I know it’s downvote central, but I’ve been on the “No Porn on Steam” train forever. Ever since the introduction to the service it has inundated so much of the “Top Selling” “New & Trending” etc. Steam is for games, porn is for porn. Super annoying to sift through it when I’m looking for a new game, and I have my age settings so I can see adult games like GTA/Dishonored, not “Super Hentai Bejeweled 3000”.

The former belong to the M rated category while the hypothetical latter would belong to the Adults Only category. As others have pointed out, you can hide adult games and still see other games with violence and mature themes. Steam classifies M-rated games and AO-rated games differently.

You can disable showing adult games from the store in the store preferences.

This setting is apparently disabled by default, so at some point you enabled it.
Yeah, I think he enabled it. It never showed porn games for me.

Certainly there should be better search tools and personal curation on Steam. If you don’t want to see it you should be able to easily filter it.
steam is for games… no, it isn’t really. steam has been distributing non game software for ages.
porn games are games so even if steam is for games it should have porn games.
i don’t care for porn games but I’ve filtered them out so who cares what others do with their time
Or its sequel, Futanari Tentacle Schoolgirl 4000
“I’ll know it when I see it” has gotta be the most vibes way to tell people they’re degenerates.
It’s also the US legal standard for obscenity laws, unfortunately.
