In the wake of recent controversies about what sort of game content should and should not be allowed on Steam, Valve has decided to “allow everything.” In a post today, Valve’s Erik Johnson explained that only game content that they decide is “illegal or straight up trolling” will be banned from the store once the new policy is enacted at an unannounced future date.
“Taking this approach allows us to focus less on trying to police what should be on Steam and more on building those tools to give people control over what kinds of content they see,” explained Johnson. “We already have some tools, but they’re too hidden and not nearly comprehensive enough. We are going to enable you to override our recommendation algorithms and hide games containing the topics you’re not interested in.”
