Last week i read it would make it all "easier" to browse for games in the store.
But you used to have a whole long list (and could hover over games), now you got a very short list, with "show me more" but do they expect us to get RSI by clicking that a couple of hundred times or something?

I have no idea what you are talking about, I can't register any changes at Steam. Maybe provide a screenshot?

This new (first two pictures) vs old (last picture) I want to browse through that old picture, but hard to find (if it's still possible at all).
Maybe it hasn't rolled out for everyone?

I always had buttons like that "show more" in the hub section.I'm actually surprised that top seller and search listings don't have such buttons too, I remember hitting "next page" in the past.
And the main store page still has endless scrolling. I really can't tell any difference.

Same shit here, sometimes I only get three titles before I have to click "show more", and it won't let me remove the 'hide ignored games'. My former sorting where I did 'ignore+follow' for semi-interesting games now bites me in the ass. :') Can't see them with their new system.

just to hopefully clear things up before you close this down,
afaik the first two pics show subgenres from the main hub (aka store_home)
to get to something like the 3rd pic all you have to do is to search for anything - it should get you to the parts you´re used to!

Yeah that was what i was missing and looking for (and also another user already commented below).

With the new revamp i was afraid they might have removed it (and maybe still will). Thank you.

you simply press the magnifying glass in the top right and you have the search in the 3rd picture what is the issue?

No, i used a google image search to get the old picture as an example, that was what i was missing, and afraid it would be gone, but some comments below a user showed me the way.

Weird considering I'm seeing the opposite of what you're seeing. I distinctly remember having to click numbers before and now it's just one long scroll (in the annoying tradition of everything slowly becoming a mobile experience). Can also hover to see info (though I'm pretty sure I could do that before as well).

Hmm, mobile maybe? I'm on my PC.

Strange. Seems like I am still on the old version.

On mobile, well, the app anyway, it's still the long scrollable list, I just checked!

I don't bother with the main store page anymore since it's been unusable for ages. I look for games with this link instead: https://store.steampowered.com/search/?sort_by=Released_DESC

It seems closer to what you're looking for according to your screenshots? I disabled infinite scrolling in the preferences since it's probably the worst human invention since the nuclear bomb (but Steam keeps reactivating it from time to time, glad they care about user experience -_-) and I think it's a pretty decent way to browse games compared to the main page.

That's what i was looking for many thanks, i was afraid they removed it all together with their latest revamp, many thanks. :) I will bookmark it. This is just so much easier to browse with yes.

Yeah, I find it pretty bloated as well. Currently only way to get the old list from the main page is browsing specials. Though I have a feeling that it won't stay this way. I hope at least they don't touch this.

Edit: I liked @Melusca's way more. <3
