adult games are forbidden in germany on steam?
Viewing post in 0.5.9, New Chiaki, Steam, some good news comments
yes exactly the german authorities wanted steam to make an age verification for games from 18. but since steam didn't want to go to all the trouble with the age they blocked the games in germany even though they are legally allowed but steam doesn't give us access anymore so i'm always happy when people like you make games on itchio so that i can still play such games.
to prove our identity we have to show our identity card which is then scanned and it is then deposited by the system after confirmation on your account this is the most used variant but there are also simple ways but I can not describe exactly because these do not occur so often but yes they have changed the text in the meantime even it is now called "that these games are not available at the moment" normally should be games like cyberpunk etc which are also from 18 already be blocked because these also meet the criteria so I hope very much that the game will continue to come out on itchio or we get a key or something because these we can still activate wants to see more of the game and find it just therefore very sad that steam is not trying to insert this age confirmation especially because the state just says make the age verification pure and I can continue as before because the games are not banned only the sale without age verification
i used a translator sry if somthing is wrong xD
