Hidden gems don't exist. You can't name a single game that's actually good but nobody talks about it. All """examples""" I see are games that have sold hundreds of thousands of copies and made millions in revenue. They may be a gem but not hidden by any stretch of the word.Hidden gems don't exist.
you nvked my argument into obl'vion
>>726007823get a life nigga
If nobody out of like 200 people I added on Steam have the game buyed or wishlisted, it's a hidden gem to me
>>726008190It's only a hidden gem if it has 100 reviews or less on Steam. That's the only objective and logical metric to go by for. Anything else is normalfag retardation.

>>726007823>projectile vomits all over OP the faggot and his faggot opinionBLAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGHLGLGLGLGLGL!
>>726007823The most hidden gem is the game that I made for myself and nobody else. I will not release it, nor will I show or describe any gameplay to you.
>>726008251Name every game that has over 200 reviews on Steam.
>>726007823Call Hating.There, now you can kill yourself OP.
>>726008351I snuck into your house and played it yesterday. Basically, it was a gigantic pile of donkey shit.
>>726008351It has to exist to be a "hidden gem". Your game doesn't exist.
Play Million Depth
>>726008437Post proof of it being in your Steam library. I too can find a game with a low review count and namedrop it here.
>>726008443NOO FUCK i hate you i hate you i hate you i hate you i hate you i hate you i hate you i hate you>>726008509Bitch.
ok frogposter
>>726007823there are a million games over dozens of machines that you've never played. games that didnt sell at all.the only truth nuke here is that you've played less than 1% of all games and consider yourself an authority.dumb frogposter
>>726009553>there are a million games over dozens of machines that you've never played. games that didnt sell at all.Okay so name them. Name a single one that you actually played, a game that, as you put it, "didn't sell at all".
>>726009774I'm not spoonfeeding a retard. me exposing your naivety and stupidity is the objective, and that has been achieved.you probably think gaming started in 2019
>>726010101i will not release the files to prove my innocence ahh post
Trvke is a sharty meme. 4chan has not produced any new memes in years
>>726007823You should hide being such a faggot.
>>726007823They exist for people who actually like games.Not for those who just like vidya culture / being part of a collective.
>>726010101>I'm not spoonfeeding a retardSo you can't name any. I'm right. Hidden gems don't exist.
>>726007823>soldHaha. Yeah. The kinoest games are made for free by schizos.
>>726007823>zoomer op thinks popular=good
>>726011039>subhuman /v/tard misunderstands the post
>>726007823Medieval Conquest
>>726008251A game with like 100 reviews usually has something that is seriously wrong with it, reviews usually snowball into more reviews with good games. I'd sooner believe a good game with no reviews than a good game with a hundred or two.
>>726011361Or it simply wasn't marketed and nobody knows about it? If your launch on Steam isn't great you're fucked forever, your game won't ever become popular unless some youtubist makes a video on it.Steam doesn't promote games that don't already do well.
Not going to spoonfeed you. I enjoy having my private favorites. The second I tell someone on /v/ a youtuber will snatch them up and in a few months I'll stumble on retarded arguments on /v/ about my babies

>>726011712Is there one example of a game with 200 reviews or less that is actually, genuinely great?You CAN sort steam games by release date I'm pretty sure, I did it once or twice, I've never seen a game that looks good I haven't seen or heard about at least once. I've read/watched post-mortems of random indie games that sold like 100 copies and not once have I not implicitly understood why the game didn't catch on.The chance to make something good and have it not find at least one schizo that spams it on all social media and shares it with all their schizo friends (for them to do the same) seems really small.
>>726012086>The chance to make something good and have it not find at least one schizo that spams it on all social media and shares it with all their schizo friends (for them to do the same) seems really small.It SEEMS small because you have no idea what the market is. These schizos you speak of? They don't exist, well not anymore at least. If a game fails to launch properly it's doomed.Also, if a game only sold 100 copies then it has 10 reviews or less. The review to sale ratio is not 1:1.
>>726012086In music all kinds of good artists fail to find an audience. Why would gaming be different?
>>726012345>Why would gaming be different?Because Steamies are delusional cultists
>>726011795 Soul. The second you post that folder of 200MB Unity abominations with jank UI and genre mashups that shouldn’t work but somehow do, some troon vtuber is going to call it “cozycore” and then it’s over. First comes the Let’s Play, then the dishonest Metacritic review bombings, next thing you know it's in a Polygon listicle titled “10 Games That Made Me Cry While Transcending Capitalism.” Nope. Keep the gems buried.
>>726013329>>726011795>>726010552>>726010101You don't play games this obscure. You don't have a single game with less than 10 reviews in your steam library. You're a poser.
>>726012345Supply/demand. There are millions of gamers and a relatively small amount of gamedevs and making a game is a long and arduous process. In music a lot of the most popular genres can be produced by someone with less than a year of experience so there are thousands and thousands of competitors for the same audience. And if you are making more technical and complicated music then you are still going up against a lot of competition because musician is still a more popular project than gamedev, and you have a small audience.
>>726012605This. Based tranny destroyer Tim Sweeney dared to challenge that fat fuck Gaben's monopoly money printing machine and shills on this board of course wasted no time shitting it up.
>>726013558>There are millions of gamers and a relatively small amount of gamedevs15000 games released on steam ALONE in 2024.How are steamies this out of touch with their own platform?
>>726012605What platform offers betters services. Don't talk about drm shit, because that's entirely up to the developers. All paradox games dont have it that im aware of, unless the tranpire game added it. Steam isnt forcing it.
>>726013653when will timmy learn

>>726016549Once again Steamies prove how retarded they are.
