So steam has this tag system which lets you include user added tags. Apparently a tag needs to be used enough times before it is in the system as something that is displayed to others and can be searched etc. I want pocprotagonist (and wocprotagonist but that’ll be even harder) to be large enough to be an “official” english tag on steam.
1. need to list all of the current games on steam with poc protagonists and tag them as such and encourage others to do so(point of this post).
2. Encourage folks to make more games that would fit this tag.
For the point of this list I am taking all games regardless of quality to get the tag on steam started. Once it is official and searchable can maybe pare away games that are bad/stereotypical representation or maybe start a separate steam tag for that to warn folks about such.
This is the initial list from facebook I just copied entries people have stated and am pasting them here. as energy and time allows I will format this to be nicer but want to do the first step and get it out there:
