Desperate times calls for desperate faggot measures that in the past 3 years should have told you, No matter the compnay, person, leader. They will go to new lows to them boomer bux
>literally who

I can't stand retards like you. I'm absolutely positive you're some white cunt, fuck off.
No, because curating is an inherently subjective process, and depending on who the curator is, you may end up with curated game that are garbage to you, but not to the curator, hence the need of further review by consumer. Additionally, if the curating process is run by the plateform itself, there's a change that it will accept to push garbage game just because they're profitable, hoping to get tons of money without real repercussion, since user review are not allowed. People will think it's a "curated" (therfore good) game and will feel cheated. Also, you may miss some games that would be gem to you but are deemed as not worthy by the cueator bur that's a minor concern that is not relevant with the point of user review.
I don't even think the EGS is muh evil and should be biycotted more than syeam, btw, i just think Randy's opinion is garbage as usual.
Based and bitchfordpilled
YIKES
Fuck off Randy
>Same time to the fucking second
Now post yfw you're not Randy Pitchford
Nice bait
That's how I know you're a fucking retard, "curatoring" is a process or a myth, made up by faggots like you who try to control the way people think about video games. The reason for reviews, the discussion boards, trouble shooting, updating prcocess and the way they are handle, along with workshop, steam itself. Allows for people to find the content they want, no matter how flooded it is, Their is a market for anyone, No matter how bad or good, how triple AAA, or indie shit. Theirs content for the context.
BUT YOU MOTHER FUCKERS, don't like that at all. You don't like the idea if that a published or developer does wrong doing, that it should hurt its past sales? That if our words are held accountable? Why shouldn't be theirs? Steam gives that platfrom to show that you're opinion and money matters. And that's why the don't like it. Because Steam is the open market.
I actually like garbage software and find it more interesting to play over a lot of triple AAA titles
the shittier and more low budget a game is the more likely I am to play it because I may be having a lot of fun for all the wrong reasons
Randy is right on those last two sentences but his conduct remains very unprofessional and I am not sure why he hasn't been black listed from the industry for his dealings with sega or just straight up sexually harassing underage women and playing it off as a magic trick
>Gearbox
Who?
Me too. Any product that disrespects Gamers, by censoring cunny, or interfering with review bombs, or punishing people who disrespect the admins, should be removed from the store.
Only products that respect a Gamer's fundamental rights to disrespect 3d women and minorities should be allowed.
Sadly no store like this exists, so I have to settle for all the Muh Freeze Peach faggots.
>studio known for massive fuckups such as duke nukem forever, alien colonial marines, battleborn and many others
Wow user we should really listen to his opinion then.
>Hasn't made anything relevant since 2012
>Thinks he can talk about garbage software
lets not be exclusive user. i want the right to disrespect everyone.
including you ya fat piece of shit
Why isn’t this retard in jail yet?
>>possibly the most influential developer and artist of our time
That would be Shiggy Diggy and his bucket of ninTendies.
In the west, that would probably be GabeN, whose completely bullshit games-as-service model that held CS 1.6 hostage was, sadly, worth the weight.
I do not encounter shovelware on steam at all.
I understand and fully respect your right to disrespect me, as nobody 3d should be respected.
>2 screenshots
>of the same tweet
What is wrong with you?
Why do you have two of the same screenshot with two different parts of the tweet highlighted?
hes not tho you see what you search for fag and if you think epic will do anything different then i hope you too get pounds of cash shoveled into your pocket like randy
>I want companies to decide for me what games are good
>having more choices is bad, and the option to filter what I want is too complicated
If that's what you want, but why not just buy a console at that point?
Why would a game company care about this?
Of course he wants less competition the fuck wit
I dunno, I care about this.
If I were a game company then a game company would care about this for the same reason.
Right about what? That that is his opinion? Why would I care about what a faggot's opinion is?
How is he right? Amazon is the most popular online retailer site in the West by far, seems like that's the way to go.
Because if he's WRONG then that means you get to mock him.
Amazon is heavily curated. Can't get The Culture of Critique. Can't get Learned Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Can't get any books debunking the holohoax.
Fuck Amazon.
valve allowing any garbage on steam is a massive bonus. easiest example would be undertale, as that shit would never get on old steam.
also the epic hate is a big circlejerk eat dick nerds
>Anyone could make a PC game in 1999
>Anyone can make a Steam game now
>Epic thinks people are angry about this for some reason
>When the next Undertale happens and they reject it as a "shitty indie game" they get to kick themselves forever
This is so fucking dumb
I don't think you understand what "heavily curated" means, not that I would expect anyone as stupid as you to understand anything.
His publisher are betting his game on the epic horse for a guaranteed win and now he has to tow the party line. And he’s Randy so he doesn’t mind the piss gurgling.
>Amazon is heavily curated.
are you joking? any third party literally who can sell trash on it.
Epic is allowing garbage on their store, its called BL3
Obviously the curation could be heavier, but the curation is already too heavy.
Fuck it.
Dong ding!
whatever curation amazon uses is nonexistent. there is knock off shit being sold on it all the time.
