Ludeon Studios has riduclously hypocritical policies

For violence, I remember Left 4 Dead 1/2 both had to remove a lot of gore and special effects to be sold in Australia. It's not unheard of for games to have to cut content to sell internationally.

I didn't realize that, and I have a few online friends from Australia.

You're reminding me that I actually censored a game myself in one context: Gears of War.  I don't mind gore generally, but the game was a bit too liberal with leaving effects on-screen.  Since it was obstructing my view in a shooter it had to go once I started doing MP.  I'd rather see where the enemy is.

Christ on a raft, just stick it on loverslab or something with the rest of the cartoony gameporn. Why on earth would you put it on steam anyways? The people looking for that particular kind of mod would use the page previously mentioned, or something like it, not steam workshop.

Considering the "porn" in question amounts to a text edit, that's a *bit* disingenuous to the OP.

I didn't stick it on LoversLab because I am legally not allowed submit content there, nor to any other website created with InvisionCommunity. It's unfortunate, but when two companies get into legal battles, all of their employees can suffer. Believe me, LoversLab is the very first thing I thought of when determining where to put this mod.

Sike.

I know shit-all about that website. Never heard of it. The mod was put on Steam because that's the most accessible place and because that's where I got most of my mods.

Remember that we live in a world where in many places you can join the military and be potentially sent off to active combat duty before you're legally old enough to do, under normal circumstances:

Consume Alcohol
Rent a car
Rent a home
Buy a car
Buy a house
Get a bank loan
Engage in intercourse with an adult
Have a full time job
Get married

  You're not old enough to do that, but you are old enough to be sent out to kill and/or be killed. So yeah, a lot of things don't make much sense.

I imagine it's probably 100% the choice of the developer because I think there are far more racy and mature games on Steam that are allowed to be there.

In the end, agree or not it is their choice. There is nothing stopping you from releasing it where the developer has no power, however.

This thread I think encapsulates the meaning of "mountain out of a molehill."

If you'd like, can you upload this "new" mod under the name of Nirvana? I've edited it in such a way that there should be no more unreasonable efforts to taking it down (considering there is no reasonable argument aside from legal nonsense).
