18+ in this discussion refers to sex and nudity, not violence.

Valve axed smut games

They have NOT axed smut games, which is the primary reason we are still capable of having this discussion.

They chose the boring and predictable path of lowest resistance which is the exact opposite of what they‘re being praised for here. Of course it‘s mildly annoying for Valve and they would rather sell whatever they want but they‘re not fighting for customers here at all.

Weird how the smut developers, the ones who are most affected by this situation, have a diametrically opposed view of the situation than you do.
