I like the idea, but I think it would greatly benefit from an exclude option on tags. If I go to the "Action Rogue-Like" genre, one of the tags I can narrow it down with is "Difficult", which then limits the list to only difficult games. It would be nice if I could instead exclude "Difficult" and be left with easier titles. I can technically do this by going into search and activating the "Action Rogue-Like" and "Casual" tags together as a workaround, but it's not exactly the same, and I think it goes against the spirit of what they want with this new library surfing since that only happens in the search page and not on their landing pages specifically.
