Steam needs to promote new games far better

[Cherrycat]

The biggest problem with this platform is games can release and people often don't even know about it, you need to do a better job of promoting new games to your customers.

Either do it based off preferences they set themselves and/or based off their libraries.

If I'm a fan of the forest, I should be told about any new games that are like that which release.

The lengths companies have to goto these days to get attention is wrong, and you have all the resources to change that.

Question
How are the games that are featured on the main store page or in the update news popups selected?

Main carousels and pop up new are a mix of curated by Valve and tailored to your account. It should tell you if they are tailored to you in the carousels, if they are tailored. The pop up news will not.

Well, how does Valve pick them?

From a mixture of recommendations by curators you follow and your friends, from the games you play, from your friends recommendations and finally from what is highly popular among users.

New games and Sale and developer sale seems pain in ass I think about it, Sale means it pay cut to developers, Unless they made good profit on game in beginning that means they can handle rip tides. People look at reviews made by first time buyers or game itself pictures sell, and even reviewer who actually does viral video review sells the game multiple places hello?
Buyer might be changed Game and software Connoisseur that actually does exist. Someone in word press area can explain more in details. I have put note we are meticulous what we want and we buy it.
I only buy certain things and give it benefit of doubt on sale days.
