![]() The creator of the game, Dharker Studios, shared an update on Steam (via PC Gamer) that discussed the restrictions on availability and called the restrictions a "downside of being the poster child for the first fully uncensored adult game on Steam." Past games have included DLC or unofficial patches that provided players with uncensored content, but Negligee: Love Stories offers all this uncensored content up front without any obstacles other than an age gate and a price tag. The message seems to only appear the first time a user visits the page, and did not see the message, having visited the page prior to the warning's implementation.A game with a page that greets players with a warning about nudity and sexual contend and requires of-age players to log into their accounts just to view its Steam Store page, Negligee: Love Stories marks Steam's first voyage into totally uncensored games. PC Gamer notes that the game's Steam store page now shows a message from the developer describing the type of sexually explicit content contained beyond the warning before users can navigate to the page itself. Under this, explicit games will ideally be permitted without censorship (as Negligee has been), though Valve continues to draw the line in its policy at outright pornography. After retracting the warning, Valve responded by specifying that its content policy is intended to allow anything that isn't "illegal or trolling," a definition that was clarified further with the addition of the filter last week. Valve's filter is the company's answer to a months-long back-and-forth with developers of games that included sexually explicit content, which began when several of those developers received sudden warnings to censor such content from their games on the platform or have those games taken down. The idea of the filter is to allow uncensored versions of games like those made by Dharker Studios to be approved, while also giving users who want to avoid such content the ability to block it from their version of the storefront. ![]() ![]() Negligee: Love Stories was one of several games affected by the temporary freeze on new adult game releases or updates being approved by Valve while the company sorted out its newly-implemented "Adults Only" filter, which launched last week. In a post to the official Steam page, the developer said, "I am happy to confirm Negligee: Love Stories has completed the steam review process and will be our first every 100% uncensored game on steam, no patch needed." With the implementation of Valve's promised "Adults Only" filter on Steam, it appears that games falling into that category due to sexually explicit content are being approved once again.ĭharker Studios, which was previously forced to delay release of its adult visual novel Negligee: Love Stories when a Valve representative told it to "assume months" before its game could be approved, has announced the approval has finally gone through. ![]()
