Your friend is being inconsiderate. It’s proper netiquette go invisible before playing your hentai games.
This is not a thing I've ever heard in my lifetime online.
That said; it is wiser to go invisible. I wouldn't call it inconsiderate unless/until you've discussed that with your friend.
I guess it just depends on the relation between friends as to whether you should care or not if you're seen playing a Hentai Game.
For some people; especially people who might be public figures; yes, that would be massively questionable. For other people who only ever steam friend their buddies who also share similar game interests and tastes...it might not be such a huge deal.
That said it probably is a conversation one might have with that friend; especially if it bothers you.
However, I do think there are certain times I believe that Steam should just, by default, not share when you are playing certain titles with friends.
I think on steam, like most social media, people have more friends than close buddies that are cool with it. So...
I mean, I know they do that stuff. I, however, do not need to know when they do it or what's facilitating it.
Maybe that's something you should remind your friend that steam does...this meme would help with that...
Is 'Rule 111' taken yet? I move that we enshrine, "Setting status to invisible before engaging in naughty things" as Internet rule 111
Your friends can still see you bought it/own it in the first place, unless you have that set to private, in which case you can't look up your own CSGO/CS2 stats etc. The privacy settings are unfortunately not very flexible.
If they want to look, that’s on them. I’m just trying not to shove it in their face.
If they don't know I'm a filthy fucker already, they ain't my friends. I'm online all the time baybeeee
