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

You're either a total cinnamon roll or a proud deviant.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe they're a Cinnamon Deviant cross class build.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

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?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Just means innocent/sweet, so sorta means naive I guess?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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.

cinnamon roll confirmed

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.

And VR!

According to a friend.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

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

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".

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Think visual novels but the visuals are maybe something you wouldn't want your parents to see, unless they're freak nasty.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hentai or porn games.

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

There's a lot of AO games that seem interesting.

But can't buy.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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.
