Why can't gamers create a Steam clone using AI?
>>749869085Because I want to finance Gaben's next yatch, got a problem with that?
saar, your samsung phone already fix photo with aivery very good very very nice
>>749869085they can. a Steam clone needs games to sell, retard
>>749869085>>749869284It would be great if it had all the games that have been reverse-engineered
>>749869085>45686734343.pngWhere are these fucking filename formats coming from? Bot shit?
>>749869085all these click bait articles and youtube titles never mention that the vibe coded alternative is absolute unusable trash, but hey it's a start
>>749869424You're way too autistic.
>>749869424ermmmstop noticing chuddie
>>749869085It already exists: Epic Games launcher.
>>749869476These are just the first steps, wait six months for them to perfect it.
>>749869551Just two more weeks and AGI becomes a real thing. Just ignore the previous models that were hyped as AGI they were all bad, all the new models we never get to actually see in public, they're the real deal.
>>749869085>>749869396We need a vibecoded Steam clone with AI decomps. It’s so hard to keep up with the rapid pace of technological development; it honestly would be great to have all the latest projects in one place.
>>749869085Can they bring flash back please?
>>749869424>1791727456980720.png>>749869085because steam is more than just a client user interface
>>749869424Yeah I’ve been wondering the same thing just because they’re not the names you get from saving files from here, it kind of adds to that lifeless dead internet feeling.
>>749869085Heroic Launcher already exists
>>749869085This. Why don't they just clone amazon and sell all the products for free?
>>749869749Someone will make it happen eventually.
Epic Games already exists.
>>749869085Maybe because Steam IS actually GOOD?
>>749869424it's always low effort screencaps and argument bait too. What is the point of this?Seriously just check every shitty screencap engagement bait thread, they all have weird ass filenames no organic user would ever have, not even the extensions that randomize filenames make them look like that>>749851940>>749864453>>749853680>>749865712 (just 404'd)
>>749870306>>749869424I stole the image from /g/, now go be a schizo somewhere else.
>>749869085>We should get away from Steam>Sure, here are some already existing alternatives to use>No I won't use themfags
>>749870406nah, we need to actually talk about this shit
>>749869476This + Filmcraft are objectively decent and in some areas are better than the FOSS alternatives. I did some basic editing with both and didn't have any crashes. Photocraft has fewer lines of code than Gimp and it launches instantly.
>>749870647>Photocraft has fewer lines of code than Gimp and it launches instantly.kek yeah that's what people leave out when saying it's vibecoded trash, the human-made alternative has been cooking for like 20 years and is still not very good, with plenty of bugs of its ownImagine if some small team of humans made these programs instead, they'd be hailed as computer wizards and everyone would wonder how they got it to a beta state so fast
>>749869085>vibe coded slopno thanks
>>749869085Why do people even glaze Steam so much? I'd rather rip every game so it can be launched straight from the .exe without having a dozen "steamwebhelper" running in the background . I dgaf about achievements or social features although reviews are nice.
Why do I need an alternative to steam? I’ve never had an issue with it.
>>749869284>claude make a steam clone, then copy/paste all pc games and port all console exclusives to it
>>749871063Because Steam engages in unfair business practices by taking a massive 30% cut from sales (even though they had 0 involvement in the development of those games). They also allow customers to refund games after beating them. Like imagine eating an entire meal at a restaurant and refunding it. These business practices heavily penalize developers which makes it harder for them to finance and develop new games. You need to be able to think beyond 1 degree of abstraction to understand why this is bad.
>>749869749Yes please.
>>749871220can't slop around Metcalfe's law
>>749869085>AIslurpers journos are so alien to computing they don't know Krita or Gimp have existed for literal decadesIt's really sad when you think about it
>>749869085The answer is infrastructure, you got millions to invest in servers anon?
>>749869154Gabe is not going to have another yatch because satan will punish him for selling chickens full with sin
>>749869085Why would anyone want to shop on a vibe coded store?
>>749871762no woke games
>>749869284Who said anything about the games being paid? The Overdrive store knows what's up.
>>749871654Why do we let insane people have internet access?
>>749869085Whos gonna host it, you? Nigga that shit takes a lot of money and organization.
