Over the past week, gamers have heavily criticized Australian group Collective Shout.
On July 11th, Collective Shout published an open letter to the CEOs behind PayPal, MasterCard, Visa, Paysafe, Discover, and JCB.
As this reporter covered yesterday, it seems incredibly unlikely that any adult Steam games depict underage characters in sexual scenarios.
In 2018, Collective Shout advocated for a campaign to remove Detroit: Become Human from Australia’s store shelves.
The group is proudly touting its work pressuring payment processors to get hundreds of Steam games banned.
