Ability to filter adult content.
Added by
Starkrun An option inside of our settings that allows us to filter out adult content. So we won't see it on the main site or while shopping. Most stores already have this feature and it's one GOG.com is missing. The catalog has many 18+ games in it now, and this feature is a needed addition moving forward for GOG.com.
Yankes At least add option to predefine tags you want remove from search, we can define it manually, only change it will be defined in user options and this list will always appended to each search.
2Plus2 My suggestion to GOG is that they should remove these games entirely from their site. Other digital storefronts should do the same. It's trash society can do without.
Doorhandle12 Please add the adult content filter. I don't want my nephew to be exposed to this stuff when we're checking out games to buy.
xela1507 Look this is actually fundemental for this store to keep running, All other major stores have this option, heck most computers have a perental control option. Legitlation may hit GOG hard if this is not taken care of
tinyhaggis My children received your porn game marketing email today. I am disappointed and disgusted with this site, since GOG just doesn't care who it sends this crap to! Not only that, sending mail like this to minors is illegal in most civilised countries including the UK.
Komakogog wth why is this still not fixed?
ExoTechly please add
shovas Steam can do this, why can't GOG?
OneEyedOstrich This NEEDS to be an opt-in feature for VERIFIED adults for your account as a whole. As it stands, the newsletter actively pushes adult content to accounts with no age entered, meaning it can easily be pushed onto children.
This is a feature that EVERY OTHER storefront has figured out, why not GOG? This is ridiculous!!
Outlandish_Jones Please, this is a great platform for DRM free games. I would love to keep on using it, but the inability to filter out adult content is very disappointing and hinders my ability to continue to support your business.
Kmileq265 Yeah, and for Dreamlist too
zicraftian Please add this GOG, I don't want to see these games
rw9hkj8uu What's most frustrating is this is very easy to implement in light of GOG always hiding games for the reasons of geoblock or other silly reasons and that it does have tags for that. The only thing is this is not default. Like just making the checkmark default to hide them on search and don't pop that up on the main page, it's not asking much.
Emerald_Child I want children to be able to select games they want for purchase without seeing any of the smutty games. It's also nice for adults who don't need smutty games because they have a real sex life.
CrazyEyEz24 I agree.. i buy games a lot on GOG just to hold my collection at a hand distance so i can play one whenever i want without having to find my actual physical discs, however finding games can sometimes be a pain in the ..rear...
i would like to be able to filter & lock my game collection of games i have bought.. this way i can set my bought games to 'child friendly' and younger family members can play just that set of games.
i would also like a filter to filter sexual, dating or adult content from the store as most of the time i like to buy games i can play as a family without the chance of something adult bouncing on my screen or some boring dating story or other drivel mixing its self into a set of games.
don't get me wrong i like blood / gore etc sometimes in my own games.. but having a filter to protect the other users of my pc would be rather nice.
A_Space_Turkey I won't be buying anything from GoG till I can filter out tags I don't want to see. Steam handles it very well, GoG has no excuse. GoG devs, you have 1 year to get this done or I will delete my account permanently.
fl37ch3r Like the DRM-free and Game Preservation mission GOG is on. However, the lack of content filtering makes browsing the store very unpleasant, especially since this has been an option in Steam for a while.
I'll be taking my game purchases elsewhere until this is resolved, as I'd rather deal with DRM than this.
tigergold137 I appreciate the DRM free games, but don't appreciate the porn ridden catalogs and advertisements.
desmenzia FU GOG with your porn! You participate to degenerescence of the Human kind! Let us hide it!
radas74 Agree, we definitely need a filter for porn content. The amount of such games only continues to increase and browsing becomes more and more cumbersome.
PBRAZ1986 I can't even see the age limit on the games and I'm browsing for my kid and I don't have to play the whole game first to look for improper content. is there a solution to this?
Cloudwing Yep, we need this filter! Like most of the other commenters on here, I don't like browsing your store now. I love your mission, but please don't shove this filth in my face. I'm also a Christian, and I'd love to be able to use your site safely.
lerdranonthyte There should definitely be a filter for pornographic games at a minimum, but really it should allow the user to exclude any tags they choose. If I never want to play a sports game, or FPS, then I should be able to just exclude those from my browsing as can be done very effectively and efficiently on Steam. Please add this feature.
clarence12 It's simply unacceptable that there's no filter like this. So I guess I won't browse on GOG any more until this is implemented.
Lazbot I would like to comment that my vote is for a filter system more like Steam's where you have more nuanced options. For example I would like to out only sexually explicit games such as pornography games, but exclude games like Witcher and Bloodborne and Doom and other 18+ titles from that filtering.
The filtering system should be customisable so we can customise our own store experience!
PhoenixGunnar An adult filter is a must. I'm surprised that this still isn't an option.
karsch1 I have grandchildren that I would like to keep from seeing adult content of the store page. I tried updating my age to 14 and still the content is there...could this be a legal problem? anyway I do play games with my kids and grandkids.
