Is there a way to ban porn games from view?

[THE WARDEN]

I do discovery queues and new/trending queues daily and all too often I get 'recommended' these outright porn games. I don't own such games so I don't even know why they keep pushing them onto me as recommended. I know I can switch adult games off, however I feel that if I switch on an adult filter, I will miss out on other games that aren't actually porn and may just have adult themes within them (ie witcher). Is there a way I can block just these porn games? Cause I am tired of seeing them, i'm surprised there is so many, who even plays these things

YOU told Steam to show you "porn" games. That setting is off by default.

Disable "Adult Only Sexual Content". That will disable pure porn games from being shown to you, as demonstrated by the examles.

The Witcher series is categorized in the Nudity or Sexual content category.

Not really no, it asked if i wanted to disable an adult filter once. Never knew that meant straight up porn. These games dont exist on consoles which is how i grew up. Its reasonable of me to not assume such games even exist

Adult Only Sexual Content is opt-in by default for all accounts. So you must have at some point enabled that category.

Adult Only Sexual Content is OFF by default and if you are seeing said content it is because YOU enabled it.

Stating "fact" is adding to the discussion.

A mate of mine sent me the "sex with Hitler" store page and I saw porn games in my que since. So you can opt in accidentally/.

A mate of mine sent me the "sex with Hitler" store page and I saw porn games in my que since. So you can opt in accidentally apparently by just looking at a page. Don't be an unhelpful clown.

Thread is fromDec 4, 2022.

Nx Machina is correct though, you have to opt-in. There is no automatic apt-in. In order to view the store page of that game, you had to already have had it enabled, otherwise it wouldn't even let you view it.
