searching for games is tiring when the before mentioned by mods, positive search fails you hard. You could spam all tags but the ones you don't want ALL day, you'd quickly notice they(devs of games) also tags their games with other tags that you DO want to see.


I am tired of Visual Novels, Text Based and "Simulation" that is mostly just simulating words on top of a drawn background and person... so... a visual novel... just not tagged as one... and searching for 3D, Action, Adventure and whatever else still doesn't work as visual novels can have 3D backgrounds and characters. And the story can be one of action and/or adventure. Even tho that's not what the game genre itself means. Anyways, my point is: multiple tag exclusion is a must if people do not properly tag their games. Can't be having more action/adventure visual novels...

Maybe now that the new search feature is rolled out, site developers might have time for other projects.

My concern is, that a fully implemented multiple tag exclusion as seen on Steam (if you look for it) is not a trivial task to implement in the existing framework.

Personally, I have little use for the feature. I am an adult and can surf without ad blocker. If I can scroll past ads I do not care for, I can scroll past games I do not care for. The typical offenders, horror and visual novels, are also typically recogniseable at a glance. There is just too much inconsistency and disagreement about tag usage to rely on any filtering.
