Opinion: RPG Maker devs hurt the most by Steam tag changes

Valve's recent changes to Steam's tagging system, which removed engine-specific tags like RPG Maker, are detrimental to developers and fans of games made with these tools. While some tag removals are understandable, eliminating RPG Maker hinders discoverability for niche titles and creative uses of the engine beyond traditional JRPGs. Despite a workaround via SteamDB, the change negatively impacts enthusiasts seeking to find games made with specific development tools.
