drosophila, do games w You can now search for Steam games by adjustable difficulty, mouse-only options and other accessibility tags

An FoV slider tag might be a good addition to the camera comfort section; I’ve heard many people say that narrow FoVs can make them motion sick.

I’m still miffed that we still can’t filter for two tags at once in Steam, unless its just me who doesn’t know how to do it. Everytime I filter more than one tag, it just acts more like an ‘or’ rather than an ‘and’.

fefellama,

Augmented Steam does this I believe. Just tried it out and it seemed to work just fine (only things that matched all filters showed up).

stephen01king,

But I prefer browsing in the Steam app. Do they have a plugin for the built-in Steam browser?

fefellama,

I don’t think so unfortunately. I just like browsing via my browser. Besides the features of Augmented Steam, it’s handy having my shortcuts and gestures on the browser compared to Steam itself.

stephen01king,

Guess I’ll still be waiting for Valve to update their search function. Thanks for the suggestion, anyway.

HeyJoe, do games w Same-date PC ports of PS5 games remain unlikely, as Sony talk up "thoughtful" multiplatform approach despite Xbox comparisons

I’ll never understand the hate for doing this. To me, it makes perfect sense as to why you would not release the game on PC at the same time. If you don’t have people buying your system, then you’re done. Xbox is going through this now. It seems almost guaranteed they give up on developing systems and pivot exclusively to PC someday. I’ll be shocked if that handheld system they are about to release takes off.

Keep the exclusives and timed releases. If I really want to play it, I’ll buy the system or wait, it’s not a big deal.

SlayPtation

What a typo. But they’ll change their tune as soon as one line crosses another line. I’m willing to pay $70 or $80 for the right game, but my willingness to part with that much money drops precipitously as soon as you make me wade through spoiler-filled GOTY season without having access to the game. When you port the game to PC a year late, I’m probably content to keep waiting for half price.

BlameTheAntifa,

This is my own approach, to a T. If you make me wait, I’ve lost interest. There are so many amazing games out there, many from more deserving indie studios, that the competition for my attention and money is fierce. This goes for delayed releases and releases that launch with malware like Denuvo. It’s very unlikely that I will ever touch either, even at a steep discount.

One hell of a title there, lol. Have to read the article to understand that one I guess. 🤪

Still doesn’t hold a candle to the “SlayPtation” typo.

I need a search option for “most obscure controller support” so I can speedrun them with my Dark Souls certified Keytar and 7 piece drum set

But really searching by, and adding more accessibility to games is good, more accessibility is never bad. Glad we’re not listening to capital G Gaaaamers who think adding things to make games easier somehow detracts from their ability to perform (admittedly very cool) frame-perfect dodges or somehow means their practiced twitch perfect shot in CS2 is somehow meaningless because more people can…checks notes play the game

You can rebind controllers in steam or use external tools like x360ce to rebind thing like analog axes to buttons or vice versa

    Really cool to see them add this.

    There are probably even more categories they could add but one step at a time.

    Mouse only for certain visual novel games? 😜

    Reminds me how Diplomacy is not an Option is seriously hard even in the lowest difficulty “walk in the park”, they really should nerf it

    PlantJam,

    Atomic Heart was like that, too. Tons of difficulty options to customize your experience, but no matter what combat always felt like a punishment.

    Nice, the search function, while okay, has always been far too limited in my experience. Can’t wait to check this out.

    @SweetCitrusBuzz@beehaw.org avatar

    Hmmmm, a bit confusing it’s a dating sim if it’s meant to be about an AroAce person, but it’s somehwat understandable if somebody is trying to figure themselves out.

    Might check it out once it’s complete (early access is too hard to trust especially with a newly made studio).

    Goretantath,

    Yeah, i’d just call it a visual novel. If you aren’t dating in it then its not a dating aimulator.

    Sas,

    Disclaimer: I’ve not played the game and don’t know if it’s accurate but it could be about going on dates with the expectation of it just being a friend date but then the other person wants more and stuff like that. Like how in BG3 you just want to dance a bit with Wyll and he randomly tries to kiss you

    theneverfox,
    @theneverfox@pawb.social avatar

    It’s an anti-dating simulator… Kind of like an anti-joke or an anti-game, they’re subcategories of jokes and games

    If you invert the game mechanic, you’re still using the mechanic. That’s very different from not using the mechanic

    Rozauhtuno,

    Dating is lava.

    How so?

    theneverfox,
    @theneverfox@pawb.social avatar

    I think they’re trying to explain how this works in a dating sim.

    This isn’t the first game to do it… Instead of trying to weave through the choices to date a character or characters, you weave through the options to avoid dating without getting a game over (or whatever game mechanic they use)

    SweetCitrusBuzz,
    @SweetCitrusBuzz@beehaw.org avatar

    Thanks for explaining! We appreciate it!
