why do you say its not a game?
Because it's as interactive as clicking hyperlinks on a webpage. It's not a text based adventure like an actual adventure title.
Steam has kept out visual novels and other similar titles because their arbitrary product restrictions. Yet this somehow makes it on there?

I have no idea why they may or may not reject a game. Neither do the people who are freaking about out this.
Just looking from the outside it seems ridiculous that the InternetAristocrat video has the chutzpah to complain about websites reporting about misogyny in the gaming world while at the same time accusing a woman of fricking her way to the top based on nothing more than hearsay.
The whole complaint seems to be that she got her game pushed through b/c she complained of sexist attacks. To then go on and claim she fricked all these people (according to an ex BF) as well as sexually harassed a guy (according to a tweet) to stop attacks on the game is some serious cognitive dissonance.

there were nude pics of her and some of these journalist guys going around. I think that's why one of the subs was banned
And then there's this LINK
it's not that she complained about sexist attacks, it's that she was the main source of the attacks on herself and the profited from the increased attention to get her game onto steam
and then we have the images of her talking to the reddit mods to try and censor stuff about her and her game

Perhaps she played victim a bit. Perhaps not.
All of that is edited down to give that site's knights side of the story just like her shite would be edited to give hers.
That doesn't change that the main video in the OP is a very weak example of journalism and the fact that it bemoans shite journalism and problems w/bias is quite amusing.
Again, if you want to take a journalist to task for a shitty story regarding sexism and bias don't turn around and go with the worlds most cliche sexist attack of "Oh she fricked her way to where she is" or use a tweet from a random person on the internet as a legitimate source.

How does this crazy cat lady posses such great power over the Kingdom of Nerdia?

this whole thing is actually kind of funny. That imgur Novel posted a few posts up make it out to be like a funny war between virgins and feminazis started by a group that hates them both.

Patricia Hernandez makes me die on the inside every time she writes an article. The one about that false rape accusation a few weeks ago was cringe worthy. Everyone called her out on it and she wouldn't admit she was wrong.

Not familiar with what you are talking about, can you link it?

So basically, if you have a working vagina, you can rule the gaming world.
That's what I take away from this.
