Steam

| Was it a mistake?


| Humanity was a mistake.


| I was a mistake


| We were all mistakes.


| shrek how ever wasn't :3


| The universe was a mistake


| Steam wasn't a mistake, Valve's lack of progress and innovation on the platform is the large mistake.


| Agreed. They should have at least tried to modify their gaming platform a little bit. It's not like Steam is a complete trash, but still...


| Xbox Live Gold Subscription was a mistake.


| Steam accepts my local currency through multiple payments method and lowers the price to suit the low economic reality here. It near single-handedly push PC game piracy into obscurity.

So no, I can't in good conscience say Steam is anything but the best thing that has happened to PC gaming


| >>99907 yeah. I totally agree. Until something better comes around. I'll be using steam.


| True, but it needs some severe overhauling. The game library needs to be able to be filtered by typing in a tag/category name (ie single player, co-op, etc) rather than only the games name. The same goes for filtering down games when comparing your own games against someone else's.


| theres a steam app on android, what does it do?


| >>100080 it's mostly for 2 factor authentication, which they call Steam Guard. You can also buy stuff from the store, manage your inventory, chat, and that's about it. It'll nag you every now and then letting you know that games on your wish list are on sale. Can't install any games or the like on your phone.


| >>100111 Downloading smartphone apps through Steam might be implemented in the future but I doubt it. Play Store and Appstore are well established by now, so it'll be hard for Steam to compete with them


| Suddlenly Tera was removed from my library, now I'm sacred of that happening to future games I want to buy...


| I best not say how many games I have on it if you feel like that


| >>99927
Idk not being able to look for new games there seem like not that big a deal. Then again Steam for me has always been just a place to buy games I already know about


| >>99618
What progress and innovation should Steam be working on, mr. program manager?


| >>99618
Not Steam, rather Valve.


| >>100736 mostly quality of life features similar to what I had posted originally. Maybe severe was the wrong word for it but I shouldn't have to resort to using third party sites for sorting and filtering games. They have added in lots of neat things(in home game streaming, twitch like streaming, steam groups, easy game invites, game gifting, etc) but most of it feels like it's been tacked on as a bullet point on a feature list and it needs further refinement.