>>749869085is AI also supposed to build the servers that are going to host and serve all the game downloads?
>>749869749I honestly dont see the point too much in decomps when emulation offers essentially the same but on a grander scale. Also emulation benefits all games, decomps will largely benefit only the popular ones.
>>749869085Steam is useless bloatware that runs in the background sucking up resources. Why the fuck would anyone want it in the first place?
>>749872713why do we let valve employees have internet access?
>>749872825We will create botnet to host our games :^)
>>749871220Idgaf. I’m an end consumer. The platform is working well for me.
>>749871220Okay, so you've vibeslopped a copy of steam's client successfully (not very hard to do, mind you), and let's say you even procured some games that you want to sell on that platform. But oh shit - you actually need a CDN to deliver those games to people. Those files aren't just going to magically appear on your customers' computers. So you need to get some servers - all around the world too, north and south america, europe, australia and asia - what is your agent going to do? Get on AWS? Azure? Or maybe even use your AI's data centers for storage and delivery, that's a good trick. Anyway, that's a problem for future you to worry about, we're dethroning gaben here.Next thing you need to do is establish a working workflow with payment processors (unless you want your payments come only through crypto, but even steam stopped doing that because of how volatile that sector is. but you know better of course) and that's gonna be free, wink wink.Oh, and you also need to have a working and fast and robust refund system. Do you have enough funds to amortize the refunded games? Surely you're not going to ask the developers that you transferred the money to to send it back :^)Oh, and you also need to set up a customer service too, but surely AI can do it easily. You just need a dozen agents (well, maybe a couple dozen, your service is going to be booming after all) in every language ready to help your customers 25/7. Claude, provide support to an online gaming store, make no mistakes.And I am not even talking about hosting, monitoring and moderating user feedback forums, reviews, curators, in-store advertisements, worskhop......and speaking of hosting things. It's the end of the fiscal year, you've graciously gave away 100% of the revenue from games you've sold to their developers - after all, you had 0 involvement in their development - and your agent is happy to present you the bill for the AWS cluster it chose to host and deliver your games. And your tokens.
>>749869085Same reason Epic can't, it has to actually work and your jeet garbage can't do that.
>>749872885>emulation benefits all gamesOnly if the emulator is programmed to be accuratePCSX2 used to employ tons of game-specific hacks before the overhaul
>>749869085I wouldn't mind an AI systematically going through my library and keeping all my games cracked and up to date in the case of a steam shutdown/internet blackout
>>749872983>he's okay with the workshop, which encourages retards to upload mods behind a paywall and blocks 3rd party downloadersyou're scum
>>749870018I generate random sequences of numbers for my filenames so no one can identify my posts through pattern recognition
>>749873161Workshop is nice though, I like one click mod installation
>>749873023CDN? Just vibecode reverse engineer hex hash of the game code and send that! then the user can recompile it, no need for CDNs or anything. it's just a text file.
>>749873218>DRM is nice thoughRetard
>>749869749Also add mods and porn mods.
>>749873265I didn't say the DRM itself was nice, I said the function of the workshop is nice. Can we have a decent conversation without your putting words in my mouth and vice versa?
>>749872945What's your beef with Valve? And same question to anyone else that despise Valve. To me they're just a service I have most of my PC games on, and so far they have been pretty decent. I'm not the biggest fan of online DRM, but it is what it is.
I see some steam bootlickers are getting nervous.
>>749873759Gaben sold me a chicken egg filled with Jewish sin - what is this second-hand sin selling? Do i look like a goy to you? you cannot just sell me sin in the form of chicken and expect me to pay money to feed it.
>>749873759so let me be clear - you go and bomb Gaza and then you put your in in a chicken and you sell it to me in cs 2 and now you have the nerves to ask me what problem do i have with valve? I did not bomb Gaza but after i accepted the chicken egg, i might as well have. i now bear all the sin in the world.
>>749869424>genuinely nobody knowsspooky shit, makes me think of asking /x/
>>749869424phoneposting
>>749874089>>749873951Time for your meds granpa
>>749869085SAAAR DO NOT REDEEM THE VIBE CODED ONLINE STORE!
