why are steam forums so unhinged?
based steamies
That's kinda based not gonna lie.
every online forum is just 4chan now
>>738467703>the only discussion about anything to do with gaming has 0 repliesyep, it's 4chan alright
>>738468017Total chud victory.
>transfolxmake games, work as translators, create art, partecipate in parades and irl manifestations>chudscry online
>>738467703Why do chuds hate this game? It didn't even seem woke to me.
>>738468342color of any kind is woke
If you shit on crimson desert in the crimson desert forums they will react more aggressively and angrily than anything I've ever seen on 4chan.It really is the mustering grounds for those who ascribe their whole identity onto a video game's success.
It depends on how popular a game is>TF2's SPUD being a complete shithole of like 5 posters on upwards of their hundredth alt trying to ritual post the game to death by being annoying for 10 years straightOr unpopular.>Marathon's SPUD being a cancerous shithole of autists trying to convince other people to think they're cool for shrieking at a game nobody likes.Generally people are totally oblivious to the existence of steam community features unless explicitly informed of them, so the quality of poster varies wildly between complete shit or actually good, and all of them inform you that the Chinese pretty blatantly bot the steam hardware survey because there's no reasonable way you could claim a third of the people on steam are chinks.
>>738467703Because steam is full of /r/pcmasterrace zoomer retards, oh wait that's also /v/ it's the same group.
Online culture has shifted in the past few years to the point that all social media is 4chan lite. It's partly why this place is bleeding users. Why go to 4chan when you can go on X or Discord and get the same experience? There's way more people there too.
>>73846770370% of steam users are chinks.
>>738468660>There's way more people there tooThis is also total bullshit, but you do have a point of most major websites for social interactions being functionally interchangable
>>738468660Maybe I'm numb to it but 4chan sfw boards have started to feel like the tamest and most sensible communities compared to all the social media slop.
>>738468660but you have to have a username and a gay little profile picture which defeats the whole point
>game installs spyware to your computer>doesnt even do you the courtesy of uninstalling it after you remove itHow is this even fucking legal jesus fucking christ. Im glad bungie is failing if this is what they want me to install just to play a fucking sloppa FOTM extraction shooter.
>>738467703
>>738468798Yes and no, if you're known as a user to be a complete fag yeah people will just ignore you, but functionally speaking there really isn't that much different.The fags running this site maintain profiles on people based on what IP they're posting from and what images they post and they act like total fags about it so the main thing you'd have to worry about, admins being fags because they don't like you is a problem here too.
>>738468342I don't think it's really Chud hate, the game is just ugly and people were already pissed at Bungie for what they did to DestinyThe Chud memes just work well for shitposting a game. Writing a ten pages novel on why you think the game is bad isn't well suited for a victory lap.Some Chud one-liner before you dab out of the room works way better.
>>738469020It's more of a distraction from the fact that the game is fairly generic and uninteresting imo.
>>738468017and that's a good thing
>>738467703Why have gamers become petite-shareholders who are more obsessed with how much money a game makes than how fun it is to play?
>>738468790Passive aggressiveness breeds resentment, and being unable to vent resentment due to overmoderation leads to passive aggressiveness. On 4chan you can go on a full raging schizo fueled vent if you need to and you won’t be banned. On any other social media, any slight whiff of genuine aggressive anger and you get perma’d. This creates a feedback loop of passive aggressiveness and resentment, rendering those social medias unusable for anyone with healthy grasp on their emotions. Healthy doesn’t mean bottling up negative emotions and radiating forced positivity, by the way, like leftists want you to believe. Healthy means letting them flow outward, the good and the bad, naturally. 4chan is the only major social media you can do this anymoreThis manufactured resentment is what is going to lead to world war 3, and we fully have overmoderated social media to thank for that.
>>738469269I mean I could break down why basically every social media is shit, but you're probably not interested in the boring mechanical reasons behind that.
>>738469269This is a very good post anon. But I would argue that there is probably a bit of nuance and a middle ground somewhere between forcing people to supress their emotions and opinions vs just letting people say whatever they want all the time.
>>738468301>I care so much about the state of the video games industry but I would NEVER EVER develop a video game
>>738469246Why do you act like this is anything new? It's no different than the console wars of earlier generations.
I thought Marathon had EoS'd, why does it even have an active Steam Forum? The publisher not know they can just have their social media guy lock the forum to read-only?
>>738468342Vast majority of people who hate the game are probably Destiny fans who are pissed at Bungie for what they did to that game.
>>738469246When shareholder speak became an official metric to shill games. Enjoy, we'll never let you live it down.
>>738468660twitter will shadowban you and then permaban you for no reason, trannycord isn't even close to the same experience
>>738469576>we'll never let you live it down.I'm assuming you think I'm a member of [other side]?
>>738469197if you're a low iq white right-winger, yes
>>738469371Because they're designed to keep you scrolling even if that means making you angry rather than being designed to show you quality content you'll actually enjoy?
>>738469874in what reality?
>>738467703This is just the natural backlash to the two decades of SJW bullshit people had to suffer.
