    I can’t think of a reason why I would want to hide a game. What am I missing?

          More likely a proud deviant first and foremost with like a 1 level dip into cinnamon role to get the “Parental Respect” feat. It’s Pretty busted in the middle levels when you need a loan to put a down payment on a castle.

        When did cinnamon roll come to mean naive?

      They have very explicit sexually themed video games. And my assumption is that this feature will allow you or I to continue to hide our fetishes from our friends and families.

        I didn’t know this. I guess to me, playing a game is not the same activity as enjoying porn. But now I know. Thanks.

          For some people, it’s actually better. Even if the graphics, animations and such aren’t nearly as good as recorded, animated or drawn pornography. There’s something about the interactivity that’s more interesting than passive consumption. Even with porn.

          Most of these can barely be qualified as games. They’re literally just interactive porn, essentially.

            Not the good ones! I mean, I know nothing about this subject, any allegations to the contrary are lies.

      A few years ago I bought a Humble Bundle with a bunch of visual novels because people on Reddit were raving about the game Root Double. However, the bundle also came with a few adult games. I’d like to not have friends and coworkers ask why there’s a loli catgirl game in my library.

        As long as it has 0 hours played, youre in the clear for an excuse…

        If you launch it however…

          Fortunately I’ve never launched it.

          Unfortunately, I’ve never launched the game I bought the bundle for either. Like 90% of my Steam library it vanished into the Backlogs, never to be seen again.

      Steam is full of anime porn games.

      For a long time there wasn’t even a way to filter them meaningfully, as porn and gore were in the same category. So you either had the default filter and couldn’t see some of the most violent games, or you turned the filter off and every listing turned into 90% porn games. I think they realized that and now have separate categories for “adult because gory” and “tits”.

      Hentai or porn games.

      No one needs to know I’m playing HunnyPop BeastLover 3

        Yikes. BeastLover 2 was peak lore. Story really went downhill with 3. Id be embarrassed too.

      let’s just say that steam has a section of games distinctly not aimed at children.

      If you know a friend would be offended/make fun/whatever because they see a game in your library.

      Yes, its that persons problem, but sometimes putting up with them is a worse alternative than just being able to hide a game from them.

      I haven’t seen anyone else mention the reason why I actually want this feature.

      I want to be able to hide the non-games/utilities so that it doesn’t say I’m constantly playing things like blender, fpsvr, etc.

      My fiancé download a humble bundle of cute and cozy games on my account instead of making her own. It’s humiliating to have cat cafe and witchy kitchen games on there next to Doom.

        It’s humiliating that you think that.

        The Doom Guy went to war with the forces of hell over the death of his pet rabbit. He was willing to let it be after escaping in Ep3 but he went scorched fucking earth after they killed his Daisy.

        And, regardless of how you reconcile the timelines, The Doom Slayer is actively hallucinating his pet rabbit because he still cannot get over her loss.

        So yeah. That sounds like a you problem. Because even the most hardcore ultraviolent mass murderer of all FPS protagonists cherishes the love of a cute little bunny rabbit.
