The issue isn’t about whether we want to or not—it’s about our right to play NSFW games. If they can stop us from playing NSFW games today, what’s stopping them from banning horror games, adventure games, dating sims, or even gacha games tomorrow?

2nding this. From the moment you give a company the right to dictate what you can or can not consume, there is absolutely no guarantee they will stop. First it's the NSFW games, because they are immoral because just gooners consume them and those should get a life anyways. Then it's LGBT content, because it's almost sexual anyways. Then it's any games with more mature themes, like complicated interpersonal relationships, opression of the system, etc etc. Companies aren't only greedy for cash, but for control as well
NLCH's idea is right, however, it's tad more complex than "you give a company the right to dictate what you can or can not consume".
Raw biology and common sense dictate that social superstructures have to care about members of said structures (citizens) propagating successfully. Said social superstructures' populations will dwindle otherwise, and superstructures themselves would gonna disappear as a result.
Inappropriate porn (guro, pedo, bestiality, whatever glorifies unhealthy sexual intercourse) affects these matters directly.
Payment gateway providers, for some reason, got sick of this bullshit and pulled the plug so hard so even Steam (with all their indifference) was shaken a little. Despite them [payment providers] not giving a damn about anything but profits. Something bigger scared them, apparently. Which is weird to see - however, it's only about 1/2 of the real problem. And it - believe me or not - is a lesser half.
Now, this probably will gonna have me permabanned here too, however, I'll take a liberty to tell about second half of the problem without self-censoring things too much. I'll damn explode otherwise. This thought is pestering me since one of Patreon purges of 2018, time to spill it a little.
The second half of the problem is that you can't just ban things blindly.
You have to provide alternatives.
Reasonable, sensible alternatives.
Example from our grim past: various sexual deviations were banned in Germany in late-to-middle of past century.
HOWEVER
An alternative was offered. As a matter of fact, more than one, unified by a singular relatively sane idea.
A culture of appreciation of healthy human body. And an encouragement to give birth to healthy children.
Do note that I refer to this specific point of space-time as an example of a right IDEA about "how and why should we deal with porn". Not as an example of right EXECUTION of said idea (since it's obvious that the execution was shite and the world would be a bit better place if all that shite wouldn't happen).
Yes, current carpet-bans of payments to prawn creators puts the author(s) of this idea well below German politicians of 193x. Simply because payment ban initiators didn't offered any sane alternative AT ALL.
> Then it's LGBT content, because it's almost sexual anyways.
Please stop dragging LGBTQ+ into this.
Structures which support this stuff officially deserved this specific predicament by doing everything to make healthy relationships between heterosexual people viewed as a deviation.
I'll probably change my mind once I won't have to guess the gender of displayed person in whatever new porn piece of "art" ended up on my desktop. I have to guess too damn often nowadays.
I don't get why people don't understand the self-awareness and responsible framing of erotic fantasy.
The VAST majority of people with 'rape kinks' understand the divide between what they find hot and how consent should be handled IRL. Same with dubcon and the majority of other kinks that people find icky. If a creator is using content warnings on their work, that is enough to demonstrate that they understand that their work may contain things that should not be replicated IRL. Any player with half a brain should be able to understand the same.
And you don't get to spend half your post ranting about the necessity of reproduction and whining about 'not being able to tell the gender' of the people in your porn and then claim this issue has nothing to with LGBTQ+. Collective Shout is a Conservative organization with open contempt for queer people and the way you talk about this issue makes it crystal clear why you're interested in apologizing for their tyrannical censorship.
You're the first one to mention rape kinks in this sub-thread. As a matter of fact, in whole thread. What's this information doing here? Are you responding to right theme? And, by the way, do you understand that normalization of rape fantasies is not something that should be allowed since it creates too many complications for us fully-consensual people?
Oh, you don't.
You've failed your Reading skill check.
Try rerolling it.
Why do people want NSFW games?
Key Points:
Many users see NSFW games as a matter of personal freedom; restricting them could set a precedent to ban other types of content.
Some argue it’s about biology and human sexual expression, not just profit or control.
Payment and platform restrictions (e.g., Steam, Patreon) often limit access, sometimes without offering reasonable alternatives.
Responsible creators include content warnings, and most players understand the difference between fantasy and real life.
Debate exists over the impact of sexual content, with some emphasizing ethical boundaries and social implications.
Overall: Desire for NSFW games combines personal freedom, sexual expression, and frustration with platform restrictions, balanced against ethical and social concerns.
Well NSFW games are not so popular and also if these type of games should be made so then a little restriction or age verification should be necessary in case that almost less than 16 does not reach that content (well still now a days less that 15 are reaching 18+ sites)😒and maybe this should be banned or too restricted like accessing dark web
