STEAMDB IS KILL
>>746703787nexusmods is based now, retard
well this text is saying that exact opposite will happen
>>746703787>Nexus Mods has been serving gaming communities.Nexus Mods has been serving tranny communities.
>>746703787wtf do they have in common even?
>>746703934One has money, and the other needs it and is a shameless whore who will gladly sell out.
>>746703934peoples data
steamdb still exists? i only remember it was mildly useful to check if there was a free game giveaway active, since occasionally (usually) Steam's front page neglects to point out when a developer is giving a game away for free.
>>746703787ripmore unholy amalgamationsreminder that nexusmods was sold to this company who are crypto/nft bros
>>746703916there are a lot of conservatives on nexus lmao, you just whine about it because nazi shit isn't allowed on there
>>746703884nuh huh, they still banned the dragonborn's altmeri death camp!!!
>>746704027everybody should whine because nazi stuff isn't allowed on therenobody should be censored why is this so hard for newfags to understand?
>>746704041they're banning shitted mods tho, unlike some other modding sites shilled by cuckservative grifters of asiatic origin
>>746704010It's very useful for downloading older build of your owned games.
>>746704027removing out of place fag flags isn't nazi shit you narcissistic freak
>>746704027No retard, they were literally banning creators and mods that simply changed body type A/B to male and female or companion mods that changed black characters to white, but they allowed mods that changed white characters to black.
>>746704027Are the muzzies nazis when games shipped to them have the gay flags removed?
>>746704027if there are troon flags or pronouns in any game ever, nexus mods says you cannot mod them in any way.this is a UK owned site and they still have this policy in defiance of the UK state which ruled that Trannies will never be women and removing them from women's paces and other places they have no business being is correct.
>>746703787>sells out to trannexus after its acquired by literal glownig jewsGonna be funny watching the dumpster fire.
>>746703787We'll still have Steam Charts so that's fineDB was always the inferior bloated mess anyways.
>>746703787Damn I remember when that place was called tesnexus
>>746704293Stsamcharts is less accurate than db
>>746704027progressive approved conservatism isn't conservatism.
>>746703787Seems like a smart move to me if it's been a single man endeavor all these years. It seems like it was this or ACTUAL kill if the original guy just abandoned it.Is there an actual reason to be mad about this, or is it weird culture war shit again?
>>746704321good morning saar
>>746704293I liked db for the sales and lowest price info.
>>746704293does steam charts track sales history? I use steamdb to estimate when I can go buy a game
>>746703787STEAMDB will now remove the ability to look up chart numbers if the game is profoundly leftist and doing poorly?What else could this even mean?
>>746704329Should've let it die, then. But you're the type of retard who would genuinely advocate that businesses should just sell their storefronts to Amazon.
>>746703787Nexusmods is fucking retarded for paying ini merchants, skip intro merchants, and reshade preset merchants
>>746704126They should ban the fully AI garbage that doesnt work / the creator is too retarded to know what their mod is doing to the game.
>>746704014>that motto>that company nameKojima levels of subtlety.
>>746703787>the internet we once loved is goneBut it's still there though?
>>746704350It just means that the original dude is tired of doing this all on his own for no real financial benefit and was burned out after 13 years of doing it.Was either give it to someone who had the resources to watch it or just abandon it, if what is being said is accurate.
>>746704456thexpaw ran away to blusky lmao
>>746704445jews aren't subtle
>>746704381So just weird culture war shit then and not an actual reason to be worried.Got it, thanks anon.
>We're going to be straight about this rather than dance around it: yes, SteamDB needs to make money. What xPaw has built - and kept running largely through personal dedication and community donations - is an extraordinary achievement. Giving it the team, infrastructure and long-term investment it deserves is how we protect that work and ensure SteamDB can thrive for the next decade and beyond.LMAOOOOOOOORIP
>>746703787How do I request my data to be deleted? Forms I keep finding seem to be for medical firms or something
>>746704350They will make deals with publishers to hide playercounts now. Mark my words especially considering its now owned by crypto/nft bros.
>>746704456You'd understand if you were older what he means by that. Especially if you hung around no 4chan. This place (and most other online spaces) have gotten so shitty compared to the early days.
>>746704117/pol/tards are a extremely retarded
>>746704345There are many pages that show you this. It might be part of Steam's API itself.
>>746704345Use isthereanydeal, they also track other stores outside steam, most sell steam keys anyways
I hate centralization so fucking much.
>>746703916literally every community on the internet is full of gays, furries and trannies, even /pol/you literally cannot interact with technology without using something made by a furry or a tranny
Why do they feel the need to be so melodramatic about it
>>746704027>conservativesLOL, faggotwhat are you trying to conserve? tranny faggot niggers?
>>746704634We need to control everything, otherwise another holocaust might happen because of you goyim!
>>746704329>uh selling out to a shady company is good bro think of all the money the dev made who cares what happens to the service he got that bag yassshang all zoomers
>>746704660there's a weirdly large number of furries working in technology for whatever reason. i don't really get it. maybe the type who'd obsess over technology just has the right kind of mind to have been warped by Lola Bunny back when.
