he's right about steam's claim to "always check games work before they go up for sale on steam" is a blatant lie
For a self absorbed unfunny cuckold he always managed to bring up good points and informed statements when it comes to the videogame industry.
This fat fuck needs to get a heart attack and die already.
>more bitching about low quality games on steam
what arbitrary set of rules should be used to determine whether a game is worthy of being on steam or not?
the problem with Jim isn't that he isn't right, it's that he's alternates platitudes about obvious shit everyone agrees upon, with the ACTUAL SJW opinions he genuinely wants to push, in a game of equilibrium and juggling.
So you get people that are like "huh he's actually making sense" like this guy, and that's how he manages to walk the rope.
I'm not upset at him or anything, i just find him boring.
He's been doing this shit for so many years now, he spreads SJW dust here and there, then sucks some alt-right heated gamer moment dick to keep them from murdering him, then he goes back and forth.
You can only do the same shit over and over up to a certain point before it becomes completely formulaic and boring.
His career is so set in stone in methodology he might as well be punching his card in every day like a factory assembler.
Jim flirted with socialist and even communist ideas in the past couple of years. He went full CCP with that video. Hope the Chinese money was worth it, James.
>i'm le edgy nazi... but not really i love consumers bro xD
Cringe
why are you shilling for this fat fucking cuck?
>Epic shills aren't rea-
Just because he opposes Steam? Yikes
>Wooooow I can't believe people are discussing a popular new video!
How can someone so disgusting, fat, and edgy have a such a following? I'm assuming most of his audience must be as disgusting as him.
No, because he's fat and ugly. And a literal cuck.
imagine defending a store like epic that bribed ubi to remove the division 2 from ALL stores so you cann't even buy a uplay key from anywhere else because people were buying uplay keys instead of going to epic
He's entry level pro-consumerist, when it doesn't hurt his SJW feelings. Here he went full Epic Store shill.
>not the first post from this IP
Kill yourself OPiss
>Steam panders to porn addicts and puts lewd shovelware up with the actual games
>Inevitably drifts towards really fucked up incel fantasy shit about humiliating and abusing women that anyone of reason can see shouldn't be on the same storefront as Skyrim
>Porn addicts turn on them in half a second
Why would you pander to Yea Forums in any way in this matter. Just go back in time and stop Steam from ever flirting with this shit. Crisis averted
That sounds like your problem
his rules, of course.
This
>Gay games good
>Straight games bad
its being removed from all other stores after the 15th
Literal cuckold
Literal communist
Not videogames
>caring about the opinion of a LITERAL KEK.

No thanks.
That's a picture of the Epic Store
>"I'm against censorship unless it's censoring something I don't like"
>Gog and DIscord
>Making waves
What?
gog.com
Which is a weird thing to say considering GoG is fucking dead
If he wasnt such a sanctimonious asshole he might have been worth listening to. Even if he makes a point now and then it just oozes his snark and holier than thou attitude.
Tianamin square massacre 1989,Human Rights,Freedom of Speech,Winnie the Pooh.
One would think that a company that was making waves would be doing well though. I never heard of any of these stores doing well overall. They exsist but i cant belive they bring in any where near the money that Steam does. Discord i assume just sells off all the data they collect making more on that than there store would in 10 years.
yeah I'm feeling so too
Can someone remind me, didn't he cheer when Steam abandoned Greenlight and opened the floodgates way back when?
Are you daft? He went apeshit.
You gotta use Chinese characters user. 天安门广场. There now OP will be executed. Too bad there's 2 billion chinks in the world.
half the video is him crying about racist games on steam and saying steam is evil for not deleting them, the other half is him claiming censorship is good (of specifically and only the things he doesn't like) and you are bad and dumb if you disagree.
why would you waste my time with this?
Did you even watch the full video?
Cringe but kinda redpilled
Nope. He has always wanted heavy curation.
Are you okay with racist games on Steam?
Yes, he wants Steam curators to be literal judges and juries. (Selected ones, SJW ones)
Yeah
>store should be curated for unplayable shit
>games I don't like should be banned
>if it's bad marketing it should be banned
He can't decide which one of these arguments he's gonna use so he switches sentence to sentence from one to another. As I see it he's just triggered about games he doesn't like so he presents them as a problem in the same package as non functioning shit. And then to seem impartial for anyone who caught that he backs off and says it's all actually about optics.
Theoretically there's a good opinion in that vid somewhere, but what it amounts to is Jimmyboi being a lying piece of shit pushing his agenda.
South park the stick of truth is honestly one of the best games I have ever played. Great story, gameplay and so much nostalgia if you watched the show as a kid. I recommend it to everyone.
>Not understanding satire
>listening to fat people
lmfao if you get your opinions from a literal fat british cuck that lives in mississippi you should consider suicide
By this I mean, South Park is satire, not racist
>racism is ok when it's in satire
Nobody would know about half of those fucking garbage games if Jim, Polygon, Resetera, etc. didn't highlight them constantly. Rape Day was "made" (I have doubts it was ever a real game to begin with) solely to get a rise out of people, and guess what? It worked.
Yes?
Fuck this lard tho
Lard lad
you never watched the chappelle show?
Lots of kids ITT upset that Jim offended daddy Steam. I don't think the Epic Store is any more exciting than Steam, they're both crap - but Jim doesn't say in the video "Epic store is better than Steam, everyone should use that", he simply points out that he isn't surprised that devs are enticed to use it, and he wishes it well, and hopes Steam gets off their arse and cleans up their mess once they see the competition growing. The Epic store has been live for all of 4 months, and people here are complaining that it hasn't got every feature that the Steam store has... haha - are you goddamn kidding? The Steam store has been live for 14 years, and the only changes they've made in the last 7 years have been to remove the best sales (80%-95% off major and AAA titles), create 'Early Access' aka pay before the game is finished ultra-pre-order, and open the floodgates to asset flips and objectively shitty games - all so they can make more money. They have added nothing positive for the consumer in that time - yet when someone like Jim points out that he hopes competitors do well to clean up this shitty stale service, the Defenders of Gaben come crawling out?
