DLF macht jede zweite Sendung diese Woche darüber wie schlimm die Linke ist und macht dann eine Diskussion ob sie zu kritisch auf die CDU gucken wegen des Strandkorbes...

And if you do the same with taxes, it's called CumEx and a huge scandal, and yet barely any of the fraud money got paid back and a working defense is "I just don't remember doing anything wrong"

Noted, sorry And no, to me it wasn't clear, but that's on me. I was looking/waiting for your thread because I was curious what you think, kinda jumped the gun replying. Didn't mean to annoy you. I'll shut up now

Absolutely feel free to disagree with me here, of course but I'm not happy when that end I came in a bit late on that anime, because I at first dismissed it, thought it would be painfully straight... and yeah, I was wrong, it's not that It's... kinda yuribait instead, it almost pains me to say

lol, I was right, if I can believe the people on the Cantonese subreddit. It apparently *is* not Mandarin, but Cantonese, and even that with an awful accent that gets the tones wrong You call that journalism, @futurism.com, @f-w-l.bsky.social? I call that a hack job

Sven "DrMcCoy" Hesse @drmccoy.dmchome.de · 20/09/2026
What a shoddy article, quickly pushed out. They couldn't even find one Mandarin speaker to translate what that facsimile said, and if it was really "ranting"? Heck, I'm not even convinced they really know if it was Mandarin and not another Chinese language

There's also apparently going to be a Made in Abyss movie? I still haven't watched the anime proper... Also because I heard conflicting things about certain aspects of it Since of the anime season seems to be blank, giving me some time, maybe I'll watch that first, then?

Okay, I retract that, this also looks interesting: - Fool Night: myanimelist.net/anime/64459/... Also dropping all at once, but November 26 Premise reminds me a bit of en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trees_(... ?

Things I might watch: - Nia Liston: myanimelist.net/anime/63382/... Not sure about that one. Is that just about a bloodthirsty old person in a child's body? Is the original child still there and it's about the tension between the two?

Huh, no yuri or yaoi anime in the upcoming Fall 2026 season, eh? That's disappointing Still need to see if there's anything else worth watching, though. I think Cyberpunk Edgerunners 2 is slated for fall?

Those are hidden in Germany too See my recent word vomit thread about this in general, for example: bsky.app/profile/drmc... I can talk and complain at lengths about that, but I'll probably annoy people quickly

Sorry for the long ramble :P It's just that this is a topic that annoy me quite a bit

Sven "DrMcCoy" Hesse @drmccoy.dmchome.de · 12/09/2026
The age-checking isn't particularily hard, for either the shop or the customer I went through it multiple times in different shops. Funnily enough when buying old kids games (for nostalgia purposes) that were published in the early 90s before the current rating system, so they flag as unrated
130
Sven "DrMcCoy" Hesse @drmccoy.dmchome.de · 12/09/2026
Also, of course, instead of actually doing the age gating and then selling them, Valve just doesn't sell them at all, which is again far too strict and the easy way out
130
Sven "DrMcCoy" Hesse @drmccoy.dmchome.de · 12/09/2026
*However*, Valve is way more strict in what counts as adult only. Or the publishers / indie devs mark the game too eagerly as such, maybe A lot of games with adult-ish content would probably get a more lenient rating in Germany than hard under-the-table adult only
140
Sven "DrMcCoy" Hesse @drmccoy.dmchome.de · 12/09/2026
This is all, essentially, according to German laws. Games that are marked adult only aren't allowed to be advertised. And while they're not forbidden to be sold, they are supposed to be sold under the table, i.e. not openly displayed, and shops need to check your age
140
Sven "DrMcCoy" Hesse @drmccoy.dmchome.de · 12/09/2026
They just won't show the store page Once you have the game in your library, you can view the steamcommunity page (i.e. the forums, etc.), but still not the store page
150
Sven "DrMcCoy" Hesse @drmccoy.dmchome.de · 12/09/2026
At least for the moment, having the game for sale itchio is a workable workaround, I found Also, at least for now (because you can never know what changes tomorrow), I can also still redeem a key for the game bought elsewhere and download and play it just fine with the Steam clien then