>>746704293SteamDB was more than just charts posting, retardIt was incredibly useful for keeping track of game packages, sales, prices, depots and what have you. All for freeThis new faggot company will put shit behind subscriptions for sure
SteamDB also had a hand in a ton of game leaks throughout the years
>>746704579I'm older and the sites I want to work just work fine, beyond a few exceptions.
>>746704724Swing and a miss. Gen X.
>>746704554yeah, I really don't like the idea of nexusmodsfags handling my Steam data
>>746703787Jesus fuck.
>>746704782>I'm olderkek
>>746703787Are you going to commercialise it? We're going to be straight about this rather than dance around it: yes, SteamDB needs to make moneyhttps://steamdb.info/faq/?guildid=215154001799413770#are-you-going-to-commercialise-it
>>746703787countdown to trannies censoring player counts has begun
What resource does it need?
>>746704860Lol, game fucking OVER.everything locked behind tiers of subscriptions
Alrightyou can see the data SteamDB has on you on this pagehttps://steamdb.info/user/it's basically just your account id and all the steam app ids that are connected to your account and as it states on the same page>If you want to delete your data, you can do so on the sign out page.pressing sign out gives you the option to check a box that says>Delete my account and all of its data>Click the checkbox if you want to delete your account. You can recreate your account at any time.so that's how you can ask them to delete your info
They're going to get gaped by publishers now so site effectively is going to be dead soon. Wont be suprised if Valve themselves will send DMCA too.
>>746703787honestly good move if he was stepping away/v/ will definitely be level-headed and not knee-jerky about it
>Joins>be home for>stewarts Dr Pavel and theNexus guy are being purposefully vague
>>746704126I will never forget the day last year when my youtube feed was full of "based anti-woke" sloptubers mad about nexusmods deleting that shitted tattoo mod for Stellar Blade, full body tattoos and one was literally a picture of a white baby crossed out
>>746704793When you log out you can choose to nuke everything
>>746704562You're retarded anon. You can look at those numbers on directly on steam itself.
>>746704957Yeah, nexusmods isn't a notorious circus or anything, stop being antiseptic.
>>746703787It's fucking overThey will censor everything Nexus mods don't like
>>746704957>erm ACKshully this is a good thingthese posts reek of passive aggressive zoomertrans
>>746704581Only obnoxious faggots like you ever say that. Then when you get your safe space you turn around and censor everyone else next.
>>746704860>yes, SteamDB needs to make moneyIt didn't need to for a very long time, why does it need to now?
>>746704027They banned the Tattoo A2 Mod for Eve on Nexus.
>>746705020Not all data is available without going deeper to API. Yes API is public but no one does that shit. You're retarded one,shitskin.
>>746704957/v/ is always retarded and crying the sky is falling. Rage tourism is just the norm nowadays.
>>746704581>Thinking /pol/tards are the ones who would want to ban nazi stuffOk, troon, that was a really poor attempt.
>>746705023I only heard of some autists crying that their mod was deleted for retarded reasons when it is easy to get around being deleted by not being retarded.Any actual reason?
>>746704117I don't mind nazi symbols but 99% of time the people showing them are gigantic fucking retards no one wants to deal with. Gatekeeping things from the worst users is just fine.
>>746705050because the guy who did it for free/tips quit
>>746704741Transhumanism movement.They want to bring the singularity so they can stop wearing fursuits and turn themselves into real life animal people.
>>746703787Anything that joins Nexusmods is doomed, but what was SteamDB even for?
>>746705154>easy to get aroundHow did that line ago again? It was something about dishonest niggers and the futility of engaging.
>>746704117I'm sorry, anon, most people just like the sound of the word "integrity", but willingly lack any of it.
>>746704895ease p with the anti-semitic remarks, bud.
>>746704634Ass steam huffers love centralization by definition thoughbeit
>>746705230Way to prove the point mate.
Sharteens need to be executed.
>>746705071Again, you're just retarded AND lazy. Unsurprising.
>>746705287There is no point, faggot. You are literally arguing for putting up with unhinged kvetching self-sustaining trannies who get more unhinged and arbitrary by the minute.
>>746705212Convenient all-in-1 for charts, depots, metadata, price history...
I've never even heard of nexus mods. QRD on why they're bad?
Grim
I deleted my account, you should too
>>746703787makes sensetranny faggots love mods and posting steam charts so now it being all one place is convey for he/she/they/them/xhe/xher/it (sorry if I missed your pronouns)
>>746704994And you believe this does anything on their end.
>>746705365Already helped make the point mate, no need to add even more onto it.
>>746705396Requires a login, for one. And the mass deletion of le chud aligned mods
>>746705327Not an argument you subhumane shitskin. You're wrong and I am right.
>>746705467In first world countries they have a legal obligation to offer you the option and to honor it
>>746704554Send them GDPR request
>>746704456No, it's not.Boomers and techbros (eg. Zucc) ruined it.The old Internet is long gone
>>746704562>paying money to a Blackrock stooge to fluff up the numbers on your piece of shit ewasteGrim
>>746703787They'd go that far to stop CCUposting?