They're allowing developers to opt out of reviews. How the fuck is that pro consumer, Epic shill? How is it anti consumer to have more products? Sure, they're shitty products. and you can tell that they are, easily, so don't fuckin buy them? How is it pro consumer to bribe publishers to remove games from other platforms so that they're Epic exclusives?
Stop shilling your videos you fat cuck.
If it can actually start up?
This - based only finna blacks can use racial humor
this guy is an incel for sure.
>The Epic store has been live for all of 4 months, and people here are complaining that it hasn't got every feature that the Steam store has... haha - are you goddamn kidding?
That makes it worse, just because it took Steam 14 years to add certain features does not mean its should take Epic the same time to add a fucking review system or forums.
>haha
I wonder what it feels like for epic to put their penises in your ass haha
Steam is pretty shit.
Banning "school setting" and "conspiracy" stuff aka Loli and Facts.
True, there isn't really a good alternative but there doesn't need to be. I can back stuff up on disc just fine.
Is it really that hard to just ignore the garbage that pops up on steam? Like seriously how do you honestly find this shit on the store in the first place?
>Is it really that hard to just ignore the garbage that pops up on steam
That's like saying ignore the garbage EA games.
nice pasta, mind if I save it
How does the song go again?
BORN FAT

PROFESSIONAL VICTIM AND I KNOOOOOOW THAT YOU'LL GIVE ME ATTENTION
Of course I'm okay with racist games, you fucking jew.
The problem is, he thinks Steam should be MORE banhappy, not less. Fuck him.
But I already do.
...
Okay I do go into their threads to smear, demean and besmirch their games, so you're right. But I only give them attention to drive away sales and frustrated their advertising bots.
>Pro consumer
>Contrarian
>Looks like the average Yea Forums user
Why do Yea Forums hates Sterling? He's Yea Forums in a nutshell
>pro consumer
>The problem is, he thinks Steam should be MORE banhappy, not less.
Why shouldn't it be? They deleted Rape Day and several porn/hentai games already - why not just keep doing it?
die faggot
Maybe he just has wildly different views on various political issues.
oh no, how will Steam ever recover from this fat commie fuck.
>criticizes the lack of curation on Steam
>calls out publishers for anti-consumer practices
>hates loot-boxes
>exposes asset flippers
>opposes always online DRM and games as a service bullshit
How is he not pro consumer?
Yes I'm black btw
Fuck off ching chong
because he "borrows" his opinion pieces from reddit, forum etc. posts i.e. he steals others people work
he is a populist and filters everything to be the voice of reason
anyone who is pro-censorship is not pro-consumer
Reminder Steam will literally sell ANYTHING (unless it's offensive then it gets deleted)
Yeah, but consider the following.
genuinely curious, what's the "SJW" shit he wants to push that's so terrible? Is it because he thinks trannies are people? Like, the most controversial SJW shit I heard him say way "Don't send people death threats, you fucks" which, I gotta be honest here, I kinda agree with.
I also want to know, what alt right gamer thing he sucked off? Apparently multiple ones for you to see a pattern?

but god forbid someone make a rape game
I followed (indirectly) his career since the very first day. He made probably THE biggest 180° in terms of attitude and his opinions/worldviews. He's still a total bellend and he is always there where the money is.
Back in the day everybody, and I mean EVERYBODY made fun of him and hated his guts, even neogaf. He was also a regular guest on gamersareembarrassing and was referred to as "Trenchbloat".
gamersareembarrassing.wordpress.com
gamersareembarrassing.tumblr.com
archive.li
All of Jim's videos have so much naivete and misinformation in it, it's not funny. Doesn't help that he's a huge populist.
Jim actually admitted in some neogaf thread that he gets his ideas and topics from "hardcore gamer" forums.
The thing is, he also copies the answers. He basically steals his content and forms his opinions based on other people's work. (i.e. long-winded written opinions by other forum users) Most of the time he just repeats the most sensible answers ad nauseam and claims to be the voice of reason. It's basically a copy-paste job.
neogaf.com
I mean credit to him, he was one of the first who exploited that back in the days i.e. the new formula to make successful videogame related videos on youtube. A video of someone complaining about companies making money. At some point he'll start talking about "the industry" because everyone who owns a console/PC seems to know what's right for "the industry".
He isn't even pro-censorship, you mongrel.
Quite the opposite actually.
He doesn't mind people making and selling shitty games on their own websites.
He just doesn't want it to shit up the Steam storefront and direct the attention of lawmakers towards it.
Oh neat, a non retarded roulette that isn't full of numbers you can't actually get on Yea Forums
"curating" steam means deplatforming games/developers he doesn't like
Lucky guy.
>He isn't even pro-censorship, you mongrel.
>He just doesn't want it to shit up the Steam storefront
The furries have fur sirs on the inside so their beastiality porn is ok.
You want to get them? find countries where beastiality porn is illegal like Australia.
If its on the store for those countries you got them.
It's not shill its literally epic.
Remember when we got spammed with the SAME paragon thread weekly?
Even all the "replies" in those threads looked similar.
>not having it on your store is censorship
people need to know what censorship means.
1 at a time user.
Rolling.
>TRIPLE EYYYYYYYYYYY GAMES
>LOOT BOXES AND MICROTRANSACTIONS
>STEAM CURATION
I used to like Jim a few years ago, but he quickly just dissolved down to just repeating these same three topics over and over again. I kinda miss the Digital Homicide era where he was just shit talking asset flips.
Noice.
>Wanting a game remove because you don't like it's content is not pro-censorship
>I was merely pretending!
