MODERATORS
Not sure what it says about the current state of gaming that so many of these games are quite old
Not much? I eyeball it as about 1/4 of the games being in the last two years. That seems pretty reasonable to me.
If an actual majority were brand new games it would just tell you that PC gamers (or at least steam deck) are just chasing novelty over quality. It's OK not to play every brand new game right on release, and it's OK to play older games.
It looks like 1/4 of the games were released in the last 2 months(ish) lol:
-Baldur's Gate 3
-Dave the Diver
-Armored Core 6
-Holocure
-Remnant 2
If I'm counting it right, half of the games were released in the last 2 years
Yeah, I didn't search. Just did the ones I immediately recognized as recent big budget ones.
HoloCure is an exception I’d say: It was on itch.io for almost a year before the recent Steam release.
