“NSFW” is a terrible label and people should stop using it.
Nothing new; they just renamed “unavailable in Germany” to “sexual content”.
Finally! It’s much easier to find what you’re looking for when the description actually, you know, describes.
Now, if they would just narrow down the type of sexual content and gore.
Next step: Tags by kink
Then tag every fighting game with sadomasochism
Automatic f-list sync when?
They also added a “capybara” tag. Exactly one game in it.
They’re insidious, a warning is necessary.
so far
I’m going to develop a new games called Capybara Idol Group Manager Simulator, where you have to schedule shows for Capybaras with big personalities.
I’ll be waiting, let me know when I can wishlist it
…in maid uniforms?
Depending on the situation yes, but this is still very much a simulator so the capybaras will complain quite a bit via email and you’ll have to fill out form 89.33b Non-cleaning Maid Clearance (non-military).
are the military maid clearance forms dlc?
As I don’t like DLC this will be released in an update called WERE BEING INVADED BUT LETS DEFEND OUR CAPYBARA IDOLS.
i was assuming they would turn into like magicapy girls and face the challenge themselves. that or mechs.
I thought there’d be way more games with Capybaras.
I appreciate that as what’s currently tagged as Not Safe For Work (in many sources including Steam) are actually fine for work and adults, it’s immature minds (usually those under 16) and people under the influence of conservative values that it’s not safe for
And addicts I suppose
Omg did they just use the c bomb in that game? They did! I am going to complain!
Meanwhile at work - hey jack, some cunts on the phone for you!
That’s a pretty big change…
NSFW is useless for video games anyways.
But when it was tied to “gore”, if you tried to hide shitty horny games, you ended up hiding the vast majority of games too.
“Sexual content” still isn’t perfect tho, one “hot coffee” scene would likely trigger it like a game whose entire point is sus looking anime characters.
It wouldn’t be bad if there wasn’t so many, but it just clogs up the store with slop because dumb kids pay the $5-20 so the store pushes them. If someone breaks down and buys one, they’re prob very likely to keep buying them. So the algo (blindly) pushes them on everyone.
They need to just admit that a significant number of games on steam only exist as porn. And then they’d be able to actually separate them. But that’s a can of worms they’ll want to ignore as long as possible.
Steam did change their general “mature content” filtering recently-ish I think. That’s independent of tags.
In your account settings you can go to your Store preferences and enable or disable if you want “mature content”, violence and gore, “some nudity”, and possibly others, along with some example games for those categories.
Since I’m from Germany it stops at “some nudity”, since more explicit stuff is blocked here anyway, but if you’re from a more developed country you should get one or two more options.
That way you shouldn’t need to rely on tags to filter out all the porn games (if that’s what you want).
Who the fuck is playing Steam games at work?
Well my boss told me to work hard. 🍆
One turn of Civ in between tickets is healthy for you
Hell. reverse the order, a ticket between turns, and you’ll be there forever. Just one more turn.
Fair point on all the comments. I guess I was thinking of a cubical office.
I just can’t imagine anyone playing potentially NSFW games for the first time in an office environment. Then again I guess that may be why they are revamping the system.
Bongo Cat keeps me motivated and productive, damnit!
People with boring jobs with a lot of down time?
