Yes but do you think all parents use these features, I highly doubt anyone restricts them, I understand that is on them but that still doesn't make it okay

The parents need to DISABLE the filters automatically first. These filters are turned on by default . Adult content is disabled by default, the feature to hide them is turned on by default . Unless a person takes the necessary steps to disable the adult content filters, the games in question will NOT show up.

The content showed up despite the filters you are wrong.

No. Unless you see explicit content where is none. A bared midriff is NOT pornographic content. A swimsuit-clad figure is NOT pornographic content. Unless there is imagery of full frontal nudity and/or coitus, it is NOT pornographic content. Show me ONE example of a game which has the "This game is marked as adult only..." banner that bypasses the filter.

Internet is literally filled with porn and every parent should be aware of that. Steam gives you tools to make sure your children won't get in contact with something you don't want them to. If you don't use them it's on you, not on platform.

We are arguing this issue here with the very people that create and want the problem.

I see no problem. There is nothing problematic about games with sexual content.

Not only that most advancements in early internet technology or even non internet happened because the porn industry had to deal with things others at that time had not need to deal with or even thought of.

They were the first at streaming services you can thank netflix to them.They were there before e-commerce shops like Paypal E-Bay which looked at the porn industry and went hmm we can create a mainstream business out of this.

Standardized subtitles on videos is something that got pushed and popularized by the porn industry as well and there is a lot more like they never gave up on VR were most businesses did. Not to mention cloud storage advancements because out of every possible type of content video media requires some of the most demanding storage space.

So if you want to condemn the porn industry in any way understand you are most likely using something in your life that would not have been there in the same manner without them. Which is most cases with things people do not like from some kind of group. History is full of them and a lot are far more controversial than some naked entertainment I can assure you.

Now should erotic content be censored for minors of course and it is. Not many developers even dare to mislabel there content on that kind of content because Steam has to take action otherwise and it is not pretty. There are only a few instances that Steam would ever ban a developer outright and mislabeling content on purpose is one of those including opening them up for severe lawsuits from others.


Why is that content here at all? Well sex sells and general entertainment sells combine the two and you have a pretty good business model to benefit from. And if your not doing it as a business that sells entertainment someone else will and now your in a worst spot altogether. because of your morale code. Money talks for most businesses and Steam is no different. They resisted it for years they gave up and I doubt they ever regretted it.


Do not like it well than vote with your wallet that is the power you have. Or somehow get the majority of the world to view it as you do. But if you ever seen the statistics a certain website published during the COVID outbreak you would quickly realize your in a minority by a landslide.

Not really any tools, you could have all the filters on and it still comes up, steam doesn't do enough moderation, plus as a parent you can't spy on your child every day

I work as a teacher. I've overheard teenagers at school talk about pretty raunchy stuff, so I confronted them on where they heard such words. Not one of them mentioned Steam. It was mostly pornographic sites. Most of them don't even know Steam sells AO games. People aren't looking for what they don't know exists. And why look on Steam when they can find raunchy content elsewhere easier?

Real, but i feel like it's a gateway since it's a gaming platform , at least for kids to delve into such things, you for example can't block adult/lewd profile pictures and steam even allowed animated ones to exist from porn games

These profile pictures are suggestive at most, otherwise they would not be available. Steam is definitely not a gateway into explicit content, as that content is hidden better than you might think. Even if games from which these avatars have explicit adult patches, these patches are either hidden by the filters or not even on Steam itself but have to be obtained on the developers' own site. That's too many hoops to jump for the modern "kid". And most of them don't even know the hoops exist. Most of them reach only for low-hanging fruit. Modern teens in my country don't even know how to save a document in MS-Word, do you think they possess the ability to fiddle around with Steam's filters? If something as clicking "File" and "Save as" is enough to faze them, how do you imagine them taking all the steps needed to unlock adult content?

Many of them don't even open Options menus in video games. That should tell you a lot about what the odds are for them to find how to disable the filters on their own.

The way op worded his title makes it sound like he is going to explain why.

You feel that, so no evidence, no proof, no actual reasoning

But because one persons 'feels' something thousands have to suffer restrictions, on a feeling

Steam have content, you have to allow yourself to see it, it's like walking into a strip club and being offended that there's topless dancers....

You have hentai/loli imagery all over your profile. I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.
