Can the porn games get their own *separate* section?

[Shoobflops]

Especially the "lolicon" ones. I think they should be launched into the sun purely on principal. But every time I go on to hunt for a new game to play there they are.

It would probably help if steam had actual filtering but if that hasn't happened yet I highly doubt it will.

Also there are literally thousands of websites you can go to watch porn instead of burdening steam to sell your porn game for 50 cents because its honestly not worth buying when there are literally thousands of wbsites you can go to watch porn instead of burdening steam to sell your porn game for 50 cents.

Maybe I just hate lolicon in general but this seems dumb on many levels. Deviantart and Newgrounds is over there.

Discuss.

Porn games are already hidden by default. You cant even see them in the store unless you tick the "adult sexual content" option in your account preferences.

The games you still see are all without real nudity or sex and thus completely fine on the normal store.

Also there are no "Lolicon" games on Steam, Valve actively removes games with sexual content featuring underage characters.

Nothing to discuss.

^This. Enough said, and basically see no point to carry on with this discussion IMHO. OP If you have a problem with adult content, or etc, filter the tags, uncheck the adult content search you most likely went out of you way to turn on in your account preferences, and click ignore games you don't want to see, and that's about it.

Don't lock off my thread scrub captain get a mod to do that if it doesn't happen in the next hour.

[DarkStarKnight]

What?

I think it's just another case of someone not understanding "porn".

ESRB has content descriptors such as "partial nudity" and "suggestive themes", which are generally applied to games containing "fanservice". The fact that such games can still get a "T" (teen) rating already shows that it just isn't "porn" in any way, shape or form.

Other rating systems probably do similar things; I'm just generally more aware of ESRB ratings since they often show up in trailers.

Most of the "anime" porn games on steam are pedo bait change my mind. Bonus points if a mod manages to do so.

Not sure where you are searching your games, but they aren't coming up in my searches in the Steam store.

How do you look for your games?

Why would anyone want to change your mind? You are objectively wrong so there is no point.
The games do not conflict with any laws or Steam would not sell them.
What you personally think of them is irrelevant.

Its like if i wrote " i think first person shooters will attract mass shooters. Proof me wrong!".
You are free to "think" whatever you want. Does not make your view more valid.

Aside from picking a genre and digging through? Discovery qeue. Don't tell me to filter because I've tried that and there is a limit. Who knew there was so much junk out there.

https://store.steampowered.com/explore/ Custom your preferences for your discovery queue, you can put more than 10 tags, put in the words they're tag for, and you be filtering them out in no time.

I use the DQ as well, a couple of curators and mostly the "More like this" from games I own or have on the wishlists. Works pretty well. And I like to look at recommended stuff on the store page, which often is linked to my Steam friends. Which I don't have that many, but have similar tastes in games.

Never go digging through a genre, you'll encounter more trash than on a major garbage dump.

Yeah its already full. I said so in the post you quoted.

They are hidden by default. Personally if you want to make such a fuzz about these games, then we should hide violent games and anime as well (since they are just as problematic in most cases)

Personally I am not much up for the censoring of stuff. I guess we could make two seperate platforms, a +18 and the +13. Then restrict the +13 to not have access to any of the +18 mature games. (but that would just make the kids pick +18) but then atleast Valve would stop having all these people complain

Valve Corporation is unable to do a good system/header changes for different categorys since nearly 2 decades. No matter which topic. So, the easy answer is "no" to the main question.

Valve Corporation is.... as already written not able to integrate a reasonable age system. So again... "no". 2 seperated platforms would be a solution too. But as shown in the past with Sekai Project, Mangagamer and some other greedy companys this means, we have to pay twice with bad luck. Only in theory a good idea.

And for you @Magic Salad Cat or however your nickname will be in future and as for every one else with ridiculous medieval views, don't bother other people with your own messed ideologys. It's just annoying and boring, especially when other people are suffering because of your crap because some prude american quaker doesn't like certain things.

Noone is forced to click, see or use anything... Not here on this platform and also not somewhere else...

Discuss? No, should be instantly locked. This topic is always a waste of time. Or ask Valve to make an "Anti-Porn" forum category or a "funny colorful and magic unicorn" category... of course separated according to gender and skin colour, to make everything right for every fool...

Unnecessary first world problems...

To be honest porn games shouldn't be on steam at all - there's other platforms for that. I guess this is why people are leaving steam for Epic Games, it seems more mature over there.