Not him, but Jim pushed the "SJWs won't take your games away" nonsense and consistently supports censorship. I even remember him defending the censorship of pic related and saying something like this would never happen to Batman.
rollin
Will look up who I get on sankaku
That faggot blocked me on twitter after I told him to stop sucking Antifa cock when he went on a massive SJW addled tirade on how everyone he disagrees with politically were "Nazis".
Fuck the British and their subhuman progeny
The first two don't matter you stupid nigger
Having traits someone doesn't like doesn't mean it cant be here. If that was true your faggot ass reddit spacing would be bannable
He wants "problematic" games gone. That's his true intention. No one fucking cares about the barely working garbage games that he digs up from page 1032 of the steam store. They're literally not a problem. I've never seen a single one of those games on steam.
>pro exclusives
>pro censorship
Oh yeah but he calls out people who try and sell that shitty unity template on steam, which nobody would play or give a fuck about without him. And Jim Sterling is the only one who dislikes loot boxes, it's not like all of gaming is constantly attacking them and trying to get the government involved (which he is also all for), nobody else in the world opposes DRM either. Jim has the absolute bare minimum in terms of self preservation as a gamer, he is not pro consumer, just like the Epic storefront isn't. Unless you're about to try and explain to me how bribing developers to remove their game from other platforms to make it exclusive on theirs is somehow pro consumer.
A store not wanting to sell some hate-speech / hate-crime / hate-anything is not censorship. It's their right to put on their store whatever they want.
Jim argues (rightly) that the more of these ultra-controversial shit games land on steam, the more likely it will be that countries get lawyers involved to say what is allowed and what not. Just like it happened with Lootboxes.
See above.
If people uploaded porn, rape videos and neo-nazi propaganda to youtube, would we be crying "censorship" and "social just bullshit" at youtube? No, it is their right and their duty to keep THEIR sites free from that shit, unless they want to face the consequences that come from HAVING that shit on their sites.
/thread
>a store must sell whatever faggots tell them to sell
Yeah user thats really smart.
Sell strapons in the toy car store.
Funko pops are the ugliest shit ever.
Is there anything else that screams """gamer""" like they do?
I see you're trying to shill your videos here after getting your ass handed to you today and losing part of your viewer base. Kindly fuck off.
He isn't even asking for its removal you absolute retard.
All he does it point out that Valve are fucking idiots for allowing those games onto Steam.
Because, guess what, it will scare away actual devs and publishers and attract the attention of populist politicians.
DUDE FUNKO POPS LMAO
I wasn't talking about the store I was talking JIM and and you telling me that store taking down some how makes jim not pro censorship
if he wanted the game gone because of it's content he's pro censorship regardless of what the store does
>fat kek dresses up like a nazi for shock value early on
>fat kek gets scared he'll be blackballed by the rest of the socjus cartel for his persona, so he stops doing that and adopts the "CLOWN WORLD" persona
>fat kek lobbies for censorship and continually goes to FIND shovelware garbage to be offended by--the only good thing about this being he shouts about when chink trash tries to subversively install coin miners through Steam auto-updates which makes me 1000% more against Epic Games because WHAT MAKES YOU THINK CHINKS AT TENCENT WON'T TRY TO DO THAT SHIT TO YOU THROUGH EPIC GAEMZ STORE, YOU FATBURGER
But he is in favor of the government getting involved with the lootboxes
>It's their right to put on their store whatever they want
>But if you put stuff on your store that I don't want, lawyers will get involved and tell you what you can and can't put in your store
The duality of a libtard
Never listen to the opinions of an obese person on anything.
This. Jimbo takes whatever stance he can whenever its convenient for him.
1989
There are quite a few examples of this now
Wonder if it’s actual paid shills or just discord trannies
>All he does it point out that Valve are fucking idiots for allowing those games onto Steam.
By that logic he should be advocating taking down any game that might offend them such as GTA V and hatred and many others but I dont see jim doing that
I wonder why HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM?
I'm not even Jim, I'm some center right leaning german fuck, who happens to agree.
Steam is full of shit games, some broken, some racist, some rapist.
And
>losing part of your viewerbase
Nigger please. As if jim would lose any significant amount of viewers over this. Hell, all I can see is people underneath either agreeing, or at worse, politely disagreeing. No idea how far you have to scroll to find the "Fuck you, unsubbed" comments, but I sure as fuck didn't see any.
Also: Why would he care? He doesn't run adds on his show you dumbass. It literally doesn't matter if he loses viewers for this, because he doesn't rely on that for income.
based.
Did I strike a nerve?
Yeah. If I don't like I just don't buy it.
No, He was against them in the first place and said if devs/publishers aren't gonna cool it, the law is gonna cool it. And as Devs/Publishers were unwilling to scale that shit back, he was happy to see the government force them to dial it back because else, abuse would become ever more rampant
Niggers can you read? He didn't say he WANTS layers, he warned that LAWYERS WILL COME, because governments fucking hate this shit going wild. He always argued for them to self-regulate before "the man" comes and regulates for them. He never wanted it to get so far that lawyers are needed. He WARNED them to chill before this happens. If he wanted what you are saying, he could have just done nothing. Or start right away with a "write to your local representetive" campaign. But did he? Nah. Because it was never his goal to get the law involved.
Gory games are mostly normalized in American society by now and as such are less likely to cause shit-storms.
They are less risky than titles involving rape, homophobia or racism.
That's just the way the cookie crumbles.
And yet every time the lawyers and governments do get involved, he praises them. Why are you so eager to shill the fat man here? Why are you THIS defensive over a pretentious e-celeb?
owo
>it was never his goal to get the law involved.
because takes his and his shitty SJW's friends power away from doing it themselves
Games involving rape have always been risky. Just look at RapeLay, which undoubtedly Rape Day was inspired by. Even Japan's hentai market thought it went too far.
If I went to a store that said they would allow strapons yet they ban ones that are pink or that are small enough to considered child size I'd have a problem. Either it's all okay, or none of it's okay.
Like I said. Because they step in when any other reasoning has failed. Would you really rather have vanilla Battlefront 2 back? Would you rather every game now only gives you upgrades via purchasable loot boxes?
