“Steam started blocking Australian users from viewing or buying 18+ rated games on September 9, 2026, unless they attach a valid credit card to their account. Valve’s rollout affects hundreds of mature-rated titles, including Cyberpunk 2077 and Doom Eternal, and it doesn’t matter whether the account is brand new or fifteen years old with a library full of paid-for adult games. Without a credit card on file, those store pages, search results, and even home-page recommendations simply disappear.”



commbank is evil though
Pick your battles, boobies on steam or big bank bad
This isn’t about boobies on steam (even if they say it is)
This effects games that are violent etc
I’m definitely not signing up to one of the big 4 banks so that I can game.
Were I to go down that route I would get a paid credit card, and just see that $59 (or whatever) per year as part of the cost of gaming.
The zombies who use the big 4 banks are the same people who keep voting for the duopoly, or the other right wing trash parties, the same people who got us into this fascist shitopia
