    Steam could invest more time curating and promoting indie content instead of the same games over and over and over. I can’t remember the last time I opened the Store and saw a new game I hadn’t heard of before.

      I see new games literally all the time. The front page and discovery queue are very good at that.

          You can filter the store to hide certain genres or mature games all together

              They meant tailors. The recommendations are based on your previous play or purchase history.

        They never said they pay attention or look around the page a little, they just said they open the store. So they likely see the first ad at the top and then close the store. Then they complain they cant find any games.

      Then you haven’t been looking at the MANY indie sales, or the Next Fest they put on every quarter where you can play hundreds of demos for indie games and try before you buy.
