Is the Game Safe for YouTube and Twitch? - Clive Barker's Hellraiser Revival

Is the Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival Safe for YouTube and Twitch

Not if you play it as is. Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival is rated M (Mature 17+) and has implied sex scenes with frontal upper nudity of both men and women, plus backside nudity. These scenes break the guidelines of both YouTube and Twitch.

Can You Still Stream or Post a Video of the Game

Yes. Using some tools, you can play the game on the platforms.

Safe Streaming on Twitch

When using a streaming software, you can use their overlay feature to your benefit. The overlay feature lets you put a layer of an image or the like over your stream. With this, you can block out the scenes as needed, or switch to an entirely different layer while playing through that part. Below, you can find a tutorial all about overlays for the popular streaming software, OBS.

Mute your stream or the game during cutscenes with sexual content too, since extended audio can also get you banned. Label your stream as mature, and keep an eye on Twitch's announcements, because the platform may change how it treats the game.

Safe Video Posting (Youtube)

For a Let's Play or playthrough, either cut those scenes out or cover the nudity with a censorship effect. You may use an unrelated photo, black bars, or cut the video out while leaving the audio on.

If there is audio of the sex scene, it is recommended to mute over that part and replace it with speaking instead.

Above, you can see an example of censoring a scene using a white solid oval. You may also use a picture like the enlargened smiling emoji to cover up the area. This scene is not particularly graphic; it only serves as an example of what can be done.

You do have to be vigilant as Youtube might still assess that your video is too graphic for their platform. Do not forget to set your settings to age-restricted as well.
