[Feature Request] Hide Early Access games in search #815

Closed scowalt closed 4 years ago

Add it to this section: image

Context: I generally like to wait until games are out of Early Access to play them. I would love the ability to filter out all of the games that aren't finished yet when I'm looking for things to play.

That depends on the user tag "Early Access". Not every Early Access game will get the user tag "Early Access" (For example, Mechanica) Also, when a game leaves Early Access, the "Early Access" user tag isn't removed. (Example: Wreckfest).

Therefore, filtering by the user tag will have both false positives and false negatives, which makes it unreliable.

I suppose you can use this with AS enabled then: 註解 2020-03-20 234129

Also if you're interested, this feature works by searching for a match in the element's ds-tagids dataset property (493 = early access): 註解 2020-03-20 221221 which is information provided by Steam, so I have no idea why their native implementation can somehow be "unreliable". You might want to post about this on the steamlabs discussions.

Turns out there're quite a few outliers... https://store.steampowered.com/search/?sort_by=Released_DESC&untags=493&genre=Early+Access

@candela97 This array contains the tag ids of the most popular user defined tags. So this is not something that Steam / the devs have any control over
