Bring Back Highest Rated Games as a Primary Category in Microsoft Store

The new Microsoft Store made one change that really, really does not sit well with me.

Many people will remember the several years, if not half a decade, of the games category that Witcher 3 secured itself as the top game in the list. If you were a Microsoft store commoner, you remember seeing this game featured on the store front 100% of the time for what is and should be the number one category for all developers to strive for.

This category is now very hard to find. It is not in the primary search list. You have New Games, Top Paid Games, Games Coming Soon, and Most Played - but no Highest Rated list. This is a severe flaw with the new store. I want to be able to sort the store by games with the highest average stars. Let me be clear: Call of Duty does not deserve a spot on my store list. I'm sick and tired of highest paid games getting the treatment that highest rated games deserve. Ultimately, the highest rated games being listed will lead to them getting higher paid ratings, and that's how it should be - but that cannot happen if they are not a featured category in the store.

Once the category is clicked, you can begin sorting the highest rated games into genre lists, indie developers of quality games will probably be the biggest beneficiaries to this change and they deserve a spot like this if their game is 4+ stars. Your highest paid games list is at least 50% dog crap. Lets be honest.
