I just took a look at the store page and I see tons of games that look interesting to me that I had never heard of before.

My memory of the previous steam store was that it would be the same AAA games and popular indie titles over and over. Stuff that I had heard of and didn’t want to play, or stuff that was already on my wishlist. I would generally find out about new games from outside of steam.

So this seems like a really good improvement, and I love the personal release calendar too. This looks like a really good way to surface games that may otherwise have gone unnoticed.
