An option to hide NSFW items in the steam points shop

[SaaDN1]

Every once in a while I go to the points shop to see what's new and each time I find new hentai items, again and again, and now 50% or more of the points shop is just hentai backgrounds and avatars, so I have suggested to the steam support to add this option or to apply it from the regular steam store since it is an option there.

Oh please, I don't need you or your "like-minded fellows" to force your flawed views on us. Just agree to disagree and move on, I'm tired of people like you.

Complain to the mod that merged/moved your thread to the right sub forum if you don’t agree with what they did, I had nothing to do with that.

I don't care about the merging, more the judging.

I looked at the point shop and besides the butt animation, there isn't anything on there that isn't what you'd already see at the beach? Dunno what people are complaining about...

in fact beaches tend to be way skimpier than any of the pointshop stuff. I've even seen people (even yes, guys) wearing thongs on california beaches that were actually rather skimpier and "naughtier" than the butt animation. Almost naked pretty much, and these are california PUBLIC and FAMILY beaches visited by multiple millions every year (even during covid). Where is all this on the steam point shop? I'm getting sad by the overhype in this thread. I dont see any of this awesome stuff on the steam point store :(

Kinda disappointed actually. This thread overhyped the pointshop skimpy stuff :(

Now I'm extremely disappointed. I thought this was going to be "worse" than going to the beach. But this is super tame stuff in comparison. This thread is like overhyping a triple A game and now just sad :(

No items currently are NSFW, but some can be said to be borderline. There should be an option that users to check off on an item they wish to not see tho and keep it hidden unless they want to show it again.

There should be an option to filter items from certain games, I'm sick of having to wade through a sea of cat girls and DOTA avatars every damn time I check out the points shop

I agree with both of these, though they provide different implementations.

We can block games, genres, & even specific developers on the store, so why can't we do this with the content from those same games in the Points Shop?
(or even with a different set of games & items)

Maybe I am mistaken, but don’t you need to own some games to enable “special” avatars in the points shop? So only owners of “NSFW” games would have access to them.

The above suggestion is a good idea, let the player flag a genre/game style so related items do not show up in the points shop, even if they are family friendly.

I have never seen any indication for anything like that before, where did you get that from?

You do realize there are different cultures that aren't ok with nudity on the beach or anywhere else right?

Again all I and my like-minded fellow are asking is an option, which won't affect anyone else who sees nothing wrong with it.

Actually, that is kind of the problem. Some cultures may not even want to allow female avatars with out a mask on, so should they also be filtered as NSFW?

Nothing I can see in the shop would be considered NSFW and Valve's own policy even states that such material shouldn't be up in the point shop.

A line has to be drawn somewhere as to what is considered NSFW. Valve has drawn that line. Not everyone's opinions can be accounted for.

Are these cultures coming here and asking for this though? so far I have seen quite a few people agree with me on this, but how many people will agree with what you said?

Agreed, though if a lot of people are asking for something, maybe it should be taken into consideration.

I have see people requesting removal of games and avatars, simply due to their own opinion, even culturally, yes.

And at the same point, many who posted in this thread have also said how none of it is NSFW.

A lot? Steam has over 24 million users on, at peek times. How does a few become "a lot"?

And as I said, where do we draw the line? By what you think is NSFW? Do we go by the strictest definition, as defined by a religion or culture?

If we assume NSFW is a number and the number currently is 1, you want to number moved to 2, but another wants it moved to 3, who's opinion do we go by? If someone come by and wants it moved to 4, do we accommodate them as well?

We are, after all, talking about something that is purely subjective.

Steam has a NSFW option. So why does the Point shop have one? Just add a filter for certain games. https://store.steampowered.com/points/shop/reward/112664 <--- this one is borderline so... would be nice to not see that ♥♥♥♥.

Since there's no NSFW items in the Points Shop it's only logical that there's no filter to filter something that doesn't exist in the first place. The Store on the other hand has games that range from showing a bit of skin to being hardcore porn. Different products, different filters.

As to filtering specific games: there's a filter already. Select backgrounds for example and the filter is available at the upper bar of the UI. You can search for a specific game and so on.

Point still remains, you can block by title, publisher, & genre on the actual store; so, why not implement the same feature in the Points Shop?

Who cares what someone's reason is for wanting to not see a specific item; the content doesn't have to be taken down or censored on the platform, it can just adhere to being filtered by user preferences.

This would increase the likelihood that users will engage favorably with the platform by increasing customer quality of experience & satisfaction.


It's, also, pretty funny to see some users who seemingly are rejecting the idea of blocking things via user preferences, when they're currently using pre-existing user-preference features to block other things, themselves.

You are aware that nothing in the world on the Point shop can be considered nudity, right?
So, your statement is null and void on it's own front by using a nonsensical example.

There is nothing NSFW on the point shop. IT cannot be debated that there are.

Unless someone shows all that stuff to the Amish, and they agree. :P

Yes, steam has 24 million users on it, and only like what 25 of them are here? so if we say 7 people agreed with the post and 18 didn't that's still 28% of people wanting this option (that again, will have 0 effect on other users who didn't agree).

Also yes, things like this are subjective for you, but for me I'm a Muslim so they're objective but I'm not going to preach or shove my religion down your throats, and instead simply ask for an option that AGAIN doesn't affect other users.

This right here, is the correct answer.
