@ZippyBot for those of us who don’t know, what is Horses and why is it banned?
Take me with a grain of salt, but from what I understand Valve banned it when they received their evaluation build, and they found a scene of a child character “riding” on the back of an adult, naked, “horse” character, in the form of a human.
Developer immediately took to social media to whip up the current media frenzy you see now. Whether the developer simply didn’t realize the implications of what they made, or whether they did it purposely for “artistic license” or “anti-puritan shock value” I leave to you.
@HarkMahlberg @ZippyBot I see, well that’s hardly a pedo scene imo but some people like to take things out of context and spin crazy narratives so what do I know. What with that game where you had to “nail a coffin with a live girl inside in order to win”… I know exactly what kind of people sided with that version of the story, and it’s not the kind who’d know which side of a PS2 controller goes up
Wikipedia says it’s a horror game where you take care of a farm and “horses” which are actually just enslaved and brainwashed people in horse masks.
Sounds like a typical indie horror game, tbh. I’m not sure why it would have been banned from steam or even epic. Apparently you can get it on itch.io though.
@Zahille7 interesting! I found this review, I suppose this is it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=–mCTtm1txk and it’d seem #Steam falsely accused it of containing pedo scenes or something. As I read, the game is a critique to certain political systems, if that’s true then I’m not surprised someone somewhere would just seek to ban it, Steam probably just complied and provided the devs with a random excuse that sounded good enough
