We're experimenting with an instant search powered by Algolia, would love to hear feedback!

Currently the data in search isn't indexed instantly, some changed prices might lag behind.

Hi, would I be able to find any tags at the moment? For example, I can't find anything using 'horror', in that it doesn't seem to be able to find the tag.

Also, what's the possibility of being able to perform NOT searches (eg games NOT VR Support), like how http://www.lorenzostanco.com/lab/steam/ does.

Looks good!

SteamDB developer and generally a pretty crafty guy.
Nice and quick for me, no way to change the currency yet though?
There indeed isn't yet.

Yeah the tags search was broken, it's fixed now.

And I do want to add NOT searches in the future.
 
I forgot Audiosurf 2 was a thing. I guess it's still in Early Access, huh?

Makes me wonder what ever happened to the Beat Hazard dev. I always liked that one more than the other use-your-own-music games.
Best Story: CoD Modern Warfare
Best gameplay: Battlefield 1
Best visuals: Uncharted 4
Best new idea: Fifa 2016

Best strategy: Overwatch

In completely unrelated news, Stellaris is pretty neat. Over two hours in and I've barely scratched its surface. Very nice soundtrack, too.
 
oh god hrelp i pressed the BPM button instead of minimise

how do I get out
top right corner there should be a button to click so you can exit

Thank you!

I always forget that gives more options than just "Exit Steam."


BPM: not even once. Dunno why they even have the button there without a controller active. It's dumb.

I've never been a big fan of Beat Hazard. I think the music should matter more to the gameplay. It just feels like a twin stick shooter that lets you pick the soundtrack.

Did any US people buy Stellaris from Nuuvem? It looks like it's region locked but I thought I saw people talking about it so I was curious.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

Sweet! As always, I'll buy. I might play X-2 on PC, finished X (for the 4th time) on PS4 last year in May. I've only played X-2 once, when it first came out on PS2.
 
Heh. Honestly I only learned about it from lashman and posted it here, so props to you still.

I'm excited. Never played a Final Fantasy game. Having all these classics is pretty great. I remember when a friend back in school was talking about playing FFX on his PS2 when it was still new. Never thought I'd see it on PC back then.

How many "git gud" will I receive if I say that I'm still torn between grabbing Overwatch at launch date or not because I'm very bad at it and end up frustrated most of the time? :p

Not trying to pin it down on the game, of course, it's the most fun I've had with an FPS since, well, TF2 lol, but as much as I enjoy it, I can see myself getting really burned out with it in the long run. Seriously, if I try playing with any character that isn't D.va, there's a 95% chance I'll start screaming to my TV two minutes into the match.

Also hell fucking yeah for FFX-X2 on Steam.

The Steam equivalent of the drunk friend who keeps offering to pay your tab all night.
There was a XII-2? Or what is that revenant wings thing?

1) Doesn't work with roman numeral stuff. Try searching for "Dark Souls 3". No results.

2) Extended unicode characters seem to trip up the search. Try searching for "Dark Souls III". Notice that only "Dark" and "III" match, because Souls has a trademark symbol. If you just search "Dark Souls" it'll do the partial word completion (just like how if you do "Souls" you get "Soulstorm") but the second you put a space after "Souls" it only does full word matching.

I do a lot of text matching and searching stuff in my day job. My advice: strip all non-alphanumeric characters, convert all roman numerals to arabic numerals in both the database and searching.

Nice, bought it on Vita a couple of years ago and then dropped immediately because I couldn't read shit, so will double-dip :D

Also, seems to have both OSTs like the PS4 version.
