"Steam is a monopoly with very few precedents," says dev of game inexplicably flagged as adult-only by Valve: "As a developer, I'm completely at their whim"
The creator of the game Future? No Thanks! has criticized Valve's Steam platform, calling it a monopoly with opaque rules that leave developers at its mercy. The game was repeatedly flagged as adult-only without clear reasoning, despite containing mature themes rather than explicit content. This situation highlights ongoing concerns about Valve's content moderation policies and its dominant position in the PC gaming market.
