Lately, Dlsite has gone through a serie of change.
They crack down on AI generated work, putting them down in a specific "AI work" sub tab (like doujinshi or pro game), except, the AI tab is clearly cut from the rest of Dlsite, because entering a work name or id in the search gave you an answer for all the tab, but not the AI tab, you need to serach for AI work in the AI tab or it won't show.
Well, it's not like it was coming with all the trash work made with AI, but It's hard for the few serious dev for lacked drawing skill and made food game filled with AI... (yeah, there very few of them).
Another change is the English tag change under pressure from the paiement companies (see https://ulmf.org/threads/dlsite-changed-some-of-their-tags.16607/ ).
But lastly, they also (officially temporary) suspended bank card paiement. While there is option to get around (mostly, buying point through reseller - Dlsite even brought up tutorial about how to do this), the bank card ban is also now touching Ci-en. Yep guy. Go Go Go ! check your support plan.
I don't know about Ci-En, but Dlsite had commented about how 1/3 + if their sales where coming from westerner lately... which would be a big loss if they end up unable to sell there anymore.
Just hope they'll find an answer soon... Because I don't see them making a special westerner selling site (not after merging EN dlsite and JP Dlsite and how Jhoren fare...)