Fucking what?
>They are less risky than titles involving rape, homophobia or racism.
GTA V has all of this and more and there are other games as well see this game has full frontal porn of a loli raping her father and then biting off his head
Stop conditioning zoomers to suck Chinese cock
06 get
Your analogy isnt the same as the one you are responding to idiot.
If you have to preemptively curate your store to avoid legal threats from authoritarian governments, then you never had the right to put what you want in your store.
>Fucking what?
see
Even they hate China and chinks.
Remember when jim was 100% okay with best buy removing gta 5 from shelves because feminists got mad? how he said "They weren't taking gta 5 from you, it's best buy making a personal decision on what they're stocking.". But now that steam is choosing to allow something he doesn't like all of a sudden he's super against it.
>he's not for it
>if the devs aren't willing to do, he was happy to see the government force them to do it
Shut the fuck up
Battlefront II didn't remove its lootboxes because of government though. The Netherlands actually found them to be legal.
>I'm some center right leaning german fuck
Say no more ahmed, we now understand why you love fat cuck white boi socialists
Jim Sterling funny, and all but he is tragically uninformed about how businesses work, or the industry in general. Devs have been asking for years, and years to loosen the restrictions on getting games onto Steam. Yes all kinds of terrible games are on Steam, and Valve does not care about it. The alternative is to have the old, extremely curated Steam where it was extremely difficult for independent developers to put games up without going through a publisher. Games like Five Nights at Freddies could not get on steam until Greenlight. Also Bloody Harvest: Organ Harvesting of Falun Gong Practitioners so what I'm trying to say is that a company with 15 games is not taking down steam, and your AstroTurf campaign is a little silly.
Who is this fat fuck.
and more importantly
who the fuck cares about some fat fuck opinion
is he trying to pretend he is a dictator or some shit?
"Jimquisition"?what the fuck is that name lmao, cringy shit, sounds like some desperate attempt to form some sort of following off bad opinions and shit skits.
Just like 80% of youtube content.
I will never understand why first worlders take "online" politics so fucking seriously, like lmao read a book or try to take that initiative into the real world politics and problems.
>Japan's hentai market thought it went too far.
No they didn't there are things that make rapelay look like small time
No. I'm saying that steam is hypocritical. Why is this game target when they did nothing to violate the ToS? If they're going to allow porn games and ban stuff half hazardly and without any set guidelines then it's just a poor job on the store front.
Context matters.
GTA is well established as a somewhat edgy game and it makes sure to put those topics into context, as in those who rape, are homophobic or racist are "bad people".
Games that are quite abstract like Evenicle do have an easier time getting away with such topics as well.
The only things Sterling can blow out are his knees.
You have to be beyond stupid to complain about Valve and Steam in a world where PC digital distribution could potentially be in the hands of the likes of Microsoft, EA or Epic. Not even worth watching that garbage.
>, as in those who rape, are homophobic or racist are "bad people".
well the guy in rapeday didn't look like a good guy did he also GTA V uses rape as a joke
>Games that are quite abstract like Evenicle do have an easier time getting away with such topics as well.
and rapeday wasn't abstract?
>Shut the fuck up
No really. tell me, are you SO anti Jim, that you'd rather see video games as a whole to get worse, than to admit that he might have a point?
Battlefront was a vision of whats to come should it not be regulated. It isn't about that game specifically, it's about the tactics of lootboxes that are getting worse and worse.
My friend, you and I both know that there is a middle ground between the old steam where only games from big established publishers could get on, and the new steam where anyone with free time and 200 bucks (was 200 right? I don't remember) can put basically anything up there, from racist kill niggers games, to literal tutorial maps, to games that don't even have a .exe file.
SURELY there is a middleground between both these retarded fucking ideas, that allows for fun japanese anime tiddie games, but closes the doors at rape simulators.
No, it's even better. Jim is mad that Valve refused to sell Rape Day because it "got too far". He's literally complaining that Steam NOT selling the game isn't enough to prevent offending him.
Jim raped my eyes with his fatness, can some brit report him to the thought police?
Evenicle is literally illegal under obscenity law by the way.
>Because, guess what, it will scare away actual devs and publishers
I thought you faggots said you didn't want steam to be a monopoly anyway?
>and attract the attention of populist politicians
Who cares?
There is a difference between criminals cracking a bad joke in a narrative game and rape being the primary objective of a game.
Not abstract enough it seems, the title didn't help matters either.
>A store not wanting to sell some hate-speech / hate-crime / hate-anything is not censorship.
Yes it is.
"Hate speech" is free speech. The reason we don't limit what kind of speech is or isn't free, beyond the fact that it's no longer free speech by definition once you start doing that, is that what constitutes "hate speech" is entirely determined by what the people in power says it is, and those people can change said definition any time they want. One day it's just removing a Moonman fangame where you mow down niggers and jews in droves while spouting slurs, but then suddenly non-fringe opinions like "we should limit the amount of migrants in our country and turn away ones with criminal histories or no skills to offer our country" are considered "hate speech" and similarly banned. It's a way to control all speech, and as much as I'm not a fan of people unironically spouting "gas the kikes," we HAVE to defend their right to say it if we want to protect less radical speech from being similarly censored, because this is a scenario where the slippery slope argument actually is true. First they came for [x], etc.
Your obsession with Jim is really getting out of control. I'm really worried for you. It's time to go get help.
>cracking a bad joke in a narrative game
no they use actual rape as a joke
Oh, they're real. And they're clearly spending some big money because every fucking gaming website out there is pushing hard for them, when we've had alternatives like GOG for years.
I'm not from American and as such not familiar with the intricacies of puritanical law.
keep doing x and I'M JUST WARNING YOU lawyers may come, of course i have your own best interest at heart which is why im warning you
It's probably even more illegal wherever you live unless it's in Japan
No. We have rights as americans. Free speech and freedom of expression are inalienable rights.
