Even 3 years ago it was decent. Normie, but decent.

Now we literally have a 40 dollar sticker pack for csgo in the top selling.

>>384568930
Blazblue and Farming Simulator on top sellers is not very mainstream. Fucking PUB is.

>>
>>384569103

All the top selling games are shit or boring or a fucking sticker pack.

I bought one of the Blazblue games and Xrd...some mega package that was like 12 euros.

What exactly is the problem?

You are triggered easily. No one forces you to eat any of this corporate garbage. Hell, why do you even care about what's in top selling? People who are outraged at some hung like this aren't much better than the people buying those products. Just ignore and move on.

There is no justifying the fact that there's a 40 dollar sticker pack in the top selling.

>>384569546

You don't see anything wrong with a 40 dollar sticker pack being in the top selling?

We've really gotten to a point where this is acceptable?
>>
>>384568783
>This is it? This is what PC gaming has become?

Post what you think should be the top 10 sellers according to your supposedly rarified taste.
>>
>>384569584

That's kinda the secondary point I'm making.

There really isn't any good games recently on PC. I can't recommend anything really. The most recent game I can recommend is Witcher 3 but that's like 3 years old.

>>384569575
It's probably faggots buying it to sell for a profit on the marketplace, earning Valve even more money in the process. Wouldn't surprise me either if it was pushed into the 'hot and popular' lists to gain advertising attention.

But what does corporate business practices have to do with PC gaming as a whole?
>>
>>384568783
- Quake Champions
- Mount & Blade 2: Bannerlord
- Mordhau
- Star Citizen
- Camelot Unchained
- Ashes of Creation
- Wild West Online
- Project Wight
- Scorn
- La-Mulana 2
- Ghost Song

>>384569762

Not a 40 dollar virtual sticker pack, that's for damn sure.

10 years ago people were outraged about 5 dollar horse armor in Oblivion.

Now we have literally 40 dollar virtual stickers and it's fine.

PC gaming is dead to me.

What other people spend their money on DOES affect you, though. When everyone buys macbooks, other computer manufacturers try to make their computers like macs. When everyone buys skyrim, other game makers try to make their games like skyrim. When everyone watches marvel movies, other studios try to follow suit with other cinematic universes.

Don't pretend that ever hasn't been the case. In the golden age of TF2, every game that offered TF2 items for preordering was always in the top seller list.

Twitch shit being popular doesn't make it actually good. DayZ Standalone also sold like hotcakes at first.

>>384570624
>That was fun posting, though.
About a week before release and till about a month after release the board would get spammed with Bioshock threads on a daily basis, with a lot of them looking like obvious marketing and often Bioshock discussion would spill over into other threads unrelated to it. Even if it was just anons rustling other anon's jimmies, it was still annoying as fuck.

Nobody's making you buy what other people play. Choices is all that matters and thanks to the huge library of steam there's always something that suit my taste, even if it's not the flavor of the month streamer shit.

Oh god don't remind me
I actually never touched the game back then due to how insane the marketing and praise was combined with the shitposting. I've played it last year and it's just an average game that was ok. It didn't do anything groundbreaking or amazing that warranted the praise and shitposting.
Here's to hoping that system shock 3 can save the shock dudes.

I used to buy a lot of games on steam.

Usually I would just go through new releases and watch every single game that got released. Used to be 5-10 a day max. So you could actually read the page of every game every day and pick the ones that you liked out of it.

Now the store is flooded with what feels to be thousands of games. And the "Best sellers" list isn't realiable either anymore.

I don't have the time to look through thousands of games to find the hidden gem I specifically would like to play according to my personal taste.

So what happened is that I just stopped buying things. I also play a lot less indie games. Simply because I can't choose what to play. I have no indication to know which games are good or bad and there are thousands of them.

In the end the oversupply and hard to discover games led me to just drop it altogether and only play 2-3 games a year now.

This is all steam's fault and they are actively pushing away people like me that used to buy 20-30 games a year and actually play and finish them.

You're acting like they care.

They're making BANK from new, younger users buying sticker packs and early access survival games.
