How can I hide games faster

you just saved my life. i almost started clicking every 1 point game and select hide in the future.
thank you

OMG, my life now divides to "up to this point" and "from now on"...
This is so useful!

Using one of those seems to be permanent; how to "Reset" the settings?

Possibly, but I'd rather not sift through dog crap to find a few acrylic gems.

I ran the numbers recently, after someone mentioned that only 1% of <$5 games are actually good, and... it's actually right about 1% of them, by my estimates (a more restrictive estimate put it closer to .5%). It was a really rough estimation, but the actual number can't be too far off. Valve's new "everything is accepted, no restrictions" policy is only going to exaggerate that further.

Meanwhile, GOG is damn hard to get an indie game onto, and itch.io lacks widespread recognition or appeal. As you say, it's rough trying to get visibility for a game with actual effort and dignity put into it.

Well, I guess everyone can price their games at $6, ey? That does seem to be where favorable games mostly start. Especially once you factor in that a lot of the decent games below $5 are enhanced ports of games that are free elsewhere.

But, really, it has nothing to do with indie developers, and everything to do with Valve- despite a complete lack of effort from the start- having become a monopolistic organization that dominates the market, that has slowly been introducing more and more anti-consumer considerations over time.

i see it the same way.
i like to hide games myself, but i did so all manual. not to miss anything that i would really enjoy
the sad thing is like sooth said it in his reply.. most of the games are rubbish. ofc someone might enjoy it, so i am strictly against a policy that is too restrictive.

btw for steamgifts i would really enjoy a feature to hide all games from a category/tag. f.ex. for me: hidden object games
but such feature would be pretty hard to integrate as all tags would need to be included in the database :/

In my case, I exclusively use the "Wishlisted" and "New" searches ('cause even though there's rarely more than 2 pages of wishlisted games for me, I still like being able to quickly check against recent additions), and junk games spam the New filter, and I'm far too obsessive about organization to just ignore that. :X

It's probably awful under considerations of efficiency, honestly. :P

For me it was like:

1. Oh a GA for a Game.
2. Lets look at it on steam.
3. Realised i am not interested.
4. Marked it as not interested on steam and hid them here as well.

So neither Steam nor SG will never bother me with the game i am not interested in again.

Of course i also found out about some games i added to my wishlist or bought afterwards.

Personally, poor graphic quality isn't something I've ever inherently associated with "cheap".

Just a very quick list off the top of my head:

Since you seem focused on "pixel" as the contrast point, perhaps your intent was to say "complex graphics", rather than "good graphics"? 'cause yeah, other'n maybe Meadow and Marlow, none of the games I listed (or the plenty of other ones I could have) would qualify under that consideration.

Not that you in any way need to justify your gaming tastes (or filter choices) to anyone other than yourself.
Just poking at the word choice. :)
