The developer of adult game Degrees of Lewdity claims they have been "soft-banned" from Patreon-like subscription platform SubscribeStar, positing ongoing action from conservative activists may be to blame.
"It's still there in a sense, but people can no longer support me, payments are no longer being accepted, and I cannot post the update there.
"Due to the timing, I suspect this is connected with the recent troubles regarding internet privacy and freedom, in the UK in particular, with governments restricting access to adult content," they added (thanks, TheGamer).

Yesterday (September 15), we reported that Valve seemingly no longer permits games with "mature themes" to be released in early access.