Xankara Please let us hide porn games that we aren't sad enough to touch.
Jedimasterken Kind of weird we have to ask to not have porn shoved right in our faces right when we open the launcher
Crispytofu64 Needless to say, this is a must-be feature. I have been a former Nintendo gamer and some of the content is disgusting. The lack of filtering makes this site inappropriate for teenagers to use. I don't want to have children but for all those who do or are parents, don't let your children use GOG unless this issue is solved.
Sexist, sexualized and ultra-violent content means a lot of stupid game suggestion that I don't like to see. It's not just porn but mainly (ultra-)violent games. A very no-go is violence combined with porn.
And yes, I am loyal GOG user, due to better terms of use and more respect for user rights. I unfortunately spend most of my free money into GOG games, during one year of being registered here, even without ever playing the games for time reasons, but when using the shop I often feel like belonging to the very niche among GOG customers, prefering the type of games which seem to be rather niche on GOG (creative racing games and platformer games), weird.
Elmeri I'd rather you ban the porn "games" from the shop entirely, but the least you could do is let the people who want to use GOG as a GAME STORE filter them out.
doctorfrog Embarrassing that this is still not a feature.
sadface This trash should be made opt-in.
JNTL Checking back in half a year after I stopped purchasing due to this issue., and there is no improvement. Not only have you turned a notable portion of your userbase from advocate or neutral consumer to non-consumers or even active detractors, you are locking yourself out of significant markets. I know of at least one region where GOG is now on the blacklist due to pornographic materials and requires VPN to access.
xman1 Just a thought... I am beginning to think that GoG cannot get decent games added to its catalog and instead invites all the porn in to make up for it. Instead of charging 30% fees to game publishers, maybe you should try 25% and see if it makes more publishers release here instead of trying to curate the ultimate smut collection.
xman1 Really sucks when most of the new releases are porn games. Can the people here get a real girlfriend please? Getting ridiculous. How friggen pathetic are the curators for this site? I don't send deals to friends anymore because of what might potentially show up on the front page.
Bitterson +1 For a NSFW filter.
On a freely accessible site that markets products to children, you think this would be a no brainer.
TexCanaan I posted this in another thread, but I feel it's necessary to post it here, as well.
GOG.com, I have been a big fan of your site for a long time, twelve years now. I have somewhere over 200 games in my GOG library, most of which are not freebies or giveaways. And I highly admire your "No DRM. Ever." promise. It's what keeps me coming back.
But you MUST do something about these adult games being shoved in our faces. Make an easy, intuitive search filter to exclude these from our results, as well as a way to set it permanently on our accounts so we don't have to keep clicking the box every time. In addition make it filter those ads from the banners when we're logged into our accounts.
I get it, times are tough and you have to make money where you can. You have families to feed. That doesn't mean you have to force us to see these ads.
I'm a Christian, and I have ABSOLUTELY no desire to see any of that filth on my screen.
Please don't make me have to drop your store from my everyday checklist. You've frequently listened to your users before and done what you can to give us what we want and not what we don't. I'm only asking you to uphold that faith we've placed in you.
StSagara Like I love to have my wife looking over to my PC and asking me half-jokingly "Are looking for porn games again?"
Roben1221 Nobody wants to see shitty porn games.
ckvega Add adult game filter or I never spend on store.
karyonite This would be an excellent feature, not just minding kids, but also adults like myself who just want to avoid this kind of content.
Manatarms15 I would like to see this as well. It would be nice to share some of the old good games with my kids without having to be concerned about other adult items coming up.
jiminitaur GOG has become so gross to browse. Need the ability to block games and developers from showing up. I don't want my kids exposed to sexually explicit games and I don't want to be exposed to creepy weeb fantasy regardless if its R or PG13. Also at this point I've bought every game over a certain release date, and most of what is advertised to me is games I already own or have already rejected.
Let us filter our content if you won't take charge of this cesspit you've opened up.
FourierSeries This would be nice. I don't want to browse GoG anywhere all too public or on a break at work, since there are so many low effort Nudity/Sexual Content games clogging up the otherwise phenomenal sales.
RearedSquare I was looking for a way to filter out 18+ games from the store. I have no interest in seeing any of them. I guess this isn't a feature? Please add it!
Nicolodo please add this
VistaSunset It would be good if this operated on a CNAME DNS mode, like how Google supports with SafeSearch (which would be an efficient and practical way of achieving this): support.google.com/websearch/answer/186669
This could look like mapping www.gog.com to safe.gog.com to hide NSFW content from appearing.
andrei.ionita.1902 If parental controls are too much for a huge company to implement you can go into settings and have the "Recent" tab as default tab. Your kid will still be able to go to "Discover" and see porn games in "New arrivals" but hey... one step at a time.
LordPatronAstraeus I, for one, would like to stop seeing Kagura "Games," "Adult" Visual Novels, and other Low-Rent, Low-Effort Content showing up in my recommendations, because it just makes it harder to find what I'm really interested in.
