Author Topic: Steam is allowing people to sell workshop content  (Read 20703 times)

Holy stuff this entire debacle is really grinding my gears, now it's just a massive circlejerk clusterforget.

No one is forcing you to buy them, so why be a whinny brat about it? I didn't install very many mods in Skyrim, and I still got like 500 hours out of that game.


no one is forcing you to do most things, truth be told. if your criteria on having an opinion is based entirely on whether or not someone is coercing you, you might want to rethink the way you process information

You know, i wouldn't have an issue with this if Valve had some sort of quality control on paid mods and if bethesda wasn't so damn greedy. Just like the market, valve recives 25%, which is perfectly fine, but the reason for modders only getting 25% is because bethesda decided to get a 50% cut, while valve continues to get 25%.

If they don't remove it, i just hope they change it where modders get 50% and the mods have to be approved first.

All the damage control by hiding reviewer ratings is just wrong though.


that makes sense. if you're going to charge for a mod, it should defo be worth the money, and in order for mods to move into a more professional space, things have to change to facilitate that. hopefully valve pulls this wreck together soon before moving forward with it, because as things currently stand, things aren't lookin too great

yeah, game changing mods should probably be worth money. but that's still pushing it.

WELP
Remember how you could get mod refunds within 24 hours of buying them?
If you do that you get banned from the market for a week.

it all comes tumbling down


One of the main things here though is that valve decided they would do something they damn well would know would be incredibly controversial without any warning at all, just out of nowhere this shows up.

Valve basically just Hiroshima'd this entire thing

I don't even know if that would be the correct way of saying it but its like the equivalent of dropping a nuclear bomb without any warning so I'm rolling with it

wtf is wrong with valve right now

why are they doing these things that make things worse and hurt the cause

man this SUCKS!!

still dumb though


also isn't it kind of strange that refunds go into your steam wallet? like they aren't even giving you your money back...you still have to buy something on steam with it...

tbh that's fairly standard refund policy for stores but it's still kinda goofy practice in a lot of ways

i guess you could argue it is anti-consumer

it's more about how everyone went from "wow thanks gabe so many cheap games steam is awesome" to "STEAM IS SATAN" in one second.

it's a mistake, not the end of the world, guys. this is easily reversible when valve realizes that they forgeted something up
