This
These are all bot threads. Just ignore them in their entirety.

Wonder if they'll get to Russia.

Link? i don't know who this man is.

Ignoring them isn't the solution. Getting rid of them is the solution. People still get baited because they don't spend too much time here and will react the first time they see the thread. They don't know it's the fucking 50th time it's been posted that day unless people speak up. Moderators won't take action to actually stop it unless people report them en masse. Ignoring them is literally the worst solution.

Sorry whitoid, this is an asian board

If people don't want to talk about it it'll get deleted after a while. That's how this forum works. It's why we don't have up votes and down votes.

I posted this in another thread about epic games store, I'll post it again:

the amount of seething steam fanboys in this thread is fucking astounding
if devs decide to switch over to EGS because of their 12% share, as opposed to Steam's 30% share (which some are doing already), then Steam is royally fucked.
no amount of UI updates to Steam is going change the fact that devs get more $ per sale for the same price on EGS than they do on Steam

and the best part is, it's good for customers in the long run, because a lower cut per sale allows the developers/publishers to sell the same product at a lower price. kind of like it was with Metro: Exodus. in the US it was sold for $60 on Steam, but on EGS it sells for $50. despite the $10 reduction in price, the publisher still gets $2 more per sale ($44 vs $42 respectively).

and in the end, how much are you more likely to spend on the same game, $60 or $50?
yeah. $50. thought so.

the only way Steam can stop this inevitable switch of devs over to a platform that leaves them with more money is if they decrease their share % from the current 30% to somewhere close to EGS 12%.
I know I'm putting my game on EGS when it becomes available to all developers and selling it there for $8, instead of the current $10 on Steam, just because the lower cut per sale will allow me to do so.

0.01 Canadian dollars were added to your account. God bless Mao and Winnie the Pooh.

Don't try to talk to me about how this fucking place works, retard. It's not a forum. Saging exists. Nothing is the reason it doesn't have a voting system because that was never part of this fucking imageboard. Keep your ignorant newfag tourist mouth shut. Ignoring spamming allows the spamming to continue. It's not a fucking solution. Get that through your braindead skull.

Yea Forums is a forum though

Continually talking about a subject isn't spamming.

I FUCKIN' LOVE STEAM

we saw a similar reaction back when EA made Origin: fanboys used any excuse to shit on it just because Battlefield 3 wasn't coming to Steam.
it ranged from "anti-consumer practices" to "malware", to "spying on you", to anything else under the sun just to shit on them.
did it work in the end? fuck no. 90% of the same people that boycotted Origin went, bought Battlefield 3, and happily played it.

the only thing Steam has going for it in terms of deterring people from switching over to competing platforms is emotional attachment.
you might ask, how are people emotionally attached to Steam? it's simple, people spent money on Steam:
1. they bought games on Steam
2. they spent money on their useless fucking Steam level

Valve either knew what they were doing in advance when they added these Steam levels (increase emotional attachment, thereby ensuring more fanboys), or they just added it to make more money.
either way, it worked to a degree in getting people to prefer Steam over competing platforms.

HOWEVER, when a competitor with a big enough mindshare comes along, all of that goes out the window, because absolutely NOTHING is going to make up for something like a much lower share cut.
whether you like it or not, EGS coming along and stirring up this much shit is a GOOD thing. because for us, developers (especially indie devs), it will hopefully mean a lower cut per sale.
and to you, the customers, it means a lower price for the same game. (not every dev will lower the price of their game(s), of course, but there will be many cases of lower prices for the same games on EGS than on Steam)

in the end, this competition is a win/win to both sides. except for Steam, now they have to decrease their cut per sale, or eventually their 30% cut per sale source of income will dry up and they will be forced to either make games again (half-life 3, wink wink) or decrease their cut per sale, or both!

Who's this mouth breather?

I don't intend to install epic game store, they can get fucked for what I care, but I this "competition" makes valve get off their fat asses to make actual games again I'd be pretty happy

how many days do I need to filter until this whole thing dies off
I swear I had 15 threads of EPIC filtered

But they already are user. Soon we'll all be able to play their new VR experience.

Too bad gookmoot and his cronies don't care about this board and would rather let these endless bot reposts bump every other decent thread down. Even non-vidya is preferable at this point
