A hilariously-titled hentai game by the name Aristocunts recently made it to the top of Steam’s “Casual” list. It was released two days ago, this Friday, and it reached the top of this list in that time.

This is basically just pornography sold on Steam, which children routinely access:

Waking up in an Otome Game? Meh, could be worse. Waking up as a servant of the bitchy villainess in an Otome Game? Wicked bummer! Thankfully you've cleared this game before and know the story inside and out, so its time to avoid a bad end by reforming these stuck up duchesses with something that transcends class and creed, your dick! As soon as you wake up in the game world you're greeted by Elizabeth, and her whip! Apparently you being asleep instead of working is a great offense to the spoiled brat, recognizing her as the villain of a game you played you kindly explain to her that her mother's sinister scheme to set her up with the prince is doomed to fail! Of course, you're rewarded with a lashing for *DARING* to address her by her first name so casually... so much for diplomacy.

Once you bend Elizabeth over so she can receive your "disciplining" she quickly changes her attitude and is much more submiss- cordial, much more cordial. With one problem out of the way you set your sights on her mother, Mirza, the true mastermind of the game. It's up to you and Elizabeth to hatch a plan to take down her Aristocunt mother and avoid the game's bad end!

Children having access to pornography is fairly old hat, but this kind of permissiveness is new to mainstream companies. In the past, they would at least maintain the veneer of legitimacy, but now they are just pushing whatever sells, it seems. There are some gems from the game’s Steam page itself which make it hard for me to tell if this game is meant to be serious or not:

While this might not impact proper adults in their mid twenties and on much, teenagers and young men in their early twenties are at pretty high risk of falling into addictive cycles where they pursue this instead of normal romantic and sexual relationships with actual women.
