Valve is a big enough company that they could conceivably start their own payment provider to bypass this.
For example they could sell adult games under credits only and take CC or PayPal for credits.
This way you're not buying adult titles with CC at all. Same way AAA deal with gambling with lootboxes.
Can't people do this already? Just load up your Steam Wallet, and then use those funds however you want?
Cant use the steam wallet when they delist the game.
Yes but the payment processors didn't say "you're not allowed to sell this game with our service" they said "you're not allowed to sell this game period or we walk".
There's the bullshit right there.
Come on, Gabe. You know you wanna.
You do know what happens to Valve Time any time someone tells Gabe to hurry up, right?