>>738467703steam forums are just 4chan-lite, except filled with even more children and schizos
>>738469269people do get banned here, you moron
>>738470008I mean no, yeah you're actually pretty close there, but the REAL answer is that most site metrics are complete bullshit and the near entirety of the tech industry is just a precession of investment and advertising scams directly at the cost of the established reasons for any of these sites existing.
>>738469972>if you're a low iq white right-winger, yesSorry whatever you are lost the culture war.Tranny? Thirdie? Kike? Garden variety nigger or faggot?
>>738470083>its every1's fault but meeeaww white tough men like you have no agency at all whatsoever lmao. do a everyone a favor and drink bleach
>>738469931Oh no, you're blending in just fine.
>>738469269I dunno about that considering people regularly complain about over moderation here
>>738468605Chinamen aren't allowed to use the discussion boards etc, too many incorrect ideas
>>738470278Would you feel bothered if I called you Sudanese?
>>738470338Cope, there's a chink in a steam group I'm in who's both accidentally incriminated himself as, and admitted to having like 10 different alts.
>>738470269I am anything but a right wing retard who votes for pedophiles. It makes sense that you value culture wars instead of fuel prices, because dumbfucks like you have never cared about anything important in their entire lives.
Couldn't tell you, I'm banned until Monday.
>>738468017More like 4chan is just every online forum now.
>>738467703>WE NEED CHINESE LANGUAGE>WE NEED RUSSIAN LANGUAGE>WE NEED UKRAINE LANGUAGE
>>738470435I'm right wing, I absolutely don't support kike pedophiles.>It makes sense that you value culture wars instead of fuel pricesIf you valued fuel prices you'd be right wing and against more kike wars in the middle east.
>>738468017Except 4chan, which is just /steam charts and Twitter snips/
>>738467703Why gamers care about sales so much?
The clown award really encouraged people to be as obnoxious as possible
>>738470530Spoken like a developmentally stunted white dude.
>>738470294I got banned for asking why trannies and indians smell alike.The question is: was I banned by a tranny or an indian?
>>738470607Hey he's not the one pointing to meaningless factional bullshit.
>>738468342Tortanic secondaries play gacha slop, they don't game so... Lotta free time
>>738467703kek
>>738470634>The question is:Why were you going out of your way to talk about trannies and pajeets?
>>738470585If you genuinely think this, you haven't used steam community features very long.
>>738467703it's 4chan lite, and that's a good thing
>>738470271kys tranny
>>738470419Are they actual alts or just accounts he's bought for access to games? Keysites sell keys but they also sell accounts with games that were bought at region-locked prices.
>>738470019?
>>738470607>Spoken like a developmentally stunted white dude.He sounds pretty resonable to me.>I'm right wing, I absolutely don't support kike pedophiles.>If you valued fuel prices you'd be right wing and against more kike wars in the middle east.What is "developmentally" stunted about that? Those statements would literally only offend jews.
>>738468017Even X is just 4chan now. We won a bit too hard.
>>738467703steam forums are just the common room of the videogaming mental ward, try not to think too hard about their repetitive, drug-addled rambling
>>738468798Past a certain size of community, when everyone has a username and profile picture nobody does
>>738470692I know what you're thinking but "it begs the question" is bastardized English and as a White I try to avoid saying it.
>>738468017every online forum that isn't moderated into an echo chamber is just 4chan
>>738470607>Spoken like a developmentally stunted white dude.Because I hate kike pedos and pointless kike wars? Fucking lol
>>738470797X is way worse because you can make money from ragebaiting
>>738470271Enjoy being eaten alive by your previous minority pets when the collapse happens.
>>738471009just call it trolling anongetting paid for trolling would be a childhood dream come true
>>738470786>So I know you just told me he incriminated himself as samefagging across multiple accounts, but have you considered being tricked by him? Have you considered he has a totally legitimate reason to have like 10 other accounts he acts like a fag on
>>738470496Yeah this place fucking sucks. Good threads are a rarity in a sea of culture war bullshit and the exact same threads about the exact same topics every day, just like every other forum
>>738471120>just call it trolling anonIt's not trolling, so no.
>>738467703think about what kind of creature you would have to be to post there regularly whether they're chudding it up or fagmaxxing. It's not something that normal people do, and 99% of subnormal people don't do it either. To wake up and spend your day constantly refreshing the forgotten forums of dead games so you can spam the dumbest fucking posts ever, or breaking your f5 key on the newsposts for games so that you can be the first person to type "xaxaxa add br/chinese/tagalog language pls". I imagine them all as dsygenic malformed homunculi.
>>738471120Trolling used to be a art. There hasn't been any real trolling for years, if not a decade now. It's all just low effort ragebait screencaps.
>>738471420it israge baiting is just a synonym of trolling, zoomers just don't know the word trolling anymore
>>738471509
the only discussion forum i follow is an indie game where the majority of topics are from thirdie children complaining that the game is too hard demanding it to be simpler and cater to their time while the dev regularly comes around and reads all of it, and proceeds to make the game even harder with every update.
