So many p*orn games on Steam..

[Jackhammer (Wholf)]

I think i made a thread before about this but i'm not entirely sure.
I'm just wondering, why are there so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ much p*rn games on Steam?
Like litterly, hardcore, bdsm and other categories.
All i see is this and yes, i'm aware of the option that i can toggle it off but still.
There are kids on this game? And most of these games do not give a warning.

Yea, but not really a 'clear' answer has been given and it's kinda weird that most of these released games do not give a warning.

Those games are allowed on Steam as long as they aren't illegal or trolling, but IIRC they are supposed to be age-gated.

Yea.

In short: Yes some games are not properly flagged as porn and will show up no matter what your settings are. There is NOTHING you can do right now to change that unless you want to go and hit ignore on every one of those games manualy which defeats the point.

You can use the report system on the storepage.

[Waldherz]

Which defeats the point of not wanting to see those games in the first place.

[Cathulhu]

I don't understand, if a game is not properly categorized, why is it a bad thing to report it for that?
Addtionally, adult only games are a category which is disabled by default. The user MUST activate it before it is possible to see those games.
Without an account you can not see them either.

If you try, you get this:
"An error was encountered while processing your request:

You must login to see this content."

I would agree if it was only a few of those games.
But today I got a few recommendations for some porn VR games because people on my friendslist own those. I have all the filters for thos egames turned on and yet I still see them on the front store page.
No. Matter. What. Ya. Do.
e.g. a game called VR Paradise shows up right now in the tab of games that your firends play on the front store page. And that looks straight up like a porn game to me.


Edit: With "your friends" I was refering to what the tab is called. Which means I was talking about my steam "friends", not yours.

So you're saying you do not have Adult Only Sexual Content enabled and you're still seeing such games? Give an example of such a game you're seeing.

[Waldherz]

I just gave an example...
And yes, I enabled all those filters so I dont see these things because I sometimes have steam open at my workplace and due to our policies we cant have any of these things (they are also annoying).

If you enabled it, you actually turned showing them ON. There should be no tick in the box if you don't want too see them.

[Waldherz]

Thats why I was specific with my wording saying that I used filters to block this content.

By filters do you mean tags? Because Store preferences by default are off, you need to turn them on. You're saying you turned them on so that sounds like you actually enabled seeing them.

If you click your account name in the right upper corner of the client, choose Store Preferences, do you or do you not have the boxes ticked for various Mature content settings?

[Waldherz]

I do not have the boxes ticked for porn games.
