If I had a wish for christmas from GabeN or Valve in general, it would be actually meaningful error messages from steam.
If I had two wishes, I would like a community tool to share configs to make games work that require tweaking.
But I’d be very happy if I got better error messages.
Over 6300 pages when you search for “woke”. And talk on the Steam forums using that word has made the forums unusable. Also talk about Steam charts for games where it doesn’t matter, but I’d blame live service developers for that more than Valve.
Between the anti-woke conspiracism and the outright racism, transphobia and general bigotry, I don’t know how anyone can use those forums for anything. Genuinely the most toxic and hate-filled forums I’ve ever used in my 30-odd years of internetting.
I look up game info on the steam forums several times a week, and I have found them significantly less contentious than lemmy. I don’t remember ever seeing a “woke” thread. I assume it’s because it’s largely contained to AAA games and I’m usually playing indie games?
In any case I think it’s an exaggeration to call them “unusable”.
It’s not a conspiracy, they really don’t like woke, see new Gears of War, Dragon Age, Concord, there’s no secret plot
If customers actually had a problem with however these morons define “woke”, The Odyssey, Barbie, and Baldur’s Gate 3 wouldn’t have made billions of dollars. And if you want to look to boogeymen for those three games failing (the first one is even subjective), it’s Game Pass, retrofitting a project into different designs twice, and being extremely late to the live service party.
You know woke is a good thing right? It has only been “weaponised” by bigots.
This user is a conservative and a transphobe. I tagged them as such months ago
Wait you can tag people on Lemmy? Is it like RES, or a built-in feature?
Several clients have the feature. Not sure if it’s supported by the Lemmy API itself or not but I know Boost, Voyager, and a few others have it.
I access Lemmy using sync on Android. You can tag people on the paid version.
You’re the most cisphobic and independophobic person on Lemmy (you’re tagged as both on the Independophobe Tracker ™, and also tagged as seculophobic and truthophobic)
Your tags are a badge of honor, if you agreed with me I’d be very sad and quite humiliated. I’d probably weep in shame
This comment means a lot. I’m glad a transphobe hates me
Irrelevant, the target audience doesn’t like it, and that’s who they must sell games to.
Explain the success of Baldur’s Gate 3 then. You just named three shitty games with shitty gameplay, shitty art and shitty writing.
