The older news isn't relevant anymore and DrP didn't want to keep clicking on the x all the time because he also hates cookies, so here we go.

Yuri is softcore enough for steam~

Lets hope its changing.

of course... why would i want them to be even more puritanical about sexuality? :p

So many trolls/prejudice comments on that page.
I really hope that all of them are gonna grow up to be a dysfunctional jobless adults if they haven't already.

And for the news this is really a big step forward,but I still highly doubt that something hardcore like Sapphism no Gensou is gonna see the light of day anytime soon.

I just meant that what you said was pretty vague, considering MrEngenious's original post.

His post contained a link, to which I was referring. :) Sorry, I was assuming everyone read it...

I was also a little sleepy.

Maybe they'll put Euphoria on steam too in future.
I suppose one can only hope.

I mean, I'd like to believe that but I'm jaded enough to believe they are more likely subconsciously thinking that lesbian sex is just less hardcore than straight sex scenes.

I don't think its happening. Explicit depictions of genitalia ain't allowed on steam. Kindred spirits would be considered 'softporn' in most countries.

Also is euphoria even yuri?

Let's just hope Valve doesn't have a sudden change of heart and goes back on its word. I won't trust it until this is actually a thing

As far as I know it's just nudity, no sex or anything. I don't know what's classified as softcore, so if it's that disregard my post xD Also it's probably a good publicity for them, supporting lesbian characters and everything, I doubt they'd change their mind.

Edit: disregard the bit about no sex, there is sex, it seems that the genitals are obscured or something. Whatever the case is, we'll see when it comes out.

The good thing is that in the mangagamer blogpost, they said "Let's make 2016 yuri year" or something very similar, so here's hoping they'll pick up more yuri titles :]

The premise of the game seems great. I can't wait for it to be on Steam and be able to be a yuri matchmaker.

Ghost girls deserve love, too!

First a Sono Hanabira game, and now this? awesome.

Now if we could only get Flowers on Steam after it gets translated.

You do know that Flowers is totally SFW, right? There is nothing stopping it from going on Steam.

Indeed, thankfully they'll translate all four games. The fourth doesn't have a date yet, but I think there are going to be four.

I know, but not all games are on Steam, unfortunately.

But I am happy Flowers is getting translated. I asked so many times for it to happen on Twitter. ^_^

Is Flowers full-blown yuri? Or just subtexty onee-sama stuff?
Also, is it official translations?

Yes and yes. It's actual yuri. And I'll have to find the announcement again.

Hmm, since I skimmed through a lot of fantranslated videos of it and kinda didnt see much at all happening in it.

Yeah I don't trust fan-videos, they aren't the same as actual playing the VN.

You could image search "flowers visual novel" and it will show you some of the kissing scenes. :)

Does it involve choices? I didn't see any, thought it was linear (or w/e the word is), therefore pointless to actually play the VN if videos are just there.

Welp my steam wallet is taking another hit.
Anything to support yuri in it's slow bid to take over the earth.

Well a visual novel really is just reading, which I believe Flowers is... a dating sim is the type that gives the choices.

You can look at the various tags in the technical tab. There are a lot of choices and also bad endings.
