I had the opportunity to talk about #PaymentProcessors, (adult) game bans, and restricting game developers' freedom of expression in an interview with GamesMarkt.

#AdultGames #CollectiveShout #Censorship
The current campaign against adult games is only the tip of the iceberg. We talked to game dev, journalist and NSFW game expert @beurkeek.bsky.social about their petition, protest against payment processors and the right of 'obscenity' to exist within art.

Der @domschott.bsky.social hat mich für @okcoolpodcast.bsky.social ausgefragt, wie das mit dem Kauf von GamesMarkt eigentlich so lief, wie wir das Magazin gerettet haben und was wir jetzt damit anstellen. Habe natürlich Betriebsgeheimnisse ausgeplaudert. Hier anhören:

Monatelang strauchelte die Traditionsmarke GamesMarkt, die seit über 20 Jahren die Spielebranche kommentiert und begleitet. Dann kauften Pascal Wagner & zwei Mitstreiter den Laden auf - und wollen nun alles besser machen. Ich habe mit Pascal über all das gesprochen: okcool.space/gamesmarkt-2...

So, remember that big opportunity I hinted at some time ago?
I guess the cat's outta the bag - WE BOUGHT GAMESMARKT

I'll be back into games industry journalism not only as an editor, but as co-owner... and CxO of something, I guess!?!

Worker-owned industry journalism, let's do it right 💪

In a statement to GamesMarkt, German association @gameverband.bsky.social has issued a statement on the recent adult game delistings. MD Felix Falk insists that games "must not be targeted by individual interests or campaigns from particularly vocal groups".

It sounds trivial, but it is important to keep those media and journalists in business. Give money to experts like @acvalens.com for analysing, and to indie media sites so they keep existing and reporting. (yes, this is a @gamesmarket.global ad; if you support us currently, you even get presents!)

WE DID IT! GamesMarkt has a shiny new home with a sleek design and user comforts. This took some sleepless nights because we migrated ALL 61.000 articles from the magazine's 24 year history - so if you find any hiccups, let us know, well improve it on the go! ❤
And please, share as far as you can 😊

Working parents with toddlers aren't allowed at gamescom – a fact that led to frustation this year when mothers were held at the doors, even more so because it was enforced irregularly. GamesMarkt has spoken to affected mothers, as well as the organisers.
