Adult content is opt-in and age verified on steam.

Making an "adult content" launcher would just give more targeted scrutiny. It's like saying, "here's the target for you Puritans to attack the whole company over!"

The only way I can think that kind of obfuscation could work would be to have the adult content launcher run through a secondary company under license to use steam software. But then, there's still the pay processing issue, and that license could violate the processor ToS anyways.

Rage against the machine lyrics are factually based.

Lots of police departments started as slaver patrols, Union busters, and right wing militia.

Portland's police, for example, were originally a KKK militia.

  1. Looks like there various news agencies and there was a bug dieting the msn icon. The publisher names are all different.
  2. WaPo, "metaphor"? No child, try again.

It was the lack of handholding. Between modular armor, spells and enchantments without guardrails, lack of leveled lists, diverse lore/region based loot, and other things like shopkeepers having a physical inventory you could steal from, you had a kind of freedom and respect for the player that the later games failed to replicate.

There was still a lot of funkiness to it of course between graphics, bugs, severe lack og QoL features, and just being an older game. The chunk loading was miserable, especially on console where you'd walk a few minutes then load just as long. For the era, however, those drawbacks were forgiveable.
