Among the latest tweaks is the inclusion of an Adult-only <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/b\/news\/archive\/2010\/12\/03\/catherine-box-art-is-practically-nsfw.aspx\">NSFW games <\/a>curator section designed to house mature titles that are not intended for younger audiences.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While a plethora of these game titles are sexual in nature, not every single title included is sex-driven, including a few that are far-reaching into drugs and other more mature themes. That being said, it&#8217;s an adult section, so expect lots of hentai, tentacles, and the things that memes are made of.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The new section is broken down into many subcategories including Games With Adult DLC, Realistic 3D Models, H (Sex) Scene In-Game, Furry, Gay &#038; BL (Boys Love), Yuri &#038; GL (Girls Love), Series, Daily Promotion, and more. Games creatively called things like &#8220;Men Bang&#8221; and &#8220;Sexena&#8221; (I hope you can tell I&#8217;m kidding here, but all in good fun) are available to opt into, though clearly meant for those 18 and older.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s an interesting addition to the Valve experience, especially with the complicated relationship that platforms have with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/2019\/08\/16\/5-video-game-romances-that-made-us-swoon\">sexually-charged games<\/a>. From Twitch&#8217;s strict ban on games like these to avoid minors seeing them\u00a0to others being de-listed due to controversial natures, this mitigation seems like a suitable compromise for offering a wider birth of titles without stifling creative freedom.\u00a0 It also keeps\u00a0the general community at large safe from content that may be unwanted.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Personally, these types of games aren&#8217;t my particular forte&#8217;, but I would never judge. Especially with how much I talk about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/2020\/11\/07\/mass-effect-trilogy-remaster-finally-revealed-with-legendary-edition\">alien butts in Mass Effect<\/a>? Come on. That being said, a potential issue that could arise is the type of content shown given the shaky past Valve has had with what type of games get greenlit. Dubious consent is a concern as a form of entertainment, so it will be interesting to see how Valve continues to regulate what goes on within its storefront, or if the company will be taking a more hands-off approach.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This is not me condoning or condemning the new inclusion, fair citizens in the comment section, this is simply us sharing a new update to the storefront should this be of any interest and a small look at what it means for users.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>What do you think about the Adult-only NSFW game section recently added to Valve&#8217;s Steam storefront?
