        Watching the Game Grumps do House Party is also pretty damn funny but playing the actual game is…less.

      So, there’s this game still on Steam called Slaves of Rome that is the definition of non-consentual NSFW games, and it’s also an open-world action RPG, so the format is very accessible and also not badly done for an indie. So, it has me very confused why it was spared.

              … How is that the name of an actual game?

              Just in case, no, that was a joke about Voltaire, the philosopher.

              The phrase “Holy Roman Empire” is most commonly used for the German empire that went from Charlemagne to 1800-ish (long after the fall of the “other” Roman Empire). Voltaire criticized the HRE of his time calling it “neither holy, nor Roman or an empire”.

              This quote is kind of a meme among Crusader Kings players for example because HRE is kind of a pain in these games.

                In the wide world of indies, no name is too weird to use.

                I did think of Voltaire the person, but I wasn’t aware of the Crusader Kings connection.

          Eh… I am not gonna protect games fundamentally about raping people. And would ask that you maybe not associate that with smut and art games.
