    I’ve never even looked at a next fest . I don’t buy games at release and don’t get games via discovery. I’m often looking for a specific game when I buy one. I don’t browse.

          Not at all. I see something that catches my eye outside of a store, then I check it out. You buy what the store algorithm puts before you

            Hey buddy, there’s a massive genre search that doesn’t use an algorithm. Plenty of hidden gems can be found this way. Nothing wrong with using other sites, but the store isn’t only feeding you garbage.
