Probably because the word "animé" in French already has the meaning of "animated" as in "full of energy."
Animé would already be closer given dessin animé.
This is glorious. I can filter visual novels and early access while keeping the stuff I actually like.
It seems like something that should have been there right from the start. Thanks to jshackles for having done it awhile ago. Can't wait to see how good this gets once Enhanced Steam is up and running fully.

The days of anime and visual novels are numbered.

Just beat this. Took me 15 hours, doing all the side missions I ran into, exploring areas, & playing lethal with limited stealth. Actually enjoyed it more than the 1st. I feel the balance on styles was a bit better here. Especially with being able to use Omni-tools. I didn't put any points into hacking and was rarely locked out of any areas. About the only complaint I really have is that the game kinda forces stealth in one section later in the game. But you can thankfully run past if need be. Playing it as an action game was so satisfying.
I didn't feel the ending was an issue. Maybe since I knew before hand, but it wasn't as abrupt as I was expecting. Everything I needed was answered at the end.

Yeah I think the multi-tool and crafting stuff was done really well and made it easier to spec into the stuff you want not the stuff you needed.

Not sure I like the filtering of the top sellers lists - needs an extra click or two to get to the real info - I don't find 'here are the top sellers that you don't own' very useful. Is there any way to change this?
Edit: no biggie, I guess - easy enough to get to the full list, never mind.

There was a teleport? I only specd the armor when it came to the new abilities.
Yes, and it works pretty much the same way blink does in dishonored. Just a bit more limited and unupgradable (IIRC).
Finally beat FFX after 40 hours (the Steam tracker recorded 48 hours but that's probably because I died 8 times to the last boss, he's tough). Anyway, for all its faults (which are plenty, many of them associated to it being a 15 years old game), it's one of the best games I've played this year, and it definitely struck a chord with me like few other games did. Honestly, had I played it during a different time period, maybe I wouldn't have enjoyed it as much, but a lot of its themes and symbolism resonate with me, and that, allied to a charming cast, made me enjoy it a lot. I also started X-2, but I'm not sure if I'll keep with it, seems too much of fanfiction for my taste.
And yeah the laughing scene sucks. There's no defending that.

Hmm, for some reason I don't have a Global config. There's one under Profile Templates, but when pasted into the profiles folder, attempting to edit and then save it gives me a no permissions reaction.

Dishonored 2 had its unlock time updated earlier. AU/NZ and Asia get it first, in ~36.5 hours, followed by Europe in ~45.5 hours and the Americas in two days (and possibly some change). Add an hour if Valve still hasn't fixed the countdown timer.
Valve's never said anything on the matter.

By the way, as opposed to the tags to filter games out, is there a way to add tags of games that you want to see more of?

Search for the tag.
Haha I tried that, but what I specifically meant was a combination of several (in this case maybe three) tags. Steam does have the "Narrow by related tags" but I find the options rather lacklustre.
So that if you filter on cyberpunk, story and stealth, you'd get the Deus Ex series and maybe other games I'm not aware of that I might like.

Kinda in the mood now to play Dishonored 2. But I can wait. Not gonna spend $60 bucks on it.
Hope I've done this right...

Well, you can combine the "Cyberpunk", "Story-rich" and "Stealth" tags to get exactly that, but since the system uses ids rather than the tags themselves, there's no easy way to use a specific tag that it doesn't suggest. E.g. 4115 is Cyberpunk, but 4116 is unassigned.

Does anyone know if the new store filters (by tag) also affect the discovery queue?
There are a few tags I'd happily filter out, in order to perhaps not see them on the store home page or wherever, provided this doesn't also prevent them hitting the queue - I'm happy to see everything once just in case some dodgy tagging inadvertently sees something hidden that shouldn't be.

C'mon.. if you're filtering out anime you won't get to see:
- Final Fantasy games
- Tales of games
- Dragonball games
- Naruto games
- Street Fighter games
- Trails games
- God Eater
- Danganronpa
etc
There are good apples in the ocean of the bad ones.

If the reviews are bad, I could very well see that happening by Christmas.
Popular tags are what defines something.
No, that has a separate filter option (and has for a while now).
There's also a filter for the New on Steam section.

Regarding Dishonored 2 DRM:
Is this activation limit on top of Denuvo and Steam DRM, or is that just a thing Denuvo does now?

I know. Street Fighter's anime tag isn't popular, so therefore, will not be triggered by the filter. Just like your example of Aragami.
Regarding Dishonored 2 DRM:

Denuvo's been like that.
?
The actual popular ones are on the store page itself.
They aren't random. The ones on the store page are the ones that are actually popular, and thus are what would determine their priority in filtering. Something like Naruto is going to get filtered by anime before Aragami is, because a shitload more people tag it with anime.
Like, Female Protagonist is one for SFV too. If someone for whatever reason filters that out, it isn't going to block SFV, because only a minority of the people tagging it are tagging it with that, but it WOULD filter out a game where that was the highest voted tag.

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.

At least they're letting people know that the game uses Denuvo. I think that's a first.

I'm halfway through Star Trek Beyond. All it's missing is the "Trek" part.
It's all about the Big Blue Buttons.
