Suggestion: Add Mac OS Catalina Browsing Filter

[Campy]

There are only three OS listed under the Browse section of the Steam store: Windows, Linux, Mac. The issue here is that within the additional filters there is no way to filter games that can be played on Catalina’s 64-bit only OS and those that cannot. Adding this to the filters within the Browse section would cut down on a lot of “guess and check” clicking by Mac users.

A lot of devs haven't even updated their store page with the correct check anyways...

I believe another user has posted about another issue...

The other topic goes on about incorrectly labeled games. That's why it is, posted above.

mc-Hotsauce,

Thank you for sharing those posts. I know that I am not alone in the Catalina update being a huge annoyance. However, the forum posts above aren't suggesting a filter in the Browse section, but merely an update on the Flag within the game homepage in the store. I am suggesting that instead of relying on the user to see that a game is compatible with Mac, then click into the game to double-check that it is a working game within Catalina, then either be elated or dismayed at the results. By creating a filter, instead of modifying the flag, then the search results can be narrowed by Catalina-compatible or not without having to go to the homepage and check.

It is annoying that games are incorrectly mislabeled, however, and I do agree that that ought to be looked into further, as well.

Steam, any update?

I'd like this as well. I keep a healthy sized wishlist, and have lots of games on it not supported by Catalina. I want to keep them on the wishlist for a time when they might be available but wish I could filter them out when looking at the wishlist. I tried adding my own 'Catalina' tag but the search by tag doesn't seem to pick that up.