>>749873161No paywall for me. One click download and the mod just works. Remind me why I need a “replacement” for this again?
>>749874423i will put all my sins back in another chicken and even transfere the sins from the valve chicken and put chicken with all the sins free in valve HQ unless Valve makes feeding chickens free. Unless my conditions are met I will create the mother of all sin chicken that will make even Satan angry.
>>749871063
ENOUGH WITH THE FUCKING CHICKENS
>>749869085imonit
>>749874657I will build the 3rd temple right at Valve HQ because the chicken food is not free.
How come these articles don't talk about how fucking ass the AI versions are and don't even work right
>>749874780>>749874539What kind of AI bot is this?
>>749869085why can't we make a 4chan clone with no mods and jannies?
>>749874825So just like Adobe software.
>>7498749038ch..
>>749874925well you aren't wrong
>>749874869not a bot, just angry for the chicken food prices.
>>749871654How do you transfer your sins into a chicken in the first place?
>>749875112ask gaben. he sold me the chicken egg
>>749869183>>749874492are you going to just larp as an Indian for the rest of your life any time you see someone mention AI? Is that your future? An entire lifetime of larping as an Indian?
>jews want to enslave the planet and create a permanent underclass subservient to them and their AI tech stranglehold>the plebians get their hands on open source AI models>immediately begin challenging all these incredibly jewish tech oligarchs by reverse engineering their shit with AIThis has to be proof of god or something. This level of cosmic irony where the tool meant to enslave backfiring can't be pure coincidence.
Why can't gamers make anti cheat work on Linux (and de-woke Gnome) with AI?
>>749869085>after disrupting legacy software's economic modelLet's stop for a moment to appreciate the sheer jewish nonsense presented here
>>749869085>trying to tip off corps on everyone all for a measly 5 dollar jeetpromotion.These shiteating fucks deserve the rope
>>749875246Hate has many forms, you just need to adapt with the times. At some point the hate will flow naturally, and you will be able to sit by the river and see it flowing on its own.
>>749875561It's called hubris.
>>749869487>>749869525>>749869912>>749870018>>749870306>>749870406>>749874153>>749874230>>749869424Its phone posting. Readchan for example does this.Kind of nice to not have a file named niggerkillerchildpprn.jpeg on your phone
>>749870406of course the egs shill is a /g/ tranny lmao
>>749875561>>749875916>the jewsJust say "capitalists", you retarded marxist retard.We all know what you mean.
>>749876598Yeah I like computers
>>749869085>Why can't gamers create a Steam clone using AI?Tim did and Steam still analy sodomized it
>>749869085Too bad this "Photoshop" is completely unusable for anything even slightly more complex, which means the other apps don't work at all.
>>749877549Friend on discord had it delete his entire draft folder and not to the recycling bin either. When he told me that I've been too afraid to even try it even to fuck around
>>749877549If you want free opensource photoshop there's like a dozen versions of it, maintained for years. Gimp and the like. the AI being unable to just steal their codes is baffling
>>749869424You guys don't randomly slam numbers on files you save here?
>>749873180>>749878736>they don't use 4chanx's randomize filenames function
>>749878549>>If you want free opensource photoshop there's like a dozen versions of it, maintained for years. Gimp and the likeDude are you ok? It's nothing like Photoshop, it's shit.
>>749869085Shut the fuck up.
>>749869085How would that work exactly? Be specific.
>>749877549the whole point of the "le hecking free adobe" has been just an excuse to shill AIevery single retard talking about it never shows footage of the vibe coded dogshit software
>>749879041>I MUST GET THE BRAND SIAAARAre you defective or retarded or both? those open sources projects are already better than you AI slop, and actually free instead of costing tokens.
>>749878987It's still obvious it's just you spamming it when the hash search finds 30 posts all with different filenames
>>749879218I'm pretty sure most of them don't even care about photoshop or any that, just AI did something they see as a positive so their "team" won.Usually if they show it off online it reveals it's dogshit with usually the dumbest bugs possible.
>>749869424>>749870018Do you literally only save images from 4chan or something?
>>749878987Is there a way to toggle that function with a key shortcut?I like my filenames for certain jokes.
