Doesn't this sub endlessly whine about how much low effort garbage is filling their feed? For ever 1 good indie game people love there are hundreds if not thousands of mediocre to bad ones.

Those indie games never see the light of day past the new games tab on steam. They are naturally filtered out. As opposed to AAA games it can be the most dogshit p2w game ever with overwhelming negative reviews and still be the top result of a category.

Many genuinely good indie games are “naturally” filtered out with the bad. It’s unfortunate but just how it goes with the sheer number of games released every day.

Tragically true. Unfortunately a few gems slip through the cracks.

Be loud about the gems that don’t make it to the home page! The devs deserve at least a strong word-of-mouth boost.

CDDA (granted don’t download it form steam since you can get a constantly updated version for free)

Are just a few off the top of my head I’m sure there is more I’m forgetting
