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.
spaceflounder I would like a content filter on GOG Galaxy and storefront, please. This should have been implemented years ago.
ElDoRado1239 GOG is for adults, and you never see anything explicit unless you confirm the NSFW pop-up anyway. So GOG is not "missing" anything.
You can look up tags in the games listing and click on the Eye icon to exclude games with that tag. Favorite the URL and it now you can always access a "sanitized" GOG listing. That solves the issue if you're such a fanatic that you can't stand even just seeing the names of NSFW games existing...
... wait a minute. SFW titles use suggestive thumbnails all the time too, how do you know they're NSFW games?! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I get it. You've played them and now feel guilty. Don't worry, the post peanut clarity will pass soon.
And if you're for real... Nothing "sexually explicit" is shown, that's just pure lies. Take your puritan oppression, manipulation and scheming elsewhere, you're not welcome.
Civilwardude1 Super happy to have a gaming site that is DRM free. Yet I really do wish that there was a way to have filter for these games and to keep adult/pornographic games out of my gaming feed. Please GOG place a filter so we can search through these old and new games safest way possible!
ChFra Please answer the following question: What exactly IS "adult only", or "NSFW"? The answer depends on your culture, so implementing such a "no-brainer" involves constant discussions about what belongs into this category and what does not.
Example: in the USA, violence is generally OK, while nudity is a no-go; the opposite is true for most of the EU.
reverendvader I logged on today and I felt kind of assaulted by a massive glut of sexually explicit games in the catalog on my home page... when did this happen? How can I hide those game or turn off that feature? i don't want to buy them. I don't want to have to see them. Thanks.
Mubbs It's the one thing that pushes me to only buy from GOG when they have a game that I want that no other storefront provides. I don't use GOG Galaxy either for this reason. I would use Steam less, but at least I can filter the smut and trash there.
lem0nchin0 Yes, GOG, PLEASE add a filter to hide these temptations! I'm new to this platform, and I love DRM free games, but I don't want to see pornographic games on Galaxy. Steam at least lets you filter that filth out.
trachea It would be nice to be able to filter adult content. I'm far from being a prude but when I come to GOG, I have very little interest in this stuff. I would love to be able to not have it show up at all when I'm looking for games to purchase.
walker956 Yes, would be nice to filter because these games tend to be lower quality gameplay-wise. And I don't personally care for these types of games. If other people want to play them though that's fine. I feel like it gets too cluttered quickly when browsing the site. Personally I think that if you're randomly browsing and you see 500 pages then that should in theory lead to lower sales because people can't be bothered to scroll.
b_a_j_t Games with sexual content should be hidden by default
Mikemario11 yes I upvote this I want to see kid-Friendly games on the platform
and have the ability to filter specific content like you can do with steam
TrineL So I don't like Steam as much as GoG. But If I have to make a choice of buying a game on Steam, where I can set a family-friendly environment for my children, or GoG, where I can't filter or hide any garbage, the choice is out of my hands and I have to go with Steam because it gives more control to the user in setting their own options for filtering.
TokeurZ This is a need, i agree.
dotslashadotout I get that some people want to buy adults-only/unrated pornographic games, I just want to be able to set a filter so that they're not shown to me, and especially so I don't get NSFW email ads at work.
PhoenixGunnar This needs to be a thing. GOG is an awesome service, but without an NFSW service, I can't trust the app for the next generation who shouldn't be corrupted by this filth.
JNTL Coming back to this thread because I just received more porn marketing e-mail from GOG. Thought I had unsubscribed a long time ago. This time, I reported it as spam. I hope this impacts your mail delivery system.
StrumPlukAndPik Adult content should be an opt-in feature, but sadly it's enabled by default and you can't disable it. If GOG won't voluntarily add the ability to opt-in/out, are there any public petitions or campaigns that can be joined? I'm close to abandoning my 10+ years account with recent purchases due to GOG's deaf ear on this - all because GOG appears to be putting profit ahead of being a good safe space for gamers.
noshisenpai Really GOG? You’re seriously advertising Lust Academy Final like it’s a major release now? This is exactly the kind of crap I don’t want to see on the homepage.
I’ve supported GOG because it used to stand for quality, DRM-free games, not shovelware porn with AI-looking characters slapped on top. I don’t care if people want to buy that stuff, but at least give the rest of us a way to filter it out.
Steam figured this out years ago. Why is it so hard for GOG to do the same?
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.
