Steam's NSFW and Mature tags ditched by Valve in favour of "more descriptive" ones like Sexual Content and Gore, as part of wider revamp (www.rockpapershotgun.com)

Steam did change their general "mature content" filtering recently-ish I think. That's independent of tags.

In your account settings you can go to your Store preferences and enable or disable if you want "mature content", violence and gore, "some nudity", and possibly others, along with some example games for those categories.

Since I'm from Germany it stops at "some nudity", since more explicit stuff is blocked here anyway, but if you're from a more developed country you should get one or two more options.

That way you shouldn't need to rely on tags to filter out all the porn games (if that's what you want).
