Um, sorry, but that's probably not true...

Eeehhh...? I just checked right now and calmly downloaded the adult game without any problem.
!Ω Factorial Omega: My Dystopian Robot Girlfriend by Incontinent Cell

According to twistedvoxel, were 28,144 NSFW games, and now only 7,008 are still available for purchase. The "Dystopian Robot Girlfriend" game may not have been removed from the store at all, which is why you were able to download it.

Is it all true?I have no idea but I found a response from one of the moderators with the nickname “No Time To Play” to a question about refunds for deleted games. The rest of the topic is also interesting (f.e. disappearance of the IWBTT game with screen).

Will the other, not yet removed games disappear?

 You'll have to ask the CEO of Visa or Mastercard.

Why were some games spared, some shadowbaned , and some nuked?

IDK but It is possible that if the game was available for free download (too), Visa and Mastercard's blackmail did not affect its availability but what about other cases? 

Sorry for chaotic post, I hope my point of view was useful.

Let's put it this way - I don't really trust any site/post about ban adult games info so much especially if it's Twistedvoxel, I usually like to check it works or not and as the man said before -> if you know the games names they are still available for download.

For example:
Strive 4 Power is still available in Itch io
Strive:Conquest 0.11.0 Release - Strive: Conquest by Strive4Power
Or even Karryn's Prison available in both Steam and Itch io
Karryn's Prison в Steam - Karryn's Prison by Remtairy
Or even violent adult Mad Island is still available in Steam
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2739590/mad_island/
Or even very famous NEKOPARA is still avalible in Steam
https://store.steampowered.com/app/333600/NEKOPARA_Vol_1

So... maybe someone got hurt by it but they will not be able to remove everything just in principle... because they are already in trouble as many people are dissatisfied and may even go to trial. Someone even threatened to hack the data of itch io and Steam and post them online if anyone would dare to remove their favorite game and someone even said that even try to kill someone who would dare to delete my goddest precious 18+ game, pahahahahaha~

What’s even funnier thing is that pirates button has been activated with the words - "Our time has come" and they started to promote games that censorship wanted to block therefore censorship guys only untie hands to the pirates but did not achieve anything. Aaaand you knoooow... it is almost impossible to fight piracy because they can always find a loophole that will allow them to leak games into the network for free. So this censorship guys are literally embodiment of idiocy because they don’t really understand how it works and they most likely make a mockery of themselves because the web is full of people who go around their rules very easy. Maybe somewhere it will be blocked but it can also be downloaded from other sources and in general when you try to block something in the network just because you personally don't like lt then you’re more likely to threaten your life than block what you wanted especially if it's like 18+ content.

Welp yeah... many h-games are still available for download and I would even say almost all h-games even if you can’t see half of them or 99% of them in the game library it doesn’t mean that the h-games have been removed or something like that... buuuuut... mostly the developers themselves have suffered now more because of that h-game censore pressure thing than a regular user because developers losing thier time and losing money and of course most importantly the nerve cells because of someone + it is not clear what can happen next... Does it make sense to do something with my game or not? Should I... update and add something new or not? You know... these questions that come into your head and drive you crazy because you really don’t know what’s right or wrong. So... in some sense we should be supporting different h-developers right now even if you can’t support them financially then at least support them morally and no matter are you a pirate or not just support the h-devs because this is a very specific situation that may affect everyone in the future and because It’s more better than just saying that everything is over.
