You can in fact block those, specifically, at least by disabling AO+ rated games from showing up in your queue at all. I don’t know if there are other categories or filters that can do this, but I know for sure nsfw games can be since I use it.
There are some non-porn games that get caught by that setting, unfortunately. I had to disable it back when… I want to say when the Witcher 3 was released? Not sure, but it was some huge release that got filtered.
Yeah I blocked those ages ago and the only game that I was actually interested in that got blocked was baldurs gate 3. Easy to hit “show games blocked by my filters” to get the one game that was the exception, which I already knew about without Steam telling me so

I bought Dispatch and now 90% of my suggestions are hentai “dating” sims.
Their discovery system needs work.
I can’t even block them because there’s a never ending queue of them each time it refreshes it shows new ones.
You don’t even get to date malevola so dispatch is pretty shit as a dating sim.
There is a tag for dating sim and another for visual novel that you can exclude
A way to filter out certain categories by tags would be great, if they haven’t added that already.
You can filter tags in your settings.
Hooray!
I haven’t had a reason to yet, awesome that it is there if I ever do.

Also blocking hides them completely, you can’t even find them if you search by name. I just want to take them out of the recommendations.
That’s a bit of a problem. Is that not, however, calling for censorship? On the AI front, that I understand.
Not censorship, but not massively overindexing like that.
The on route to getting recommended this stuff is way too open without a way to tell it stop.
When I go in my top recommendation is “Fetish Locator S&M Studio”, and these are all in my top recommendations at the top of the store:
Meanwhile my library looks like this:
I will say recommendations based on games I play is pretty good, but I’ve also dismissed “5 hearts one roof” and similar a ton of times.
I guess the next step to improve recommendations is to better consider what the user doesn’t play.
You can remove content/tags/genres from your discovery queue. In the settings somewhere.
I’ve removed VR so I get no results.
Edit
You degenerate!
Don’t be so be ridiculous.
You don’t see the link between Cities Skylines II and Fetish Locator: S&M studio?
Have you not tried the San Fernando Valley expansion pack for C:S2?
There is a link, same type of ppl would buy those games, more likely than a cod player