Gorgeous
They use extremely minimal curation, people report items and then they are removed if they generate significant amounts of bad press or if it's illegal. Even "illegal" in the sense that it's a counterfeit product are allowed, despite reports against the product.
>They use extremely minimal curation, except when it's bad press
Yeah nah.
Show me an example then, the one you linked from OneAngryIncel was due to bad press.
I mean what's next, you going to say that Twitter only have very light moderation?
L o l
Look man I can literally SEE books that were for sale on Amazon on internet archive and now they aren't. Multiple books.
And have a late-80's/early-90's Nintendo situation where you have to jump through a bunch of shitty hoops and bow to their every whim just to get your game sold?
No fucking thank you, take your censorship and shove it right back in your fucking dick where it belongs.
The Steam store may have a lot of shit floating around in it but the shit still sinks to the bottom and the good stuff still floats to the top.
I thought Yea Forums was a bunch of free market libertarian retards? I thought openness and freedom bred innovation and whatever the fuck?
>allow everything
good
>curation
bad
fuck your opinions
>one angry incel
Find a source that isn't clickbait
My point is that it's not "extremely minimal curation" if they're literally removing books.
Cmon son.
The moderation is heavy enough and it's time to stop making excuses for it. ... Or say "Yes it's a heavily curated store and I like that" if you're into it I suppose.
And there go the goalposts
Except you stated that it was heavily curated, you dumb fuck. Do you understand what those words mean? Heavily curated would be a store that specializes in certain products and has high standards for products. Are you going to tell me that AliExpress is "heavily curated" because they don't sell pro-Nazi paraphernalia?
>I CLAIM THAT X
>that's stupid
>x is true because I said so
>get a source
>MOVING GOALPOSTS!
>Are you going to tell me that AliExpress is "heavily curated" because they don't sell pro-Nazi paraphernalia?
Yes.
Fuck AliExpress.
Good argument bro, I gave you a source.
Miyamato? Miyazaki? The Doom team?
amazon has no curation dummy. they don't enforce anything because they collect a cut of ALL sales so they don't give a shit. its been going for years especially with shoes. and the kicker is everyone else is doing it too. walmart is open to third party shit, newegg is open to third party shit, and of course the mother of all: ebay. amazon gets away with it because they have a convenient loophole where they can identify only as the platform from which to sell and they're not the actual seller. so everyone else jumped on the third party bandwagon and now its just stores and stores of shit. it only this year that amazon finally acknowledged counterfeit good being a risk factor in their earning reports.
I'm pretty sure no AAA publishers are losing any sales by being on the same market platform as garbage bin games.
I dunno, they might be.
Well, maybe. Do many confused grandmothers use Steam to gift games?
The world is our containment board
further reminder amazon hardly even sells anything themselves. over half of their transactions are third party.
Why is he so aggressive in his defense of of the Epic Store? Prominent people should have some sense of good manners, and publicly shitting on Steam, a platform that is largely responsible for the success of PC gaming, is not good for business. We can talk about this like adults without resorting to throwing shit at each other. Also, am I the only one who has never had a problem with these "garbage games"? If you follow vidya at least a bit, you'll know what's bad and what's not.
most likely because he lied in his tweets about this not being his decision
this is probably most likely his decision and now he's salty about how the internet is calling out how stupid his decision is
>Prominent people should have some sense of good manners
...but they often don't.
If EGS curation is good why did they allowed BL on their store?
>Why is he so aggressive in his defense of of the Epic Store?
because he took the money.
randy was playing innocent saying he has no say and he's "just the talent" now he's just pushing same false narrative we see here every day.
>I want censorship and only what -I- want to see be available to people! My personal opinions are the only thing that matter and everyone else must bow down to MY wants and demands!
How about no, you egotistical faggot? How about you go back to working on some more failures and keep your mouth shut.
BIG BUDGET SOULLESS AAA SHIT GOOD
INDIE GAME BAD
>Are you going to tell me that AliExpress is "heavily curated" because they don't sell pro-Nazi paraphernalia?
Of course he will, because he's a Nazi himself.
WE WANT THEEE TOTALITARRRRIAN STORRRRE!
AAAAH!!! ZE GERMANS ARRR RRRRIGGHHHTOO
My recomendations only turn to junk for a while when I’ve added filler games from bundles and run them for the cards.
I imagine the algorithm is completely broken for people like Jim Sterling using old press accounts with access to every game in the store up to some point, and constantly logging playtime in the bottom scrapings.
This
But steam is the only one between the two that actually has anything resembling curators. Hell, they're not even store page review posting monkeys like review bombers. The program that steam has is literally labelled "steam curators". That's literally what Randybobandy wants.
>you will live to see a future where steam has nothing but small-time indie titles and porn while the AAA releases are epic exclusives
nearly any garbage, like battleborn
This guy should just delete his twitter desu, he:s an idiot
Holy shit. It’s been a long fucking time since I have seen a genuine hivemind moment. I think I might shed a tear.
So is he scared of the shitty games on steam stealing players away from his shitty games?
>compares Valve to the most successful online-retailer to ever exist in the west
>in an attempt to make Valve look bad
Classic Randers Bobanders.
so?
is he using amazon?
does he want amazon to start curating items too?
