|
 |
So this is pretty awesome and glad they decided to impliment this especially since Unepic never made it to steam since it was denied. Now we have a bigger voice. I can also see multiple threads being made about different games related to Greenlight so here's the official page for it.
| Quote: | | We may not be the bigshot in the executive leather chair who gets to decide which games are made and which get dumped, but we can now at least have a say in which get on the Steam store. Which is essentially the same thing to that weird and confusing small number of people who only buy games on Steam. Valve today launched Steam Greenlight, letting user votes decide which games get on Steam. |

In the case of unEpic, Valve still has final veto power don't they? Even if 10,000 people vote "Yes!" to putting a Greenlight title on the Steam marketplace, Valve can still say no  I really do hope unEpic gets put on Greenlight and I hope it makes it, I really do, the game is marvellous and now that the "infringing" elements have been altered and/or renamed, let's hope it actually sticks this time!
Sadly I think Valve needs to start handing out some seriously harsh penalties to people abusing the service. Already people are "adding" games that they don't own, or games that don't exist, or even racist and offensive bullshit ... and all Valve does, at the moment, is simply delete the submission when people report it. I really think they need to start sending out a message that abusing the service won't be tolerated, I'd personally ban abusers from accessing or using the Greenlight service. It's also incredibly irritating to read posts from people who whine about the graphics or controls of certain titles, down voting games for the most petty and childish of reasons :\ If you don't like a game, move on, but actively down voting because you dislike the art style? That's just wrong and it's really going to be a huge detriment to people getting their games on Steam.

Sin317-"im 31 years old and still surprised at how much shit comes out of my ass actually ..."
SteamDRM-"Call of Duty is the symbol of the true perfection in every aspect. Call of Duty games are like Mozart's/Beethoven's symphonies"
deadpoetic-"are you new to the cyberspace?"

Well it's new bud. Valve is valve, you know they aren't going to tolerate it as well as there being a report button so it'll be taken care of. |

I'm just getting old mate, the childish trolling is just irritating and I don't see the "lulz" side of it. Oh well.
Anyhow, here's a sombering thought

Project Zomboid. Only 4% of the required positive votes obtained so far, despite being favourite'd almost six thousand times -- and god knows how many upvotes from people that didn't favourite? Wow. I reckon Greenlight is going to be one hell of a slog for indie devs.

His own personal opinion that he hates pixel art games. Which is what greenlight is about, people voting what they want on Steam. I think it's personally stupid but who am I say to say what he's allowed to vote for and not.

Personally I think that Gemini Rue wouldn't be as good in any graphic style other than pixel art, and Gemini Rue is probably in my top 5 adventure games ever made.

Indie development isn't about making games pretty and attractive. It has nothing to do with being lazy. It has all to do with time constraint on a team that only has few people who want to see their game see light of day. Instead of graphics to lead in the mindless zombies of gaming, they choose innovation and gameplay. Sales speak for themselves, Terraria, Starbound (coming soon) Minecraft. You don't need graphics for an awesome game to be awesome which is why I support so many of these pixel art games.
However that's my opinion and I'll upvote every pixel art game I see to counter your downvote.

And this, this so effing hard that it hurts my brain. Gemni Rue was fucking awesome. Update the graphics? It wouldn't have been as pleasing. |

Well, I'm sure Valve is keeping an eye on this. They aren't dumb. Gabe is a nerd and a computer nerd at that. He knows about 4chan and reddit. He knows what's at stake. I highly doubt he'll take trolling lightly.
Especially since you have to be logged in to vote.

Ah so I'm a hipster because I'm not dumb enough to fall for pretty graphics. Some of us like story and gameplay over developers spending 4 years working on graphics because that's all people want anymore.
That's ok though, we have enough games to cover everyone's style. Go play Crysis.

Actually they already started banning people, only 1 day bans so far, but probably with repeated offences people will be banned forever.

Yeah. The whole UI needs work. However in my case, the only game I rated so far, Syder Arcade, does not show up in "games to rate" list anymore.
Either way, I love this whole concept. Good for the devs and great for me. It's really fun looking through the list searching for gems I would otherwise never hear of. Reminds me of the first time XBLA added community games, or whatever they call them.

Down voting is good for Valve, it shows them games that people definitely won't buy.
Ryzen 5 5600, ASUS ROG STRIX B550-F GAMING WIFI II, Corsair Vengeance RGB RT 32GB 3600MHz C16, Zotac RTX 3060 Ti, Corsair RMx Series RM750x. AOC AGON AG324UX - 4K 144Hz 1ms GTG IPS FreeSync KVM
