One of those art school kids only capable of making visual novels about how sad they are should make a game capturing the experience of following a promising greenlight game for months only to have the updates just abruptly stop with no notice.

Making games is hard, I bet!

Our internal thinking beforehand had us hovering around the $500 mark, but the community conversation really challenged us to justify why the fee wasn't as low as possible, and to think about what we could do to make a low fee work.
many actual developers ive seen voiced 500 as the reasonable one, but it seems community of poopy stained diaper wearing babbys convinced valve otherwise. I wonder if Lord Gaben also gonna lick his peepee and post pictures like they say.
curators are useless trash, dont know why they put emphasis on it, maybe to appease some reviewer people ego.
no word on content control, thats the most important part. Can stolen copyrighted stuff, rootkits or stuff like Tranny Gladiator pass? Thats arguably the most important part.

is there a term for when a cemented monopoly position allows a company to repeatedly do things incompetently?

if they use visibility as deciding factor, then its basically becomes a mobile store. More clones with confusing names and traffic buying on PC if its the case.
Would recommend you setup your bot traffic factory right now to get into the bubble.

it's not really incompetent, right? It's just deeply destructive over the long term. But if valve continues making capital now they don't really have to care.

I dont understand the point of curators. If you care what [famous youtube personality] thinks of a game, you're probably already subscribed to their youtube channel anyway. Other than that the curators are mostly meme/joke stuff.

Which is a shame.

Similar to Curators I'd like to see "Developer Favorites" or "Developers this Developer is Following" like how https://paom.com/designer/smestorp/following does it.

Back on the topic of Curators though, that sucks. Because I think there's room for personalities to develop around specific genres eghttps://boardgamegeek.com/boardgamepodcast/24570/20-minutes-filler-podcast they review "quick boardgames in portable boxes" - every episode they discuss at least 1 of those or interview one of their creators. I'm interested in this genre and listen to their podcast.

You could have the same thing for say, 2D metroidvanias, or artsy puzzle games, etc. But since there are tons of 2D metroidvanias made every day (thanks forums.tigsource.com), a curator who wades through the crap could be helpful for a fan.

It's hard to fight convenience. Just about everyone's on Steam because just about everyone's on steam :/
