    Your friend is being inconsiderate. It’s proper netiquette go invisible before playing your hentai games.

      This is not a thing I’ve ever heard in my lifetime online.

      That said; it is wiser to go invisible. I wouldn’t call it inconsiderate unless/until you’ve discussed that with your friend.

      I guess it just depends on the relation between friends as to whether you should care or not if you’re seen playing a Hentai Game.

      For some people; especially people who might be public figures; yes, that would be massively questionable. For other people who only ever steam friend their buddies who also share similar game interests and tastes…it might not be such a huge deal.

      That said it probably is a conversation one might have with that friend; especially if it bothers you.

      However, I do think there are certain times I believe that Steam should just, by default, not share when you are playing certain titles with friends.

        I think on steam, like most social media, people have more friends than close buddies that are cool with it. So…

        I mean, I know they do that stuff. I, however, do not need to know when they do it or what’s facilitating it.

          Maybe that’s something you should remind your friend that steam does…this meme would help with that…

      Is ‘Rule 111’ taken yet? I move that we enshrine, “Setting status to invisible before engaging in naughty things” as Internet rule 111

      Your friends can still see you bought it/own it in the first place, unless you have that set to private, in which case you can’t look up your own CSGO/CS2 stats etc. The privacy settings are unfortunately not very flexible.

      Is the good gameplay the reason you’re there? Same energy as the “watch it for the plot” mfs

        HuniePop is extremely popular, even with straight women. I get what you’re saying that people should admit being horny but also sometimes it is actually the game play.

        For the record I loved HuniePop. But the gameplay wasn’t enough to get me through HuniePop 2.

          The double date stuff made it much more difficult and complex. The boss was really hard too.

            I didn’t get to the boss. When the game started giving me debuffs for talking to these women (which is like, half the point of the game) I noped out. How am I supposed to answer their questions for maximum points to prove I like them if talking to them makes the game more difficult? Look up a walkthrough? If I wanted to look up gameplay somebody else did, I may as well watch someone else play it, and if I’m doing that then why bother playing at all?

            Fuck that. Bring back the ridiculous “Hey, just curious, what did I tell you my cup size was four days ago?” quizzing! That’s such a hallmark of these games! Getting to know her isn’t supposed to make it more difficult to get in her pants!

            I think the writer of the game didn’t realize that a lot of the players were women, too, because some of those debuffs were fucking idiotic. The porn star gets a “Busted Vag” debuff? What kind of unrealistic incel garbage is that? That is not how women work.

            That one wasn’t what made me quit playing but it’s the one I remember most. If I was going to punish the player for talking to a girl (big NO on that) I would at least choose better debuffs (you have the same name as my dead father, xXPussySlayerXx, so I get sad when I say your name - boom! Don’t Say My Name debuff).

    Why can’t steam just allow some games you flag to not announce themselves?

      People have been asking for ten years. I don’t know why they refuse to let you customize privacy.

        I’m almost positive they do and I’ve done it myself?

        Edit: lol -9 for this, and I double checked and you absolutely can hide your game activity in privacy settings. This place really is no different from reddit.

          If you read the above comments, we’re talking about blocking specific games. Your low score is not hivemind, you just missed the context of the thread .

          Steam is all or nothing, and if you block everything, some games won’t allow you to invite friends or join games, and it’s not just a switch to flip to turn back on for multiplayer. You have to go through several menus to change your settings. We’ve been asking for the ability to block specific games or just turn off participation in the feed for ages.

          Also unlike Reddit, your points aren’t tracked and mean nothing here ,so there’s no point in worrying about downvotes.

      Just go offline. Or have an alt account for your horny games.

    I mean. Steam accounts are basically free. Just have a hentai alt account. Problem solved. Not that I would do that as I am a man of culture and refinement.

      It also makes life easier for everyone if you ever decide to share the account. Or if you intend to leave the acc to someone in case you kick the bucket.

        Wait, you think that your friends don’t ALSO want to play your hentai games? That’s fair if true, but I want to give mine the opportunity at least.

    Always surprised when people leave steam running in the background to begin with, and then that people want to know when someone is playing something. I turn all that shit off. I don’t care or want to see pop ups of all my friends playing a game. Any game. Pop up notifications are not needed.

      You have to enable the adult only games in your settings menu, they don’t show up by default.
