Needless to say, some of the bloggers are unhappy at the idea that Valve has taken a stand for artistic expression and placed responsibility for the media one consumes in the hands of the consumer. There's been a few of these extremely salty, 'how very dare you - what about my feelings?' takes now.

Is there anyone left? Is there a single game JOURNO that didn't piss and moan about Steam letting adults choose what to buy?

In what fucking way do these cretinous shitbags think they are in touch with people who play vidya?
