Well, it appears the damage is done based on those comments... But if you want you can set your profile to private...

Some people prefer to just show it off, I got a buddy on my steam friends list who I know irl that has a collection that puts yours to shame, and he keeps everything on public, not caring what anyone thinks.

If they judge you, maybe they shouldn't be on your friends list...

Use profile privacy settings to hide game data. Need to hide it all as you can't just hide select titles. Nothing you can do about those that have already seen and/or commented on them though

If you want to buy more maybe do so on a second account.

Don't buy games you're embarrassed to show your friends or get better friends, problem solved.

So? If they make fun of you they aren't friends worth having.

Buy them elsewhere and only activate them on Steam is another option.

- Buy a bunch of "regular" games.

- Buy only a few of the games you want to hide.

- Make sure the games you are trying to hide are in around the middle or bottom of the list - i.e. not the last ones you bought, as these are the games that will have their whole avatar image displayed at the top of the Activity feed.

- Pray that people will not notice the hidden games in the list.

Rinse and repeat.

Done this multiple times. Set your profile as private during checkout. It won't post in activity feed what you bought. Then you can set back your profile status whatever it was before that.

Are we talking titty games here (as I can't view the link)?

If so, wear them as a badge of pride. You like them so who gives a ♥♥♥♥ what others think? If they're truly your friends then they should appreciate this. Otherwise, well they ain't much as friends are they?

I defo would wear them as a badge of pride because I'd soon ershow off the fact I'm a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ loony as that's fabulous and shows you have a sense of humour.

But yeah you can private your profile if you really wish.

I wouldn't do this though as you should learn to be proud about what you like.

Weird stuff in general, like "Hentai Nazi Hitler is back" and titles like that. I probably couldn't even buy them if I wanted to, with Steam doing regional censoring and stuff.

Regardless, sometimes people are just weird. You can play Counterstrike, Call of Duty and other military stuff, but the second some skin shows they are all "oh no, everyone get away, sound the alarm, do something!"

They aren't true friends if you feel the need to hide your games from them

Yeah that's what I find idfficult to comprehend.

It's not so much the content itself. I mean if it's sold here, then obviously it's OK.

It's more the fact they enjoy something, but don't want to admit it to others yet is a really benign thing.

That is struly odd. I get it if they have some stupid ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ parents or something, but as I said if you are worried about what your friends think, then maybe kleep your games visible but get better friends?

Even if you hide it from your friends, God sees them. And he sees what you’re doing with them. Now I’m no prophet, but I’m pretty sure he’s disgusted.

Might be best not to buy porn games if you’re embarrassed about them.

That depends on whether it's actually sold elsewhere.

If that actually works, then it's probably the easiest way.

I'd have tried gifting it from another account.

Friends won't shame you for playing this stuff. It works the other way round, people shaming you for your tastes aren't your friends. They aren't even decent human beings in the first place, so feel free to cut them out of your life.
