This is absolutely useful for developers and the health of the gaming ecosystem.

In past years, gacha/P2W games have had too many pages and too much traffic, exposing their trash to lure new gamers in the Steam store.

Traditional/buyout games have had unfair exposure conditions. Years ago, I sensed this problem, but I found good games through other channels, so I wasn’t impacted by this condition. However, the competition between buyout games and gacha/P2W games in the Steam Store is absolutely unfair.

So, I am very glad to see Valve changing this condition.

I hope I can see a lot of high-quality demos of buyout games occupying the Steam store page, getting the most exposure instead of gacha/P2W trash.
