I don’t understand how after all these years Steam doesn’t have more granular control over what games / activity you show to the world. Why can I just hide some games?
How is this so hard for a small indie company?
I prefer it this way. Having to hide all games provides a chance for introspection about the finite amount of time we get in our lives and wether or not tentacle Anime kitten girls are the company in which we want to spend it
Steam recently updated to make it way easier to switch between accounts. It used to be you had to authenticate every time, which was a pain with Steam Guard. Now there’s a Change Account function which won’t invalidate your authentication token though it does seem to sign you out until you switch back.
I use that to ensure I’m not advertising certain games to the world.
Valve is not indie ?! Or do you mean the gamestudios behind those games?
So or so: Just play NSFW Games over at itch.io
ಠ_ಠ this is the 5th time today you’ve played “Femboy Milking Simulator”
And thats why it is invisible to my friends what i am playing. Not that i would play any hentai games of course.

I prefer to hide playtime and set myself to Invisible when playing lewd stuff so friends aren’t notified. That way people can still see my library and games in common as well as Now Playing status while I’m Online. The only issue is that these games are still visible if someone searches my library, but I don’t really care about that, I’m pretty vanilla.
Considering Steam has so many NSFW games, it would be great to have a proper “hidden/invisible” category that keeps ownership and all info about these games private while leaving other game info public. Perhaps also an optional PIN to access them so you can share your PC with friends and family without them seeing your lewd stuff. The current “Hidden” category isn’t sufficient.
How does it compare to the first one? I hear they made HP2 harder for some reason
You misunderstand. This feature is there so that you have the opportunity to join them.
What are these “friends” I keep reading about?
