anyone know why Tokyo Clanpool got banned

[EMO GANGSTER]

Tokyo Clanpool was supposedly banned on Steam I'm not 100% sure that's the case may have been just they decided to go just Gog but I'm curious why if it was anyone know?

I'm gonna guess underage sexual content or borderline NSFW content with the minors.

Same reason people are getting banned for using official Shantae Avatars, that were approved and sold by Steam.

Steam previously said that they would only reject anything that was actually illegal, but now certain consultation groups have painted targets on anything with an anime visual style. And for whatever reason, Steam is actually listening to them.

Steam will currently allow games with actual pornographic material in it (like Balder's Gate 3) onto the store without forcing an adults only tag on it, but games with an Anime visual look to them are getting rejected outright or forced behind an adults only tag, which essential makes the game invisible to most people. And this is being applied to anime games with no nudity in them at all.

No honest person thinks there is porn in BG 3.

wonder how those 3 dozen anime style games daily are getting through this "mythical" filter meant to keep them out.

Truly, some peoples politics rot the brain

Stopped reading right there. Baldurs Gate 3 has ZERO pornographic material.
Its about as "porn" as Witcher 3 or similar games.
You see some boobs and naked ass during akwardly posed sex scenes, thats about it.
Pornographic means fully visible genitals and sexual penetration or full visible sexual acts like fellatio or similar with visible genitals.
Baldurs Gate 3 has none of that.

Hasn't stopped them from repeating the lie multiple times.

You're contradicting yourself.

And you conveniently cut out the definition of "pornographic material" that he included a couple lines later.

Just because you think some basic-R-rated nudity is "pornographic", doesn't make it so.

Nudity in of itself is not pornographic.

Tokyo Clanpool AFAIk has multiple scenes where you "rub" your mostly naked team mates for energy and several of them have the appearance of being of a "questionable" age

So that is the most likely reason

Nudity by itself is not necessarily pornographic. Nudity coupled with sex acts, specifically for the sexual gratification of a viewer (in this case the player), on the other hand) 100% is pornographic. It being softcore instead of hardcore pornographic content doesn't change the fact that it is still pornographic content.

False, but par for the course. The definition of pornography CLEARLY requires the depiction of genitalia.

But of course, like quotes, you cut the parts out that don't fit your agenda

Yep, and Baldurs gate 3 isn't coupled with any visible sex. No different then any normal movie that has a sex scene where nothing graphic is shown and you might see boobs or a naked butt.

Those just like Baldurs Gate 3 aren't classified as Pornographic.

You know what they call those late night shows, on premium channels like HBO, that show off non-graphic sex scenes? Softcore porn. That is exactly what you get in BG3.

This "what is porn" discussion is really fascinating but has really nothing to do with the topic at hand overall.
IF the game in the OP was banned/refused release on Steam then its because it has sexual situations with very underage looking characters, something that has always been a big "no no" for Steam, no matter how its presented in the game.
