Epic made provably incorrect statements about the game’s content, refused to provide details supporting their claims, and has not shared their claimed AO IARC certificate, which normally includes a link for the developer to appeal. They do not ‘love that studio’, they have effectively ghosted us
Earlier this week, I spoke briefly Epic about Horses, a game that was approved for release on EGS, then blocked after a re-rating
"We love that studio," Epic VP Steve Allison said of Santa Ragione, but maintained that an AO rating was a dealbreaker

![an artwork by Spindle of the character Asimov, a white-haired half-elf woman, wearing a soft golden/peachy lipstick, a "one-boobed" blue dress and golden accessories (Earrings, necklace, bracelet, ring), while holding a glass of [too expensive and tastes very generic but ordered it purely to look "expensive"] red wine, which covers her uncovered breast. A reflection of Ottilie looking at her with a ._. face on it while looking at Asi.
(btw, this a repost - Asi's hair was still long at the time)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:pb7gp4lz3cslvw4oha36b4fa/bafkreigwjvsqztfjt6tp3j6ugiymsv3gtrubi2elwcjpqwitgjimnzfufq@jpeg)

Non-nude PSA to please be nice to pigeons today (and every day). They’re lovely and gentle and have hard lives and deserve your kindness ❤️
A watercolour I painted, and a photo of a pigeon I encountered >>> They all look this beautiful if you stop and give them the chance ☺️

This happens with*everything* now. No matter how grave the crime or one-dimensional the injustice, after four days the hivemind of American punditry decides that the Real Story is how the people upset about it are the real villains.