>>749869085Anything that hurts Adobe is good in my book, but on the other hand, why wouldn't I just keep using Affinity instead?
>>749879229>those open sources projects are already better than you AI slop, and actually free instead of costing tokens.?Literally the shitty AI copy is also shit though? Follow the conversation idiot.
Why would you want to use a Steam clone when Steam is good? People are making a clone of Photoshop because Adobe's subscription model is ass.
>>749879624>githumb projects that exists since 2005? totally AI bro, subscribe to my channel to get the REAL AI okMental illness.
>>749879690Lol what?
Tltal luddite death
>>749869085why would I create an ai alternative of a free program that I have no issue with?
>>749873023>Surely you're not going to ask the developers that you transferred the money to to send it backSteam officially has a 2 week window for refunds, and holds money from purchases for 30 days. This is why they were able to fully refund everyone who bought The Day Before; the Studio never received a single cent.
>>749870018When I make a post and I use an image from my clipboard I just mash a bunch of numbers together before hitting submit so it's not just the exact date and hour I snipped the image.
>>749873023Holy bootlicker. Nothing that steam does is intelligent or remarkable in any way. The only reason they have a monopoly is because they happened to do it first. Pretty much any high schooler could remake steam in an afternoon or two. You still haven't justified why steam should be allowed to get away with stealing 30% of developer's money...
I hope for the sake of everyone's sanity that we can endure the era of slop and eventually find a workflow that make use of AI's strength backed by actually talented individuals instead of giving every idea guy an ego boost with stupid untested shit.t. someone who uses it as a glorified search engine and sanity checker more than replacing my entire workflow
>>749871654It's supposed to be a symbol to teach the Jews that that is them, but of course they don't understand anything.
>>749881781>Pretty much any high schooler could remake steam in an afternoon or two.Clearly not given the state of the competition
>>749869085Clone what? Steam's value is in its services. Are you going to host petabytes of games, chats, remote play sessions, mods, videos, etc?
I know that people have submitted AI stuff claiming it is not AI, I wonder if someone has submitted a broken non-AI thing as an AI thing and seen how tolerant people are with it being broken?This isn't a condemnation of AI mind you, I would be hypocritical, but it is a neat thought experiment because I find this discourse fascinating.
>>749881781I know everyone already tells you this every thread but I don't give a fuck about how much the developer makes
>>749879247That's not how shit works, faggot. If 5 different anons itt saves pic related then all of them have a pic with the same hash.
>>749882352He pretends to care about the 30% but "conveniently" ignores consoles take 30% and the only other place besides Steam that you will actually make money.
>>749882532its just so tiring seeing the same argument about how you have to care about how much the heckin developerino makes as an end user, and nobody does. I want to conveniently pay for, download, and play the game, and optionally get it refunded if it is dogshit, and steam does that. Timmycels pretend an 18% cut is somehow magnitudes better and somehow makes a better product, which it has flat out proven to not be true.
>>749881462>manyally mashing instead of turning on x's randomizerFor what purpose. It picks a random unix timestamp from the last 5 years.
>>749882607I'm in favor of reducing the cut across the board instead of picking and choosing who can and can't have a certain cut.But I'm not gonna believe for a second that will benefit me for the most part nor preach about where you should or shouldn't buy a game.
>>749882508I know how 4chan works. Using the same image a bunch of times gives you away because there wouldn't be 30 anons all independently saving some shitty reaction image you likeSorry that you're still obvious, newfag
>>749882971>my headcanon is fact, the voices in my head told me soLurk moar faggot.
>>749883073These are all you, and it's obvious. Stay newhttps://arch.b4k.dev/v/search/image/0SjA4F0X9JBfJ7mcsdiD9g/Either way, I'm out. Not gonna read your coping response, you know that i am correct
>>749883213>only one person would ever save a generic reaction image and if you disagree then ur new lolConcession accepted.
>>749879581There's no keybind for it, but you can use the real filename by clicking on the little "Reset Filename" circular arrow
>>749879581>>749884635I somehow fucked up my screencap
>>749875561Every generation, they think they cracked the code on the perfect golem.
