GamezRanker: Anyhoo, as long as the games are drm free then i'm all for Gog adding em here....even if I personally might not like/want to play this or that game.....and even though such things don't bother me(store page thumbnails and etc), I would also welcome a filter option for those that want it.
Most of GOG's "adult" games, require you to state you are over 17 YO to view, not sure what else is needed. (although a filter for "adult" games would be welcome)

I keep "adult" in quotation marks, because it's rarely grown-ups who either buy or boycott games with boobies.

If someone is OK with bloody gibs, but not with bouncy tits, there's some really deep issues at play.

As previously stated i'm OK with Porn, but theres a time and a place for it, if i want too see it i know where to find it, anyone who can fathom their way around google does.

But i don't set my homepage to Pornhub, it doesn't appear when i click on my desktop, i'll just google it... if i wanna see adult games on Steam, i'll turn off the filters, it's that easy.

Otherwise i choose not too see it, but if there is no filter options and it's on the store homepage my only choice is not to visit the store page.


The more you force it, the more it's just gonna turn on you anyway when you get the local social media mob calling for censorship of it, give the options now and save yourselves from the shit later on.

mechmouse: Porn won't save GoG, but a better and wider selection of games (inc AO) will.

DetouR6734: But they ain't though.. curated games yet ones i would buy they ain't bringing across..
Which games?

There are dozens of games I'd buy via GoG in a heartbeat, and some times it is GoG's fault they're not here.

Now I KNOW GoG's curation is erratic and opaque, and needs HUGE work to streamline and make it more consistant and transparent, but I don't think they dropping games they would have otherwise released in favour of AO games. It not a zero sum thing. GoG can and does release big batches of titles in a week.

BanditKeith2: Not really as when using a pc for gaming on a specific storefront and a console for gaming its basically the same concept as they are both storefronts that specialize in selling games and a selection they both allow even if you can get movies on both or serioes on both the storents they mainly focus on games .. a more proper example is like telling someone to not go to a store just because they have afew items that aren't liked by some people and told to go to other stores without em despite perhaps more cost or time spent as a result or maybe even the other stores having lesser products

DetouR6734: That post makes no sense to me tbh.

My previous replies state my position on it.
Here then try this.. Say a store that sells just local products and some group don't like that started selling a specific persons goods all because they don't like the person.. So they start telling everyone they won't shop till the place stop selling that persons goods .. which in turn gets a reasonable remark of''heres some other stores selling all local products and none from that person you all dislike go their instead;'' As people going on about porn games and hating them here .. Even refusing to shop here till they iether are removed or a filiter.. if not stop getting here all together is basically the same situation.. If a person is unhappy with a stores products when nothing is wrong with the products they should iether go elsewhere or be reasonable..

Where as the''don't use the interent'' remark doesn't hold reasonable logic now.. but it used to in its early days when most things on the net could be gotten easily from stores or via the phone .. now though thats no longer the case

"ittle dew 2" is apparently one of them... and i'm wondering if "Ori - Will of the wisps" is another, considering the steam version can be played and launched without Steam installed (once downloaded ofcourse)

Yeah, I meant a filter for such games for those others who want such. :)

You'd be surprised how many adults actually play such games(bought or not).

Yer likely right on this(at least for some people).

For all the moral outrages on these forums about Chinese censorships, DRM issues and other freedom of speech like issues it is amazing to see how more or less united the front against nudity and sex is here with our SJWs righteously downvoting each adult title through reviews.

Do you really think that seeing somebody's entrails and skull shot with blood spilling everywhere - or playing survival horror / Alan Wake sequel - is somehow better for child / vulnerable mental health than seeing boobs and naked bodies? Really? Why oppose sexually explicit content - by all means filter it (as is required by law anyway) - but let the user vote with his money. Free market sorts this out very quickly.

Any child with unblocked internet access can obtain as much or as little porn as he or she wants anyway - GOG or no GOG. It is up to the said hypothetical child's parents to exercise their duty and limit / educate / guide him accordingly in his life choices and experiences.

Afaik, many of said types actually like/welcome said content here.....it's more or less a number on the opposing end that oppose said games here.

Deep issues indeed.

The main point of all games is some type of conflict or obstacle you have to clear on your way.

In action games like Castle Wolfestein AI controls an army trying to kill you and you perform acts of self defense while escaping. Both sides of conflict are armed and prepared for a fight. AI is the one that attacks you on sight and gives you no other option but to fight.
There is very small number of games that actually turn this around and make you kill a defensless characters or require you to be the first to start the fight with innocent AI characters (Hitman).

On the other hand, adult video games are about tricking females into having sex with you. Here, you are a predator and defenseless female characters are your prey.

Do you really think this is the same thing?

The arguement is more so based on ''why is killing,gore and all that related violence in games fine ... yet porn/sex based games are not '' its basically pointing out the nonsensical one is okay yet the other is not mentality even more so when media heavy on the sexaul stuff, bed scenes and nude scenes even rap depected in movies and shows is fine by the masses but not in games .. its basically pionting out the stupidity in the argument basically

This entire bit......the amount of nonsense within it....I cannot even. *GR falls over laughing*
(suffice it to say, the above is about as truthful as Jim Carey at the start of Liar Liar)

Also two things:

1. The characters are sometimes male/etc

and (more importantly)

2. They're not real

Also since we're now worrying about fictional characters apparently: what about all those enemies people slay in FPS games? Do they not matter? What about their fictional families and friends who have to mourn their passing? o.0

If GOG wants to sell adult games it would help if you could, you know, actually buy them.

I hear ya.

Sadly, though, Gog cannot override any overly restrictive policies that might prevent such purchases in one's home country.
(well maybe Gog could, in a way, if they implemented an ID check....but I don't think that would fly well with many here)

In one types of games you are a hero fighting superior enemy with ability to fight back and in other games you are the rapist.

Thats a misconception many games don't do either anymore if at all.. for example Elder scroll games on here you can kill good and bad as much as you want .. The Saints Row games atleast the early ones you are a gang member doing crimes and killing baddies.. You even have varies games where you play the bad guy like for example the Overlord game or even Dungeon maker where you are evil

And most porn/sex games aren't like that.. how you mentioned it seems you iether are using strawman arguments or have been taken in by the type that lies about media they don't like to demonize it and those into it for varies reasons
