I need some information of games released during 2018-2023 for my research. I got more than 30,000 games with my filters but I can only "Export first 2,500 results as CSV or JSON". How could I download all of the 30,000 games?

I am not an admin, and it is possible I don't know something, still, I think, it is precisely the idea you can't download data about thousands of games automatically and you should browse them online.

I think this is exactly researching, to examine sources.

Oh, downloading extreme amounts of data seems to be an intended possibility for pro users, sorry then for claiming it shouldn't be done.

First tip: maybe if you sort data differently, those 2500 games to download will be different? But then you would have to merge different downloads, so perhaps it's a bad idea.

Gotta go to the post-office and receive snail mail (i.e. traditional mail, in an envelope, really).

I don't have time but I will gladly try to help anyway, catch me later.
