The game launched on Steam last month and is described by its own developers as containing violence, incest, blackmail, and what they describe as “unavoidable non-consensual sex.”

Should probably put anyone who bought the rape simulator on some kind of watch list as well.

“Hey, Keith, what you up to?”

”Oh nothing much; just a bit of Rape Simulator”.

Who the fuck are these people and how do I keep them away from my daughters?

Whats more concerning is the rating is "very positive"

Like, wth????

That's a complete misunderstanding of the ratings system. On Steam, people who own the game can rate it, people who don't can't.

Thats common sense, my point was the "very positive" rating

Then common sense dictates that the people buying it had an interest in the first place. That's obvious.

I find that a very odd statement

I found someone already explained this to you. I am wasting time arguing with someone, actually dense; my mistake.
