Of course itch lied about it. Of couuurse. Integrity? What's that? For all the problems Steam does have, at least they do actually manually review games instead of going by an AI-read description and then not budging?! Absurd!!
Plus the double standards of a bunch of games being fine to host without problem even though they have THE SAME STUFF. Don't trust a bot to do stuff when it comes to people's work and then blindly trust its decision.
Also, really really appreciate the consideration towards us in the UK. Like it's actually abysmal, we can't access SO MUCH because. What. Of "children". We all know it's not really for the sake of kids, and we don't blame them. Those who have been adults for a long time (me and so many others) can't access things marked adult on itch because itch can't be bothered to deal with the faff that is age verification, so it's easier to just lock british people out and pretend they don't exist. Thank god for vpns, honestly... At least Steam (quite annoyingly, but at least it's a way) requires the use of a credit card to prove age, then you can view everything.
Sorry, got rambling about it. This whole debacle with collective shout and the payment processors is actually horrible and they need a slap.
My ass WILL be playing the remaster on Steam! (And if you need the use of a Steam Deck to check compatability/get it deck verified, I offer my own up)
It would be a shame to lose the older versions, so having them on patreon would be a nice way around that 🥹💖
