GillyGumbo Link ParentI feel like a joke that didn't contribute would be listed as noise, anyway. so you could probably just filter noise to leave the jokes that contribute.I feel like a joke that didn't contribute would be listed as noise, anyway. so you could probably just filter noise to leave the jokes that contribute.

Comment on Hey ~games, how do we feel about Active Shooter? in ~games
GillyGumbo LinkI think the best strategy relating to stuff like this is to be pretty hands-off. Sure he had the right to make it - just like everyone else has the right to avoid it.

just like everyone else has the right to avoid it.But Steam also has the right to not sell the product - they're a private storefront and have the right to curate what is available in that store. There are plenty of other online storefronts on which to sell things. Maybe a storefront that sells literally anything is in demand enough for someone to move in on the market.

Microsoft has been doing this more recently with their windows releases. Wish sony would follow suit. For example, I HAVE a ps4, but I don't even want to buy God of War for it because I'd rather play games on my PC (with better visual fidelity, control device freedoms, etc)

Many RPGs (The Gallery ep1 and 2, Vanishing Realms, etc) and FPS (Sairento, Superhot, etc) games on VR use unique VR techniques to make the gameplay feel very rewarding.

Also, Gabe has stated that: “When I say we’re building three games, we’re building three full games, not experiments.”, so the comment about destinations is likely not true.
I'm very hopeful for what Valve bring to the table this time around.

The basic mechanics are there. It needs marketing and some form of "progression" to really catch on, I think.

PvP is in the best state it's ever been in, IMO. Balanced heavies (no more sprinting, sliding shotguns dominating the entire crucible).

Don't want to view fluff? Avoid ~fluff. Want to view a topic without the fluff present? filter comments tagged as fluff.
Highly doubtful since this gives them majority share in Hulu.