Nudity and sex isn't frowned upon where I live.
You can buy explicit porn mags at every gas station and softcore porn on TV is allowed after midnight.
But believe what you want to believe.
>rape day
have not heard of this, what
Well, sorta
"Obscene" speech isn't protected either, and there's never actually been a concrete definition on what the hell "Obscene" means in the context of that note.
>rape simulator
You sound just like those faggots who call fps games 'mass murder' simulators. You're saying the exact same thing but it's sexual instead of violent.
>that you'd rather see video games as a whole to get worse, than to admit that he might have a point?
No, I'd rather see shitty asset flips on page 700 on steam with maybe seven purchases than to wholly approve of government censorship and the shady ass bullshit that Epic is doing. I'm not "so anti jim" that I think this completely irrationally and Jim is actually objectively correct, I'm saying it because he's fucking wrong and retarded, and so are you.
>Not abstract enough it seems, the title didn't help matters either.
so all that means is that any adult game that comes under enough pressure will be banned regardless of the rules that's a horrible way of doing business and shows that steam has no spine and subject to any kind of outrage culture
Hey I'm just warning youse steam boys that sumthin' bad might happen if youse keep missing your protection payments. Alls I'm sayin is maybe if you don't do sumthin about it some guys might come in a bust your kneecaps, kapeesh?
No it's not. Evenicle has loli and loli has been successfully prosecuted in the US many times, even without being tied to real cp. It's illegal in some way in almost every nation on Earth.
steam is really pleasing neither side by judging all their games by the standard of mob rule because people bitched
You can get in trouble for disrupting the peace, but not for simply swearing or using obscene language. A women cannot report you to the police for saying "fuck" after tripping and falling. Hell, I can swear all day online.
If you don't get prosecuted for it, it isn't illegal in my mind.
Fuck Jim, I literally don't care about him. I don't watch him (outside the jimquisition that gets posted here every fucking week like clockwork), I don't pay him on patreon, if he pulled a Totalbiscuit and dropped dead tomorrow, I couldn't care less. BUT, he happens to be right about this steam shit, and I'm not gonna act like steam is fine, just to spite some SJW cunt.
>that's a horrible way of doing business
No.
That's exactly how business works in every capitalistic society.
>Steam has the right to curate the storefront however they want because it's their store, it's not censorship
>How dare steam not curate it's store the exact way I want it curated; the law is going to get involved and Valve should be worried!
Either Steam can curate the way it wants or not, Jim can't have it both ways.
I disagree. I don't think there is even a ruling on loli/shota pornography.
But you're acting like Epic is fine just to spite some cunt on steam because he made a rape game
loli has also been successfully defended in the US many times
Steam will sell anything that is not a financial risk for them to sell. I see nothing wrong with that. It's a consumers decision to buy or not buy a game, and those shovelware titles aren't preventing good games from being noticed or selling well.
>buying the division 2 on the epic store instead of uplay
for what purpose?
People who complain about curation really must think consumers are complete imbeciles. It's not like you have a built-in review system where people will immediately flood asset flip games with bad reviews, right? And it's not like you can just get an immediate refund if you happen to buy some complete garbage game that doesn't even launch?
The problem with Jim Sterling is that he's an ugly fat sack of shit and his character stopped being cool in high school. And by high school I mean high school in 1996.

>Castillo was sentenced to 180 days of jail
>The Texas Court of Criminal appeals and the Supreme Court refused to hear the case
no you get denied the refund seen it happen. That is why i dont buy anything on steam unless ive researched it.
I've gotten a couple refunds without issue. As long as you don't have over two hours playtime, they ask for no justification.
You literally can't get denied a refund if it's within the first 2 hours. Steams refund system is automated, unless it's a special case where they extend the refund time for games like no mans sky
Ive been denied refunds at certain times in steams history including during their strict refund era and it was 100% within their policy to refund.
>180 days in jail
Even though that ruling is total bullshit, that's not ruled as child pornography. A guy who used to live around here got 4 years for CP and permanently put on the sex offenders registry, and that is considered a light sentence.
I NEVER even fucking mentioned Epic. I'm just talking about steam needing to do SOME curation. I don't give a fuck about epic store.
And just aside, the Rape game developer HIMSELF said that he shouldn't have put it on steam as it is a "mainstream outlet with children on it". THE DEV HIMSELF agreed with not being on steam.
did the fatty finally sold out?
Well we're talking about now, not whatever era you're referring too. Steam refunds are automated
he is 100% right and the Netflix thing is a good example. I am less annoyed by "controversial games" on steam than I am incompetent/spammy shit. But they come from the same problem.
Theres another issue with that there have been games ahere the developers purposelly stop putting effort into the game at exactly 2 hours in.
They even use in game mechanics to pace the players to exactly 2 hours before you get to the point where there is no game in your game.
why are burgers like this.
t burger.
I said including you fucking fat faggot
What games are you even talking about?
Also Steam reviews exist(and reviews in general) making that a non-issue.
I'd imagine those games would have quite a few negative reviews.
>yeah guys, just hand your info to a company owned by tencent, who mine your data for the chinese communist party

But why?
>The prosecutor argued that comics are for children, so logically any Hentai manga must logically also be for children:
>implying automated refunds cant cause rejection of a clearly legit refund attempt
holy fuck you are stupid.
Yeah one of the big issues is they dont check the validity of a refund request. Even if you provide oroof the automation system ignore it.
From a comment
>Just a reminder that Epic Games Store still doesn't comply with EU GDPR laws on its data protections and privacy rules
is this correct? how can they get away with this?
That isn't specifically for loli or shota porn. That's just boomers being boomers and people complying to the "don't sell porn to minors" law.
>foxnews link
the guy also had CP on him.
>breitbart link
that's from europe.
