Seem like the results don't change that much. Maybe the percentages for the ones tagged as LGBTQ+ are slightly lower? After the other filters only ~6% of the games left had the "Hentai" tag anyway
Line graph of percentage of games released on Steam with female protagonists by year, including only games also tagged as "Story Rich" and excluding any games tagged as "Hentai". The graph shows a downward trend, starting at around 45% in 2007 then falling to around 20% in 2024. Of note are the years 2005 and 2006, which both have 0% and 2010 which has only around 7%.

Also plotted a couple other versions taking review count into account (at the sort of arbitrary 1000 review threshold)

The graph does not show a big increase or decrease, remaining at around 15%.

I got curious enough to take the data from that video and plot this. It's as you said, the trend doesn't change much except for the actual percentages going up from ~10% to ~25% for female protagonists and ~2% to ~7% for LGBTQ+ (comparing post 2014, as the original graph).
