Non-Co-op games in the sale

[Gundyr Christopher]

I went to look at the new sale and I see a bunch of games that do not have local co-op being recommended. First one that stood out to me was the DB Fighterz, which doesn't do local co-op but has local versus.

OK? So what? Still playable on the couch with your buddies, which is the key point. Plenty of other games with co-op in there I imagine.

Sale's going to end in a few hours anyway. A bit late to complain about it.

Well if the sale is called coop I would like coop? I don't play fighting or 1v1 games.

Then look at the co-op games that are part of the sale. Seems like a pretty simple concept to me. Every sale has plenty of games that don't interest me, so I look for the ones that do. That's a part of being a consumer.

I just want to know why it's showing me fighting games.

I hate guys like you that say stuff in threads like these. That same logic should keep you from reading complaints in the first place, but here we are.

I figure that's why it's in the sale, but I swore Steam's algorithm was better in the past when recommending games on themed sales.

Games are put in themed sales by their developers and approved by whoever runs the sale. There's not an "algorithm" that puts games on sale.

This^. Devs request approval by Valve for their themed events.

Here's the example for the VN event...

I didn't know about the devs requesting their games into sales, but I wasn't really referring to that. My bad for not being more clear.

I was referring to that the first game it showed me on my PC was a fighting game but my girlfriend's screen showed a cooking game. That's the algorithm I was referring.

That's pretty interesting, I didn't know you could see these things ahead of time. Thanks for sharing.
