  • i would love for steam to have some competition. i will gladly switch over to the first competitor that has

    • a big picture / controller-friendly interface
    • controller configurator that
      • is more powerful than rewasd
      • is editable in the overlay
      • has import/exportable configs (incl. with the community)
      • supports the best controller i’ve ever used, the steam controller
    • cross-platform client
    • cross-platform cloud saves
    • workshop/modding support
    • proper reviews system
    • community page for each game
    • etc.

    and doesn’t

    • buy exclusivity rights to games
      • i don’t mind revenue deals for exclusivity, but buying existing games takes the biscuit
    • actively worsen existing games
      • e.g. removing the impeccable siapi support in rocket league, and making it run on the shitty epic servers so it disconnects all the time

    particularly now that steam has switched over to electron, so the client runs like shit

    i do sometimes use gog because i like their ideology, but they’re missing quite a few from this list. any gog or itch.io games i buy, i inevitably add to steam as a non-steam game. which adds a lot of these handy features, but not all

    unfortunately, until a competitor brings along something new to the table, i’m quite happy to wait and pay more for a game on steam. it just has too many features i can’t give up







  • It’s a grand idea to make an index, not only for better exposure, but I bet it also makes it easier for FNIC communities to handle potential problems in unity - if they want to.

    yeah, there is also a matrix space where i’m doing anything i can democratically as well

    I apologize for making assumptions. It is most definitely a good idea to not have the whole of Lemmies Imaginary communities depend on a single persons whims

    don’t apologise! (i did steal their naming convention as well)

    Though I’ve personally never had any beef with INE, we often see how bad such communities can end up.

    neither did i; but better safe than sorry and all that (also i just made !imaginarytrains@lemm.ee because nobody else would, and it’s just sort of snowballed from there - i didn’t know if people would have beef with me, so i don’t want to dictate what happens everywhere)
