I skimmed through this, and some other stories from the same "news author". Either the author, Matt Wales, is actually bipolar and needs to seek treatment, or he just angles his articles about the given topic based on whichever third party threw him some chump change to buy a coffee.

I've never seen someone be so anti-steam, and pro-steam at the same time. One article is praising steam as the best thing that happened to humanity, the next one is talking about how terrible they are and how much they just want to censor games and kill studios they don't like.

One article is praising Nintendo as the greatest gaming company ever, and the next is talking about how evil they are regarding the palworld lawsuit.

I know publications have their bias, but at least most of them are somewhat consistent in their bias....

I did find this comment under one of his articles regarding this game. (Yes, he's made three articles about this game, one after the other), and I thought it summed up my short experience with eurogamer. (most other comments were very anti-steam, but that's to be expected since everyone else that threw up in their mouths quickly clicked off the article)

15 years ago, Steam was a curated walled garden. Every game was manually approved for sale, and if they didn't like your game and didn't think it was good enough, then you didn't get to sell on there. It was gutting when my game was sold on XBLIG, GOG, Green Man Gaming, and some other stores that I can't remember, but Steam just gave us a flat-out "no".

To be fair, the game was pretty crap (Eurogamer gave it an 8/10).

puritan bullshit all up and down this thread, and bronies protesting too much

As innocent as a naked sleepover at Neverland Ranch.

this is what happens when 350 people make like 50 billion, fucking reality collapses and they believe they own the world

The world getting increasingly moralistic and neurotic.

ps: Watched the trailer, read a bit, it seems like the game is very horror-oriented, not sure if the message is dehumanization or what, but looked like a great opportunity to show parents teaching fucked up morals to children and perpetuating a system of oppression was prevented because moralists see nudity and think it can only represent sex - meanwhile, by the screenshots, it represents dehumanization.
How the American WASP-culture addiction to guilt and shame came to control the world after the popularization of internet is quite sad.
