Porn games on Steam and itch are tacky af but they don’t push them on me and I sort of just ignore them. That being said they should probably sell them on diffe

  > That being said they should probably sell them on different website. Why? (Genuinely) Why are filters not sufficient? If I enjoy adult games and non-adult games, why should I have to manage two storefronts?

    Because filters do not work well at all and because these platforms want to make parents feel like it is ok for kids to be on them. Imagine if youtube had an “onlyfans” creator filter. That would never work. The reality is you are not the only customer or market. While you may find it to work well enough for you, myself along with many others do not.

      They absolutely work. I'm a parent, my kid plays games. I have yet to have any concerning close calls with NSFW content. People who make adult games (by and large) don't want kids to play their games. If the platform doesn't want kids to see them, and the creators don't want kids to see them, it's pretty easy for kids to not see them. If creators, platforms, and users all say, I would prefer to not see the content, it's pretty easy to make that happen.

  Itch has been "that different website" for pretty much all its existence. If itch isn't safe, I don't know who is. Epic doesn't really allow any of that, and GOG is still pretty picky on any submission. DLSite is another good site but that was hit last year by this.
