      They do, though?

      There is a “shared/splitscreen co-op” tag.

        I wish they’d expand on it and have a filter for player count in co-op. I have a game group of five and finding co-op, 5 player games is hard/most of them cap at 4.

        The ones that don’t cap at 4 and aren’t requiring high dexterity (i.e. fps) are base building survival games all the way down— which are fine for the most part, don’t get me wrong, I just wish we could find something with the production quality and premise of Outlast Trials.

        So far we’ve done: Conan Exiles, The Forest (1 & 2), Astroneer, Core Keeper, Return to Moria, Green Hell (may have been before we were at 4), Demonic, Deep Rock (with a 5 player mod), and a little REPO (which was good, but no progression system yet). I wanted to try Barotrauma but the puppet movement’s a bit janky for me.

        I know there’s a third party search engine I can use, but it’s sooo full of junk it’s hard to find anything worthwhile.

    I know there’s a lot of Steam haters out there but simple shit like this is why they’re on top.

    I need a search option for “most obscure controller support” so I can speedrun them with my Dark Souls certified Keytar and 7 piece drum set

      You can rebind controllers in steam or use external tools like x360ce to rebind thing like analog axes to buttons or vice versa

        Learn to use a mouse left handed, it’s worth it. ;)

    Nice, the search function, while okay, has always been far too limited in my experience. Can’t wait to check this out.

    I’m still miffed that we still can’t filter for two tags at once in Steam, unless its just me who doesn’t know how to do it. Everytime I filter more than one tag, it just acts more like an ‘or’ rather than an ‘and’.

      Augmented Steam does this I believe. Just tried it out and it seemed to work just fine (only things that matched all filters showed up).

        But I prefer browsing in the Steam app. Do they have a plugin for the built-in Steam browser?

    Really cool to see them add this.

    There are probably even more categories they could add but one step at a time.

  • yournamehere@lemm.ee ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    yes. but there are barely any splitscreen games

    source
    • MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I’d kill for more modern splitscreen games, especially on PC

        I used this to play Minecraft with my girlfriend on my PC and it works alright. I do use it with 2 screens though. There’s other games too but I haven’t tried any.

        But yes I do agree there is a severe lack of splitscreens nowadays especially with the hardware we have available now compared to what we used to.

    Reminds how Diplomacy is not an Option is seriously hard even in the lowest difficulty “walk in the park”, they really should nerf it

      Atomic Heart was like that, too. Tons of difficulty options to customize your experience, but no matter what combat always felt like a punishment.

    An FoV slider tag might be a good addition to the camera comfort section; I’ve heard many people say that narrow FoVs can make them motion sick.
