Do you know what I think the #gaming world needs?
Better curated marketplaces. All the main marketplaces #Steam, #Xbox, #Nintendo, #PlayStation, and the #mobile ones are full of #shovelware. There needs to be a view (possibly the default view) with quality, curated stuff that you can rely on being a masterpiece created with real love and not just a crappy game.
And I don’t just mean AAA games (those often are crappy), I mean a list of works of art.
PS: I’ve been using the Steam store a lot because of #SteamDeck and wow! It’s terrible what makes it in there.
@gpowerf Funny enough, quite a few video game mod/fan game submission sites have pretty much exactly this sort of curation, and are far stricter than any professional marketplace.
For instance, SMW Central is pretty brutal about it, and staff will literally play through the entirety of every hand submitted, and reject it based on poor level design, too many bugs, visual inconsistencies, difficulty spikes, etc.
But I’m not sure game devs would want Nintendo or Valve to do this.
@CM30 game devs would hate for Valve to do this. Valve seems to be all about selling games no matter what... Doing a bit of searching it does seem they have banned at least one game, a game about R***!!!