Thats the other thing. Due to corrupt devs using shills these games are often full with thousand of positive misleading reviews.
works on my end ;)
Fucking SJW cunts. I fucking hate the censorship bullshit. What's wrong with Loli Porn, Rape, Nigger lynching and shit like that? IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT DON'T FUCKING LOOK AT IT RETARD. Easy as fucking that. But no, because these fucking snowflake SJW cucks get their panties in a bunch every time someone enjoys something they don't like it, they gotta go full censorship and remove it.
Those SJW mods don't let me have any fun threads on Yea Forums
>validity of a refund request
It checks if you're within the first 2 hours of playtime. That's the validity. If you're past 2 hours then that's on you for not knowing the refund policy.
Oh okay, so it's a mainstream outlet that has children on it. I guess all of gaming should be sanitized so the kiddies aren't offended. Are we really at the point where we're unironically back to "think of the children"?
Steam has all their porn shit labelled in the adult section and steam asks you your age when you click shit all the time. If you're a kid and you lie about your age and see some shit you can't handle, how the fuck is that steams fault? Should steam be taking scans of everybodys IDs to make sure we're 18 and up? Should i ask my parents permission?
black is slimming. he looks like he only weighs half a tonne instead of the full metric.
>is this correct? how can they get away with this?
chinks have lots of money. they can buy fat fucks like jim for virtually nothing. expect all youtubers to shill epic store in the nearest future
I'm with here, where are your examples? That's a serious issue and Steam's been known to punish devs who tried to manipulate the review system before. And then you have actual reviews you can read outside Steam too, and a short youtube search will show you plenty of gameplay, let's plays and reviews for almost anything you might be interested in.
What games on steam are actually like this? It sounds like you're concocting a very unlikely "What if" scenario.
They are supposed to by law refund a broken game or buggy or fraudelant game.
Hell in my country there is no time limit to the request so 2 hours is arbitary and breaking the law.
All in all this is why gog is better.
I see all these cries and woes from representatives saying we need to ban shit like "Rape Day" from ever being made and all I have to say is:
Have you seen the shit on Exhentai?
>is this correct?
Why would you ask Yea Forums?
exhentai isnt a mainstream shop you silly nigger
>broken game or buggy or fraudelant game
Legally, that's only true in cases where the program is objectively that way for everyone.
And as for Steam's specific policy, which is what anons were talking about, it's only within the first 2 hours. And within the first 2 hours it always works
hell have they seen the other things on steam
Further explanation: In most countries, this only applies to class action lawsuits and in cases where the program simply does not work for anyone. This happened once where a game was released on Steam without an .exe, but that was quickly patched to work.
steam has offered refunds for games that dont work due the devs just being pieces of shit.
Its literally why refunds exist so know fucking clue what you are trying to say.
Denying refunds is a top tier ameridumb attitude.
I never buy anything before at least looking up the gameplay or review on youtube, so I don't get how anyone falls for shovelware
>Not even Pornhub allows open rape shit
>Steam decides to kick off one rape game
>SJWS! CENSORSHIP! VIRTUE SIGNALING!
Is this the hill you guys want to die on? By defending RAPE games on steam whos developer HIMSELF said it wasn't right to put it on steam?
>fat faggot has opinion
who cares?
I know Jim is often very anti-consumer but this is ridiculous. I hope he's at least getting well paid by epic.
>Is this the hill you guys want to die on?
yes because they already have worse games on steam see
>>Steam decides to kick off one rape game
either they go by their own rules or change them randomly banning games depending on who sees them is bullshit
lets be honest you dont even know who these guys are.
The people defending this shit arent being honest.
On cripplechan all the people defending this shit are pedophiles.
Yes, steam has had extended refund periods for certain games. However, that doesn't mean Steam HAS to give you a refund after the 2 hour period.
And I was arguing that Steam's 2 hour refunds are automated and are NEVER denied, in-spite of some user lying about it.
>>Not even Pornhub allows open rape shit
"What Pornhub allows" isn't a very good example when you know what people actually get away with posting there.
>shitty game on steam
>tons of shitty reviews
>buy it anyway
>play it for 10 minutes, it's total shit
>refund and get full money back
>developers make zero money except from full retards
>gets lost in page 3000 of steam forever forgotten
Wowy I'm glad these capitalist systems put in place work super well. I sure am glad I don't buy shitty or porn games to begin with so I don't have to worry about Steam recommending me shitty or porn games on the store front page. I sure am glad I use the search function and self-curate to specifically search for stuff I like and/or get recommendations from friends/websites I trust. I also do this in retail stores too! I don't go into the women's section because I'm not faggot or a woman. It's pretty awesome having brain cells.
So he's basically a Dobson that knows how to play the system better?
I'm apt to agree. Whoever is yelling that removing Rape Day is censorship doesn't know what censorship is.
There's a difference between Valve removing a game because it's a financial risk, and Jim 'fat cuck' sterling alluding to lawsuits for Valve because Steam doesn't cater to his SJW bullshit.
hmmm maybe because pornhub has live action porn and actual real rape and something made for a shitty videogame that nobody would've played anyway aren't the exact same thing
How does he manage to make so much money
Yet only get fatter
Go look at a video of his a year ago and then the new one
He's gaining and not dead yet. i almost think it's not fair funny fat people die and he is still kicking.
It's a financial risk=equal any game SJW's are mad about today
do you even know where the fuck you are?
DO YOU KNOW JUST HOW RACIST THE REAL WORLD ACTUALLY IS?
go outside your little bubble cities on the two coasts for once.
What is real censorship then?
This
At the end of the day, all this shit is just a trojan horse for mob rule censorship which is already pretty much in place anyway
So why don't they allow
>rape roleplay
>rape anime
?
GUYS HE TOOK THE VIDEO DOWN HOLY SHIT
The funny fat people keep doing cocaine. Fat+cocaine is not a good combination. He isn't successful enough for a cocaine habit, so he dies slow.
Cuck sterling son
All this is because of libertardian politics. Libertardian politics is a clown show. Steams upper management is convinced libertard beliefs will work.
