Well they allowed it and they can either keep it and ride it through or get rid of it and cause the same backlash they got with Hatred. The problem is that they allowed it in the first place, yes, but as it stands in its current state they're in a lose-lose situation.

I'm not saying it is against freed speech to get rid of/not allowing it -this is more directed to the people saying it shouldn't be allowed to exist which a few commenters on different sites have said (haven't really read the comments here in this thread). Should they have better standards? Of course. Is this the tipping point? No, the tipping point happened a LONG time ago. Hopefully in the near future they'll improve their greenlight system.

Yeah. They have to start somewhere, and I think the "backlash" over Hatred was pretty minimal. I imagine there would be even less of a backlash for this one. If they just give some guidelines and explain why these games aren't suitable for Steam, I doubt anyone would honestly care.

Why is this game not suitable for steam? sure, its disgusting, but is that enough to ban a game?
