E4 is hard but fine, except for that second level which on top of being hard, you are absolutely not equipped to deal with when you start it.

Oh hey, I only just noticed, F1 2018 (my GOTY for last year) is free to play for the next couple of days, and it's 75% off until next week. If you were curious at all it's a perfect time to take a look.
Botp'd. It's celebrating the start of this year's season, by the way.
Random question, but has anyone played Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver recently and more importantly how? Keyboard? Controller? I feel like this game is probably awesome, but the controls are killing it for me.
Soul Reaver always makes me sad because the one GREAT version of it was the Dreamcast one. PC and PS1 versions were identical and not as good. It controls weird even on PS1

I'm not having any major complaints about Steam. The client is fucky sometimes and the mobile client is worse, but overall I'm pretty happy with it... What is it doing that's shitty and getting shittier?

I feel like their issues are with business practices and overall attitude towards consumers over capability of the client. Though I'm not sure of the current issues people might have with Steam/Valve, other than that it's become like most companies that park middle of the road and don't stand for anything nor do much other than, well, pull in money and operate on that money.

A complete lack of quality control has led to it being so hard to launch a game on Steam if you aren't a big, new studio that indie devs are abandoning it altogether.
A lot of people are blaming that on Epic paying for exclusives, and certainly there's some of that going on, but quite a number of indie devs have publicly said that it's too hard for your game to be seen on Steam (especially with the release date changing fuckery that's going on big time now) so it's just not worth launching on the platform at all.
Speaking purely as a user, I find it deeply frustrating that I effectively can't browse Steam to find interesting new games that I might not have heard about, because there's so much shovelware and poorly made crap (or flat-out asset flips) that it's impossible to find in a reasonable time frame. Although these days the bigger culprit is the porn games and visual novels that have turned out in huge numbers, which I have no way to filter out of my feed because they have inaccurate user tags and Steam's refusal to get some Actual Humans involved means that trying to filter by tag is a total waste of time.
Steam sucks, as a service. Epic is sketchy as fuck, as a service. Put everything on Origin!

If you're an indie dev and you're relying on the storefront (Steam or otherwise) to do your advertising for you, you need to go back to Marketing 101. That's like an author throwing up a book on Amazon and expecting it to sell like hotcakes without doing any kind of marketing elsewhere. It doesn't work that way for any product anywhere.

I'l be honest, the biggest reason I still use Steam is they have sales that are bigger than the other platforms. It costs me much, much less to game on Steam than any other platform, even with my usual technique of waiting a few years to buy a new game. And honestly, when your entertainment/game budget is as shoestring as the rest of the budget, "cheap games" is really my one and only concern. If I had more luxury to buy elsewhere, I might be more interested in going elsewhere.

Weird strawman to pick there. No one's asking for free advertising, they just expect a spot at the table at all if they're paying Valve to put their game on the service. Genuinely new games on Steam can't get a look in because unscrupulous devs repeatedly change the release date on years-old games and there's a weekly flood of dozens of games, many of which barely run, most of which are utter garbage, because Valve won't do even a bare minimum of curation to make sure they're releasing actual working products instead of trash.
And anyway, most of my complaint was directed at the experience as a user. Finding new games that you don't specifically know to look for is basically impossible now because Valve does no curation, no quality control, and no enforcement of accurate tagging and categorization. It didn't used to be this way, and it doesn't have to be, but Valve doesn't give a shit. So the storefront is utter crap as a result, and people are hungry for an alternative.
The client is fine, I guess, just like every other one of these clients, except it's 15 years old. Hard for me to give Valve credit for doing the bare goddamn minimum.

Yeah I mean lemme clarify, I have no issue with people using Steam. I get most of my games on Steam. They're still kind of the only game in town for a lot of things. But there are some very real issues with the storefront and the actual service they provide, and I think going "well Epic is worse because of their fucked up security" is being used to forgive a lot of Valve's nonsense.
Someone who can figure out how to launch a client that has the security and user features of Steam with the curation of Epic is poised to make a fucking killing.
Do you believe anyone is going to epic store and going "Oh yeah im only here for the curation" or are they going to the epic store because they literally can't purchase it anywhere else because all their choices have been bought out?
Someone with the client security and features of steam and the curation of epic wont even get a chance in hell of working because epic will simply buy out any developers wanting to sell there.

As long as it also provides the discounts Steam seems to be able to, and doesn't try to make exclusivity of games its one trick pony. I mean, Epic isn't really competition at this point. It's more like it's trying to be Origin than Steam. It's just going about it by taking games that were going to be on Steam by paying "enough", whatever that happens to be per dev.
And I don't specifically begrudge devs for wanting to be on Epic's launcher "because money". It'd just be more interesting to me if the practices of Epic had any chance of impacting Steam, because I really don't think they do. Hell, I'd bet money I don't have that most of their money comes from the Marketplace selling bits and bytes that cost very little to be made.

As for curation, et al, not everyone wants that. It's a problem for you and others, but it's not a universal problem. Some of us don't care if they curate or don't curate. And I'm much happier not having Valve arbitrarily decide that X content is bad but Z content is okay.

Does EGS have curation or just lack of numbers at the moment? I ask this in mostly good faith as i haven't been following things super closely.
69% of devs think Steam doesn't do enough to earn their 30%
That alone is very telling.
Also you don't even need to have an executable file to launch a game on steam.
I won't even go into the whole Rape Day thing.
There are a lot of serious issues with steam, very well documented and argued. Any one who's curious to know why steam's getting shittier, it's very easy to find out.

What did you expect, entertainment industry is hard. Movies and music are no different, a lot of low quality content and quite a few gems remain unnoticed.
Still I don't see how this is steam's fault. By the way all the indies rushing to Epic store first made it big elsewhere - including steam and some of them only because of steam. If maybe you're aware of some unknown indie dev that nobody had a clue about and was picked up and saved by Epic let me know.
You can stream your PC games to your Xbox One now if you have one. Yes, that includes Steam games. Apparently it only works via wifi, which is odd, but still. Pretty neat!
The streaming from Xbox One to Windows 10 already worked surprisingly well, so now you can go the other way around! I haven't tried it out yet but I'll obviously have to.
I'm all for Toady taking DF commercial, but if he brings it to Steam with the current UI, it is going to get slaughtered in the reviews - and he'll deserve it.
Even looking past how obtuse doing something as simple as setting up infirmary is, the squad management is offensively bad.
