Why when I play a few Incest related games the default relationship is 'maid' or 'tutor' or something similar?

Okay this thing kinda bugging me since I played a few games with incest on it.

It was clear that they're related but the default relationship when choosing one is like 'maid' or 'tutor' or something similar instead of Mom.

And this applied towards other member of the family like sister and aunt.

Is there kinda law out there that prevents the mention of 'mom' or 'sis' or any family members? Or it's just a taboo?
 
A lot of people don't want incest in their game, but might like other things in that game. Many games let you set the relationships yourself to appeal to a wider audience. Also, games that get their support via Patreon HAVE to do it this way. Their TOS doesn't allow incest, so games with explicit incest get removed. That's why a lot of games have an "unofficial" patch that adds it back into the game, as a sort of loophole.

I see thanks for the info dump
 
The woes of devs using Patreon...
 
Just use patches and incest will be back.
 
It makes for a broader business model, and the patchers take are of the rest in hangouts like this one.

The real hero's are the patch makers (and definitely game Dev's :love:)
 
Services like Patreon are very strict on content. If you try to have incest game on patreon and they find out about it, they will boot you off the platform.
 
Lots of places restrict even implied incest unfortunately, its pretty dumb but if they let them in the 3 internet karens will spam it and try to cancel them.

Yeah it's the second, not the first. People who hate incest hate landlady/flatmate nonsense and won't play the game anyway. It's the prudes at visa/mastercard who demand every game be censored or banned from sale, and every couple years they get another burr up their butt and demand more censorship.

I don't think "maid" games are incest-coded, that's a whole different genre.
 
Think about it. Incest is taboo. You don't fuck your mother, your sister, or your Grandmother.
 
You don't, because the rich fucks behind mastercard and paypal want to make sure it's something only they get to do.
 
It is done for marketability. , some platforms are strict on this

It's exclusively to get around censorship like Patreon, who disallows incest references. I still remember when Patreon cracked down on incest and MrDots had to drastically change how Dating My Daughter functioned to keep the game from getting banned. There was an update where they completely removed any references to father/dad, even when it wasn't in the context of the MC. (There was a conversation with Elena talking about her own dad, and in the place was just an empty space, even though her father isn't even a character in the game.)

Usually, games that have custom relationships have a built-in execution code that automatically "restores" familial references if you rename "landlady" to "mom/mother."

It's annoying...but it's, unfortunately, just the nature of the beast at present.

Very well said.

YET, weirdly, right now, playing Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition, NOT the original, I can still kill (rhymes with "bids", being paranoid to not have the site targeted).
AND having the Gore toggle on, they explode like chunky salsa (and I get a negative rep for it)... EDIT = On STEAM btw...


...But THANK FUCKING GOD I'm prevented from playing a 3D PIXEL-BASED Mom Son (or any other familial combination) game... say...

...HUMANS... (sigh)...
 
Patreon didn't care about this type of incest content, as long as it all focused on adult characters. The problem began with payment processors, specifically PayPal, who began to pressure them and even suspended this payment method. Then, Visa and MasterCard (I mean the banks that own these companies and their subsidiaries) pressured them to remove incest and other content. Patreon couldn't use the banking system without money, which is the main means of funding adult games. They had to adapt to avoid extinction.

The sad thing is that the quality of games featuring incest has dropped significantly. They can no longer delve into the theme, always maintaining an ambiguous relationship, which harms the story despite the developers' efforts.
 
Censorship reasons and payment processor reasons.
