Oh trust me, we know. We appreciate the helpful sentiment, this monkey has just been on our collective back for a while! Steam decided that our game contains "frequent sexual content", which we think is very silly. But when we disputed the rating Steam disagreed with us, and now German and Chinese players have to access the game elsewhere, like here.
If you're looking to buy OBSCURA, buying it here on itch.io will also grant you access to a Steam key, and we have seen confirmation from our German players that Steam keys can be redeemed for the game without issue. All the major Steam functionality is the same regardless of whether you buy it there or here, and the game's price in Euros on Steam is almost exactly the same as the USD price here on itch (at least at time of writing). So the only major difference in experience is which platform you'll be paying.
If you're looking to wishlist the game to be notified of a sale, we recommend following us on a social platform (we have Twitter, Bluesky, and Tumblr) since we announce all the sale events we take part in. It's not ideal (I personally really like Steam's wishlist functionality and wish it was easier to get an Itch equivalent), but it'll get you the information.
