Currently, only GOG and Itch are still selling this game.

EDIT: It seems the game has returned to Humble Bundle.

When did I (or anyone else) exert pressure on Steam to not carry this? My understanding is this is a decision Steam made.

    Earlier this year steam updated its guidelines to prohibit content that “may violate the rules and standards set forth by steam payment processors and related card networks”

    Visa and Mastercard pressured steam to remove a game because they didn’t agree with its content. Visa and Mastercard only care because they believe they end users care - that’s you, a potential end user of visa and Mastercards service. Valve only cares because visa and Mastercard care.

    You saying “I see why they wouldn’t want to sell the game” helps them to pressure steam into self censorship.

    You’re speaking with an awful lot of confidence on stuff you don’t seem to be very well versed in.

    For example, you somehow missed the fact that just months after payment processors forced steam to remove a game, they’re suddenly self-censoring.
