Why wouldn't they want to host more shit that they can take a cut of sales from?

>>344457098
They print money

>>344457098
Valve wants more money.

I'd buy them if they weren't censored to hell and back.

The fuck is the point in buying a VN with all the sex scenes taken out?
>>
They're games (most of them)

No. No you're not.

visual novels are the only pc games worth playing

Because people make them, sell them and buy them.

Why not?

>>344457098
It's a market they're willing to explore for untapped profits. It doesn't damage the platform image because they require censoring and "just close your eyes nigga, look away".

Name another platform for VNs with better exposure than steam.

We are giving PC gaming just that tiny little pushing it needed to become great again!

Shut the fuck up Nico

I really don't understand either OP.

Gaben said he wouldn't let them on the platform, but now they are and I haven't heard from him in years. Is Gaben dead?
>>
>>344457098
I don't understand the question
>>
>>344459483
Probably realized he's better off just being a businessman making money than trying to pander to his "fans" and maintaining a public persona.

How is this allowed on steam? It even has 98% positive reviews
>>
>>344459701
Frankly I think they should be on Steam, but the problem is censorship. There should either be a Steam for adults or some other kind of platform should come up to distribute the games digitally.

When I start my company I'd love to make a Steam for VN, but nobody wants another shitty DRM scheme.

>>344460615
ironic steam weebs
>>
>>344460615
Alot of normalfags play it ironically. I wish I was joking.
>>
>>344461498
Most companies release the "clean" version on steam, and then have a link to the adult patch if you want it.
>>
>>344463050
Well, considering I primarily want to localize nukige (VN primarily about porn scenes), that'd be pointless. Oh well.
>>
>>344457098
Why are western games on steam? They are all garbage.