>made me check
Here is your (you).
People here unironically watch Jim?
So why exactly is having no regulation when it comes to the gaming industry a bad thing?
Won't consumers by purchases or whatever deem a game worth a buy or not? With gaming I think the best course of action is to just "let the market decide" if a game sucks people won't buy it and the devs will dissolve.
Also why was it "okay" for Hatred to be on Steam but Rape Day goes too far? I really don't give a shit if some weirdo makes a necrophiliac pedophilia game or a transsexual furry simulator...why does it bother me what other people interest/fetishes are?
I say let people develop whatever the fuck game want to make and let consumers be the judge if it worth a buy or not.
He makes a massive amount of money just he blows it on all that cringy shit in all his videos
When he dies and they have to move shit out of his house i imagine they will have to get a forklift for all his stupid dolls and a crane for his fat ass.
Because hatred is no different to any other game where you brutally genocide npcs.
except scary word hatred and noir filter.
Even if they never see the game on the store, the very idea of a problematic game being bought and enjoyed by someone else infuriates progressives.
Weiss is nice
Go
Probably because they're shit scared of the sjw outcry? The same reason steam took down the game? So you're saying that mob rule from people getting offended is good because, what, fucking pornhub does it? If a supposed 'rape' porno is obviously roleplay then why the fuck should anyone care? Do you seriously not have the cognitive ability to go "Hm I probably won't like this one, I won't watch/play it"? Are you really demanding that every site must remove shit you personally don't like and cater itself to your or jim or who the fuck evers personal taste because you're so braindead you can't decide for yourself?
Give me a titty monster
This whole thing with Epic is so profoundly rotten. Then you have journalists pushing this bizarre censorship agenda and putting more value on some random corporation's arbitrary curation and potential for censorship than the consumer's freedom to buy whatever the hell he wants.
No, it's Financial Risk = A shit game that no one is going to buy that is making both normies and SJWs mad.
Steam sells porn games, hatred, and several other games that SJWs hate.
Censorship isn't a company choosing not to sell a game that wouldn't make them any money, it's a company not being able to sell a game in-spite of it being profitable. One is a smart business decision, and the other is a forced decision.
I'm hoping for an S rank
So it means that Steam is anti-consumer too?
>He didn't say he WANTS layers, he warned that LAWYERS WILL COME, because governments fucking hate this shit going wild.
So when the lawyers do come, does he tell his fanbase to call their MPs or petition their government to stop these intrusive hatespeech laws?
He's basically alt right sterling
Steam sucks after realise showcase wirh blue theme and levels
>a store must sell whatever faggots tell them to sell
Jim is literally telling them what to sell and not sell though.
>Censorship isn't a company choosing not to sell a game that wouldn't make them any money,
you didn't answer my question
>attract the attention of populist politicians.
Video games are protected by the first amendment. This was decided when Republicans wanted them banned for being violent.
Imagine this amount of butthurt for a Movie about rape.
What a joke.
>Steam sells porn games, hatred, and several other games that SJWs hate.
>
only because those game didn't get enough public attention except hatred which took gabe himself intervening to get it back on steam after it was deleted
Roller Derby
by this logic GTA and Mortal combat wouldn't exist
you could argue that a game named "rape day" is an obvious low effort trolling attempt veiled by the dev purporting that it isnt. This could have been done so much better if the dev made an effort to properly troll instead of walk the line between troll and retard.
I'd tell you to read more than one sentence, but you couldn't even do that.
show me a example of real censorship
hmm
>only because those game didn't get enough public attention except that one game that did and was actively put back on steam after the outrage
it took outrage to get hatred back on steam if it wasn't for people calling them hypocrites while people like you defended the censorship hated wouldn't be there
>some racist
You're a progressive.
>mfw i don't give a shit about steam,epic,origin or uplay because I pirate everything
>A shit game that no one is going to buy that is making both normies and SJWs mad.
so wait you're saying it's not censorship if its not profitable
>attract the attention of populist politicians
So are businesses allowed to sell whatever games they see fit, or are politicians allowed to ban as they see fit and the gaming industry should fear them and self-censor to keep them appeased?
give Chinese hag
Yes. It's the same thing that every storefront does. If a product isn't going to make you more money than it costs, it's not worth selling.
Hatred was a real game that was blasted with artificial outrage. It's no different than other shooters(Postal?). Rape Day is a troll game that was never going to sell more than a minimum, and was blasted because it's designed to piss people off. The Dev himself admitted as much.
So should books and live action videos be banned for everyone under 18? Books are for grown adults, so logically any children's book must also be for adults.
One that comes to mind recently was when AssCreed Odysey DLC dropped he made a 15 minute video having a hissy fit about how the main character has a child and therefore isn't gay. Actually bitched for 15 minutes about how a character having a child in a story is so awful because that means they can't be gay
Was this a player-made character or something and that's why he was upset? It's still retarded obviously but at the *very least* I could see where he's coming from with that...if he were to ignore the fact that bi people exist and the character could still be a dicksucker/carpetmuncher on the side.
so where's the hypocrite that was crying about the vinesauce thread? what a surprise he isn't in this thread to complain about e-celebs when it's jim sterling.
>fat faggot who is also bisexual
>nobody ever saw him and his wife in the same room at the same time
>HAVE YOU SEEN HIS WIFE FFS
>sucks chink cock like no tomorrow, epic store so good mmmmmhhh
>epic store has no review and no forums
>BUT MUH STEAM HAS SHIT GAMES ON IT
>unable to figure out if game is shit and wants someone to censor for him
>MUH RAPE GAME author said his game was not good for steam
why did he ask to put it there then? not steam fault
fucking kys OP niggershit
He does know that gay people still fornicate with the opposite sex right? Like they don't enjoy it, purely for the purposes of procreation but they still do it.
I mean that doesn't happen much nowadays because faggotry is acceptable, but in the time period the game takes place in it for sure happened.
