a game that will zoom up on the bulge in the dragon lady's pants to show off the, ahem, bulge Mark down to a four or five if you hate horny gay anime animal people, mark up if you're into that. There is no voice acting (thank goodness) and all the UI features are here that I'd expect in a visual novel.

Latest news from some of the devs involved is that Steam has issued retractions on their warning notices for a number of the affected games for now and will be letting them stay up while they re-review the content. Looks like either this is a case of "algorithms strike again" and this all happened in response to a mass campaign of reports without proper oversight, or Valve decided that they acted hastily and are backpedalling.

I'm pretty sure that's not right. In fact it looks like I can click on the free to play genre and between the mmos and such there's cheesy little student project type things that don't have dlc or anything attached to them.

You can release a game completely for free with no in-game transactions, but it means there are certain features like Steam cards that you don't have full access to. I remember the Princess Remedy dev talked about it at one point.

How many more times is Valve going to introduce a new policy/feature/storefront bullshit and have to backpedal within a year (or a day in most cases) before they realize they really needs (or needs a better) community team/vetting process/PR/whatever the gently caress that Valve inexplicably does not have.

They definitely know already. It's more that they're not going to spend money to fix it.

So far it's looking less like a new policy and more like the pressure group figured out a way to game or spam the complaint system.

Palpek posted:Most sex scenes in games are bad because they're obviously fan service and not really necessary to develop the plot or character relations. Even if they were though they're always directed like cheap erotic movies with horrific acting, they show too much and go on for too long so any merit a scene like that could have is thrown out the window because of embarassing execution. Ohhhhhh that explains the thread title for the old Witcher thread.

i mean, VNs are pretty much the entry point to game dev for writers who can't program or draw, so it's not really a shock that you get some good writers in the mix Gen Urobuchi and Ryukishi07 write pretty good horror, too, and while Kinoko Nasu's writing is janky as hell in a lot of ways the dude writes action scenes like nobody else e: fair warning that Urobuchi and RK07 are on basically opposite ends of the horror spectrum with their VN work, though- the only straight-up horror VN Urobuchi has done is really, really loving nasty and extremely not for the weak-stomached on like 20 different levels, whereas RK07... uh... just read Umineko it's basically impossible to explain coherently (basically it's like anime House of Leaves with a lot of surrealist meta poo poo)

If Valve actually gave the slightest fraction of a poo poo, they could solve the problem by simply requiring a $1000 deposit to have a game listed on Steam. One the title has reached $5000 in sales, the author gets the deposit back on top of their first royalty check. This would eliminate 95% of the lovely fetish fulfillment games and 100% of the lovely asset-flip cheevo farms.

quote:April 14, 2009 - At this year's Game Developers Conference a talk called Independent Game Sales revealed that Nintendo has a minimum download threshold for WiiWare games that must be met before the developer is paid. The speaker, Gamasutra publisher and Independent Game Festival chairman Simon Carless, said this number is somewhere in the mid-quadruple digits for America and low quadruples for other territories. Unless a game passes over this number of downloads, the developer doesn't get paid at all.

Fun fact about agreeing to be distributed on a privately owned platform: You agree to that platform's terms. It's just ironic that, currently, that platform doesn't even know its own terms.

If it's part of your publishing/distribution contract? Absolutely. All sorts of businesses which act as a marketplace (e.g. Etsy) have time or value based holds built into the contract that lets you use their service. In a nutshell, in US contract law, so long as both parties are competent, both parties receive consideration, and no laws are broken in the execution of the contract, pretty much anything is okay.

This would eliminate 95% of the lovely fetish fulfillment games and 100% of the lovely asset-flip cheevo farms. They definitely shouldn't be withholding money until X sales, but a simple system of "give us a $1000 deposit, you get it all back when you sell that much" seems like a no-brainer and about 100x better than the $100 application fee they have now In fact that was indeed one of the options they asked devs about when nixing Greenlight - it's the one I wanted! - but too many people said it'd be an undue financial burden It's a tough nut to crack. I don't want to defend anything Valve does as they're genuinely a bad company these days, but this an ubiquitous problem present in every industry. lower barriers to entry are a doubled-edged sword
