Well I am on a VN binge...

All characters depicted are 18 years or older.

Red flag.

My understanding is that this is in the same vein as Muv Luv or Fate/Stay Night in that there are H scenes (presumably censored for a Steam release) but it isn't really the main point.

I don't know much about the game though so correct me if I'm wrong.

I've just really got no interest in VNs that are made with that stuff in mind in the first place.

My favorite games of the year so far have been Fata Morgana, Fatal Twelve, and Raging Loop, which focus only on wholesome content like death and betrayal.

This is the last I plan to say here but a lot of them aren't made with that stuff in mind from a writing standpoint, but then it was thrown in anyway as an afterthought because at the time the industry thought it was needed to get the game to sell.

(I don't know if that actually describes Baldr, but I have heard it about Fate, for example)

Why do you think violence is okay but sex is wrong?

It's not an issue of wrong, it's an issue if what I want to play.

I'm not interested in that content.

Obviously the exact terminology I used was in jest.

censorship sucks but there was already a patch prepared before the game even came out for those who cared, and for those vehemently against any H content it was never integral and it's been censored out anyways

none of the H content that I encountered reading two routes of baldr sky in japanese six years ago felt anywhere relevant to the plot, and it really confuses me as to why you'd judge the rest of the game for it

The more important factor that I had not thought of at the time is I don't have PC. Though in general I have just skipped over all VNs with H content in the past. Rather than being anti-censorship, I have an issue with the game having content that requires censorship in the first place!

Still, with enough recommendation and an official release, nowadays I'd probably be willing to give it a whirl. Fingers crossed for consoles!

This is the all ages version, if it was really written with "that" in mind, why is it 1) possible to release without any adult content 2) profitable even with an adult release that preemptively all the existing fans of the writer / company have already played

anyway game of the decade right here.

Baldr Sky...that was Face of Fact, right? Oh, no, that's Baldr Force. Innocence and Emptiness then. No, that's Baldr Heart. Oh, it's the one with Ruins of Silence. Okay, then.

Does that disclaimer actually work, legally? I mean, there's no way in hell the girls in those screenshots are 18, but does just saying they are let you have the uncensored version without ending up on a list?

they can't prove that the girls are under 18, and if they aren't obviously children I'd imagine it works
