Hi all, I know this question has probably been posted on the internet millions of times, yet I would like to receive some Lemmy-oriented answers. :) What are your favorite places, websites, or creators for discovering new games in your favorite genres?

One of my main tools has been SteamDB's instant search - it's basically a giant list of all steam games, sorted by review score, with a TON of different filters you can apply. Looking specifically for something released this year? You can filter for it. Looking specifically for a co-op action shooter, or a singleplayer 2d platformer? You can filter for those too. Wanting to exclude early access games or exclude games with a min/max number of reviews? You can do that too. Very handy tool

Very nice pointer, thanks for that!

Just think of all the poor indie games filtered from my findings because of my “Exclude: Roguelike” filter.

Who cares? I exclude genres I don't like too. Play the games you like. I'm sure those poor indie games will do just fine despite a guy on Lemmy saying he excludes them.
