If so, what kinds do you like or dislike? Do you got an opinion about them in general? I know that we've got some prudes and tightwads here, but I also know that we've got some erotica and kink-friendly peeps too. You won't get kink or slut shaming from this guy!

I've got about two dozen or so in my Steam library. The more notable ones are visual novels. The last one that I got and played was Taimanin Yukikaze and I've also got Taimanin Asagi too. I recently finished Trap Shrine as well, and started the second game Trap Legend. 🔥

My buddy lets his teenage sons use his Steam account, and they haven't mentioned the hentai games that I've sent him. I told him to ask them about them. XD

But seriously, the only problem with buying adult games on Steam is that Valve is very inconsistent at best with the 18+ content or patches. The Nekopara series being a great example. Cause you can get the 18+ patches for all of the games outside of the 4th one. Which was all on Valve apparently, and you gotta get them on the publisher's website. Just like with the Taimanin games and Dōkyūsei: Bangin' Summer. 🙄

Also, let it be known that I'm not posting links in here to keep this topic SFW and hopefully undeleted.

For the sake of national security I cannot confirm nor deny that I play adult games.....

I usually don’t, I prefer my adult entertainment straight up and not locked behind gameplay, but I did read a couple of Sakura VNs. I wish I hadn’t. The visuals and music were very nice, but writing was pure drivel, to the point I’d recommend anyone to just skip all the text.

I also read Song of Saya (that was a bitch to get working on Steam Deck), because apparently it’s all ambitious and all the nudity is justified and yeah… it was better than the Sakura games (worth reading at least), but still just a thinly veiled excuse for gawking at some anime sex.

So, um, I guess while I appreciate the idea and the craftsmanship that goes into these things, I find all the gameplay just gets in the way of fulfillment.

Very interesting topic.
I play a lot of adult games. Mostly from Itch as I find average adult game quality better than on Steam. With some exception, The Last Sovereign is probably the best Free game in Steam.
Maybe we can share some curation on adult game that works well on Linux (with CW of course) and some RPGMaker tricks.
I tends to disagree with damarrin, some erotica have very good gameplay, storytelling or both while still being good erotica. There are so many great game that we dont have to play erotica that are not also good games anymore.

Just remember to be careful when playing and call your doctor if the game lasts longer than 4 hours.

Have you tried Latex Dungeon? That game literally has something for everyone in it. It's also Linux native, and I hope that the sequel Latex Tentacles will be too. lol
I play a lot of Japanese visual novels, which are by definition adult. I don't care for the sex scenes very much most of the time. I've always found it odd that in a medium as unrestrained as visual novels, so many creators feel pressured to include sex scenes in order to appeal to the "general audience" and it kind of shows. I think Nasu is one of the famous examples...I need to get around to reading Fate sometime. I think there was a sex scene in Muv-Luv...but I can't remember it at all.

But they can be good on occasion. I'm not against them on principle. Just, nothing that comes to mind...

I tend to read manga for that sort of thing.

This, however, I can relate to. If there was one game I wish had an NSFW scene, it would have been The Expression Amrilato. I'd love to find more lesbian DRM-free VNs to read. Flowers seems good, but it's SFW, of course...

Maybe Kindred Spirits on the Rooftop would be good? I bought Katahane a long time ago and I need to get around to playing it.

I'm on exactly the same boat, I played many VNs that were technically sex games but that was a minor part of it (and most of the time worked against the rest).

I'd say I play many games that contain sex scenes, and sometimes they are even good sex scenes - for example Baldur's Gate or Hong Kong 1986 (a really sweet lesbian romance VN). Also played Max Gentlemen Sexy Business, which is fairly explicit but mostly comedy and management.

But while I am not opposed to games where the sex is the main point, most of those seem to be really bad? I tried a few of the games in this article: https://www.pcgamer.com/best-sex-games/ They were... alright? I should probably try a few more and see if anything clicks.

I have a few in my library that I got either for free or in a bundle. Out of curiosity, I tried some, but I didn't find much interest in them, whether we talk about gameplay or other kinds of adult interests.

So, short answer: no.

I have like a lots of adult games. There are the whole range of games based on fetish which are a nice way to explore fetishes but that's depends on one's taste. They can be found on itch.io, generally free as those game are mostly fund via subscription. If you wants to look at what it look like you can look for Seeds of Chaos that's include plenty of fetishes.

As for the adult games with more mainstream appeal, there are first a lot of visual novel (most novel include some sex and visual novel are no exception) , I'm fond of a few space opera ones like Tales from the Unending Void, Starship Inanna or the Sunrider Saga.

If you want to start with something nice, you may want's to look at Aurelia. It's free on itch. It is a Stardew Valley with minigames but without capitalism. It's far more peaceful and feel good in a village full of characters horny because of boredom.

I also have to mention all of Siera Lee games and particularly The Last Sovereign, which is my favorite political sim before Suzerain or Crisis in the Kremlin. This is an excellent game in so many aspect. Don't be fooled by the screenshots that are unimpressive, that is the best choice and consequence RPG, even better than Fallout (1997).

The only adult game to me is my left hand (it gives the impression someone else is doing it).
Otherwise it's physical or nothing.
for example Hong Kong 1986 (a really sweet lesbian romance VN).
And that's one game that just got added to my wishlist for the summer sale at the end of this month...

I usually don't, but I have played them before. Unfortunately, very much like other adult-content, when I use it, normally means that I'm going through some stress/anxiety from other aspects in life, so I can't say my relationship with them is the healthiest.

Also, at least the ones I've seen, most of the stories are quite corny, and the depictions of women in them are very superficial and unrealistic (to put it mildly...) which makes me feel rather weird (adding to the above)

Occasionally. Have a few on both Steam and Itch accounts. And seeing people advertising some games here I'll probably mention two myself as an example:

Price of Power - interesting "green post-apocalypse" setting and a good story, at least in first chapters. The game is in early access, but it won't stay there for long, it seems. There is a light at the end of this tunnel.

A.O.A. Academy - good art-style and not a bad story. Unfortunately developers split up (that's probably what happen) and the game will never be properly finished. Still worth mentioning even in that state.
