Honestly I just watch streamers like Cohhcarnage or Lirik as they pretty much only play new and indie games and they tend to give honest opinions on what they play. Literally just bought an indie game today after watching Lirik play it.

For multiplayer, look at Steam charts for most active players. Any of the top 20+ games are probably worth playing, even if old.

I recently got into The Division 2 and that’s YEARS old. There isn’t much multiplayer until you reach endgame (very quick for essentially an MMO) but then there’s a decent community still.

I’ve been playing Gamedle recently. I tend to discover interesting games both as answers and while researching the info I have.

Steam’s discovery queue is a great source for finding new games. It shows you a list of games based on the games you own and never repeats itself.

Mine is pretty useless. I have 4 hours of playtime on CSGO from 10 years ago and it thinks I want more FPS.

Manually checking out the similar games section of the ones I do play has been a lot better personally.

Edit: not to say discovery queue isn’t good, just that the similar section is another good option

I look at sales. steamdb, isthereanydeal etc. And if something stands out, I look for details.

Steam frontpage, twitch streamers I watch and sometimes word of mouth.

I’ve been listening to the NoClip Crew cast podcast - they mostly talk about games they’ve been playing recently and after a few sessions you can really grok the types of games everyone on the pod enjoys. That mostly matches up with my play style, so it works nicely.

As an added bonus, they tend to highlight more independent/smaller game studios.
