I have been thinking about some checkbox at giveaway creation to mark if game is VR only. Then these games could be filtered in settings by such option in setting same as we can filter by supported OS. Not sure if it can take VRs directly from steam.
Same could be actually used for softwares.
I usually just put all to my hide list, but it would save me time to checking if game would interest me or not.

Would you use such feature?

There is the "VR Only" tag on Steam so maybe somehow SteamGifts could snatch that? Filtering games by feature could be a pretty interesting feature... That's complicated but I believe that is unnecessary to an extent, if there was somehow a way to copy every feature from the Steam page to SteamGifts somehow and automatically apply them that would be cool, but how would you do that for unlisted games and such?

Who knows, these are just some of my thoughts.

Sure...
But I would sooner see this concept implemented for sex-themed games.
The porno here makes me hesitant to refer this site to others.

Once the structure were in place, it should be easy to have different checkboxes both in GA creation and in user filters.

Yeah, possibility to mark 18+ games would also be great. But I guess problem would still be there as not every creator would mark games by right checkboxes 🤔

Both filters would be excellent indeed. Sex themed games are easy to spot, and often pretty sad to even see in the feed but since the VR devs decided to stop adding "VR" to the title of their games (possibly in the hopes of fooling buyers), it's become a lot of checking on Steam.

I know, right? I installed Enhanced Steam just to get a more visible VR headset needed warning because of this

Yes, so that I can more easily find VR games to enter giveaways for
I'm not so picky with VR games as I am with standard games, the dumbest concept can make a fun VR game compared to a standard game

Yeah absolutely.

I love VR games and am always looking for new ones. And it's a shame when you see a few thousand people entered into a VR game draw, knowing that most likely the winner won't have a headset so it will just sit in their library unplayed forever.

I'd love the option but would use it the other way around.
It would help me find VR-games that perhaps wouldn't be won by someone who doesn't own a VR set.

I have a VR head set so such a filter would allow me to search for VR giveaways specifically. I'd support a Hentai filter too. But experiencing cg's restless strife to improve the site for years I'm not very optimistic to see it happen in this century.

There's a tampermonkey script for blocking nsfw games, could they make one for vr?
