This is a great feature I wish we had earlier.

Wouldn't mind having it hidden in my own library. Plenty of games I'd rather not know existed. (Not counting removing then from my library, I bought them, maybe someone will want to play them some day)

You can already hide them in your library, it's in the right click menu, you can find them by searching for the title, or just typing the first letter of any game title and scrolling all the way down and opening your whole hidden folder. I wish they'd add slightly more features to the library sorting though. Folders would be nice.

Now I can finally hide all of those hours I spent playing Farming Simulator! Every 100 hours crossed just makes the guilty pleasure feel more guilty when I admit it.

I just have a second username with no friends on it for my Being a DIK type games.

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

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

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] 5 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] 4 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

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.

Now if they could also let me use my own api key to access my own profile without having to make it public. Or maybe just a sane Openid Connect implementation that actually does anything.

I don't know, and valve is lying if they say they do.

There are not naked ladies in my games

Finally I can play Milf Story

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

If you have some kind of niche fetish, Valve is the last company you should expect to keep it private.

Too late now 🤷🏻‍♂️