In that case you can just refund you retard, unlike on SOME stores.
his horrendous wife will inherit all that, assuming she really exists, nobody really is sure
>Was this a player-made character or something
Basically, the problem was that in the whole main game you can play with either a male or a female character(not customizzable though) and you can have a romance with both other males or females, making your own canon of being straight or gay.
Then the DLC drop, and in it, the story forces your main character to have a straight marriage and a child even if in the wole game you played it like an ultra faggot.
That was a real bullshit, the same thing as the Mass Effect 3 ending that everyone here hated on.
>this would never happen to Batman
But wasn't that the whole fucking point of it? that if you can'0t hit Batman directly, you will hurt him through the people he cares about?
So he's quadrouple retarded, I mean of course let's just push some bisexual erasure a bit more, why the fuck not?
That's pretty retarded admittedly, but hardly something to get super angry about honestly; something to be annoyed with at worst, but then again who's to say the kid's not adopted or something, who fuckin knows or cares
>If a product isn't going to make you more money than it costs, it's not worth selling.
then tell me why so many profession SFW VN's are also being banned
>hate-speech
Nice buzzword
I find it thoroughly bizarre considering he's apparently bi too
Like why the fuck assume that people have to be the gayest or straightest possible, the fuck's going on Jim
it's explicitly your biological kid, if i remember right
Here's the thing; I find games like Rape Day to be ridiculously tacky and I genuinely don't think it has any place on any self-respecting company's storefront.
Having said that, though, there are other games already on Steam that feature rape as far as I'm aware, and this shit hasn't been an issue until a game was brazen enough to put it *right* in the title.
>but then again who's to say the kid's not adopted or something
The game showed the pregnant wife/main character...
But ys, it was overreacting, expetially because that was literally the first AC that give palyers choises like an RPG. the series never had those shits before and nobody cared about, now it become a big deal because it's something related to the faggots.
Anyway, Ubisoft fixed the DLC so now you will ahve a gay "marriage" or something like that
Literally the only reason he dislikes Steam is because they didn't cave fast enough to his SJW cult buddies.
Ah okay, my bad then for assuming.
Regardless it's still such a non-issue desu
The games without exe files?
Those faggots think that only the government can censor, they will keep changing the definition of words to push their narrative.
The fuck? That's not Jim Sterling, that guy is pro censorship all day long and I doubt he magically did a 180 on his position there.
Is it bad of me to kinda hope that Steam keeps its monopoly on PC digital storefronts?
Like usually I'd be all for more options and stuff, but with Steam's near-anarchistic policy regarding what games are allowed and what aren't now, including h-games and everything, I kinda prefer them over any other, even if their rates for devs are kinda shit when compared for others.
Like you know for a fact the Epic Games store isn't going to allow actual pornography, Steam is probably the only mainstream games store that allows it, and even if I personally think it should be sectioned off into some sort of section all its own, it's still really cool.
>including h-games and everything
H-games are randomly banned on steam all the time
The lawsuit video is so good.
Nah, he pretends to be against censorship occasionally, but only when it's happening to something he likes or thinks is good.
i'll pm you the deets
confirmed fatfuck cuckshit
It was more of a unseen issues, it still created plot holes in the game. If a game give you choises, those should be accounted for in the story, or why put those choices in the game in the first palce?
But then the SJW made a slamm conitnuity issues a stupid gay right war, mking all that just an exagerated bullshit.
Nah, no way, he's 100% pro censorship. The most you could argue is that he wants people who share his politics to be plastered everywhere at the expense of others and never ever excluded but that's not being against censorship to any extent. That's just him doing the whole tribalism thing.
Jabba The Cuck likes to sniff farts from Zoe Quinn's asshole and Laura Kate Dale's mutated vagoo.
Oh shit, are they still? I could have sworn they said they were fine with that now so long as it wasn't "just trolling" and there was actual effort put into.
So when something he's on the side of gets censored, deplatformed, whatever the case, you're saying he wouldn't kick up a fuss? I'm doubtful.
I find it amusing that this reply is typed in the EXACT way cuck sterling talks including "but at the *very least*"
You sure you're not in here shilling your video you flabby manchild?
If I was Jim I wouldn't even be asking the question, I'd likely be retarded enough to think that nobody could possibly detect that it's me, and just argue my point, but I'm not doing that, I was asking why exactly anyone was pissed at all you stupid nigger.
He'd kick up a fuss, but not because it's censorship and he's against it. It's because his political allies are being excluded.
Not implying he might not pretend to be against censorship and use it as argument if he thinks that it would help his cause, he's a snake after all.
>Oh shit, are they still?
yup and its completely illogical they let kara no shoujo stay on steam but refuse the squeal
I heard if you talk about Jim Sterling as a fat cuck on Know Your Meme, certain SJW mods like 3kole5 will ban you.
Yeah, true. I guess I just find it hard to believe that anyone is pro-censorship entirely, like as an entire concept. They can't be so retarded that they actually think there's no way that it can be used against them, right?
Right?
good post
Well shit, that's retarded.
It does make me wonder why nobody's been angry about that that I've seen but suddenly when something literally called "RAPE DAY" is taken down, suddenly there's a problem.
The truth is, nobody in this world is pro "censor my guys". Same case here. He is pro censorship, "as long as it's not my guys".
>It does make me wonder why nobody's been angry
there were threads on Yea Forums about it when it happen
I guess it's the same thing as people who applaud whenever politicians grab for just a little more power when it's their party doing it.
Or you could be Jim doing this thing everyone who's every taken a college class can recognize
>Student knows something he thinks others don't
>Asks question he already knows the answer to
>Proceeds to have an epiphany while the instructor answers and interrupts to continue on
>Student now showed everyone how smart he is while thinking no one know's he's being a tool
>Everyone actually knows and hates this person
That's exactly what you just did Jim. saying nigger in your post isn't enough to deflect your obvious shilling
