Guess what?
You can add your own tags to games on the games store page.

But remember anything inappropriate or outright insulting will end up removed.

Tags to identify slop

Given the rise of unremarkable games on this decade, I propose steam adds new tags for players to select when rating them and warn other players.

Some current examples rising in popularity:

• Friendslop: The kind of game that you play with your friends for a week, then gets boring and you drop it forever.
  
• Retroslop: Kinda self explanatory. Games with little to show other than their retro asthetic.
  
• AI slop: Well known already. When a game mostly made with AI has no redeeming qualities.
  
• Corporate slop: Forgetable content done by a company who maximized profits by developing with near-zero budget, almost slave labor, or both. This one is more popular in non-game media, but it can definitely fit here.

Steam already has a system for players to select tags that they want to see applied to a game on their respective store pages. This would be an interesting addition.

Think of a better word than slop.

Valve actively removes/blocks tags that might cost sales or make publishers pissy

things like DRM, different launcher and/or account required, pointing out that redshell spyware/analytics software a few years ago, Shovelware.

引用自 Tito Shivan：

Steam isn't going to let negative tags fly.
Besides I find most of those tags rather subjective to begin with.

One person's trash is another person's treasure.

HOW ABOUT NOT BEING SO SALTY ABOUT SLOP?

If Steam allowed users to use negative tags like slop they would lose out on Sales so it's unlikely they would let you use this tag.

Asking the merchant to help you in identifying low quality goods the merchants sell to the masses (and in turn import more masses into the customer base to sell to rather than have to meet the standards the discerning clientele) is a bit like asking the fox to help with guarding the henhouse.

I find few people actually live by this and it is shockingly easy to find, in people who say this cliche, games they themselves feel are irredeemable trash that can never be treasure.

What they block are obscene tags and they do remove tags that are reported by players and the developers as being misleading.

If you want to call a game slop, buy it, play it and leave a review.