>>746705396Some faggots mad at actual rl faggots were too autistic to contain their power level and had to make it obvious what there mod was really about in how they described and titled it and got their shit deleted.So now they occasionally screech on /v/ on how unjustified it is when any halfway non-retarded person knows how to word shit to not get deleted.it's like faggot anons who cry on /v/ sometimes about how Valve bans their account because they have zero social skills or ability to word things in an adult manner
>>746703787FUCK
>>746704134>owned
>>746704741Always has been. Dunno what causes it overall, but early internet was very friendly and the furry community fucking exploded like zoomers wouldn't believe back then.Since it was mostly technicals and technical-minded people on the net at the time, it kinda spread itself out like a virus or fungal roots.
>>746705212Actually finding games to play because Steam sucks at that. You can filter by release date, score, number of reviews, tags, etc
>>746705396It's ModDB for powertripping admins and mod devs with ego problems.
>>746703787Once again, the Internet got just a little bit smaller.
>>746705654Why should some trannies have control over which mods you can use?
I wonder what they will hide behind the mandatory $5 paywall now, maybe the archive data or the player charts.
>>746705396Their moderators are ban-happy with mods they believe are against the LGBT.The Ser Aylin mod for Baldur's Gate 3 was the most egregious incident I can remember.>female modder genderswaps a lesbian character to that they can have a heterosexual relationship with the character>they consider the mod queer erasure>nexusmods bans the modder and nukes all of their previous non-offending mods
>>746704027I like how hating tranny freak retards automatically means you're a cuckservative. Kill yourself IMMEDIATELY faggot
>>746703916Both are the same.
>>746705396Outside of being extremely greedy?
How long until they lockdown ccu tracking because publishers paid them money?
>>746703787first nexus mods get bought by a jew then content gets gutted and they privatize even more now steam db collabs with the jew kinda crazy what they can get away with
>>746705654In my college days as a group project for one of my classes, we had to collectively write out on a wiki various thing about internet culture history subjects that we wanted to speak about. Some autist wanted to talk about 4chan and talk about "newfags" and shit, and we had to out loud explain to him away from the professor why that is a fucking stupid idea to actual use that terminology on a written out collegiate wiki for a grade, and how he especially doesn't want to use that terminology in a professional or outside-of-4chan setting.Some of the people who use this site is outright fucking retarded as hell.
https://steamdb.info/faq/?guildid=215154001799413770#are-you-going-to-commercialise-it>Are you going to commercialise it?>We're going to be straight about this rather than dance around it: yes, SteamDB needs to make money. What xPaw has built - and kept running largely through personal dedication and community donations - is an extraordinary achievement. Giving it the team, infrastructure and long-term investment it deserves is how we protect that work and ensure SteamDB can thrive for the next decade and beyond.>That said, we want to be smart about it, and it’s very important that we don’t degrade SteamDB from the amazing resource it is today. While we could simply put ads on the website, we don’t think that’s the right approach here. So we’ll be looking at other, lighter-touch ways to make the website sustainable. This may include use of partnerships, integrations, and affiliate links with publishers when you buy a game after visiting SteamDB. These are harder to do, take longer to set up, and may not show the benefits immediately, but we’re happy to take that hit in the interest of doing things right.>Here's what it does not mean: no paywall on anything that exists today, no selling your personal data, no login walls, no degrading the site to squeeze value out of it. Enshittification is when an owner extracts value while the product gets worse. Our plan is the opposite direction: put money and people in so the product gets better. Judge us on what we ship.>Will SteamDB stay free?>Yes. Free to use, Steam sign-in stays for the features that use it. Same as it's always been. Funding the site sustainably (see the commercialisation answer above) is how it stays that way.> Will anything currently free move behind a paywall?>No. Everything that's free on SteamDB today stays free. If we build genuinely new things someday, we may make decisions about those then, but nothing you know and use today is getting taken away and sold back to you.
>>746703787Marathon won
>>746704321that precise accuracy only matters when you're shitposting about games like marathon with low 4-digit ccu at best
>>746705915>No. Everything that's free on SteamDB today stays free>>today >Nothing currently free goes behind a paywall.>>currently they ARE going to put shit behind paywalls, just not right from the start ;)
Nobody uses Nexus for anything other than Bethesda games and Stardew Valley, which for some reason doesn't have a modded in-steam client like tModLoader.
Games that are not woke enough will now display warnings on steamdbGames that are explicitly anti-woke will be hidden by default on steamdb, and from sale calculators/views to prevent promotion of hate speech
>>746705915Reminder that statements like this aren't legally binding
>>746704350Definitely reads like he got a good offer to "lose his passion" and hand it over. It's unsurprising that something like this happens coincidentally as the usuals are seething about people using steam metrics to highlight how much they lie about the success and popularity of their trash. What else even still is there? The past the decade was a series of>people find a decent metric>removed/censored/faked/controlled>people find a new decent metric>removed/censored/faked/controlled>etc.across every entertainment medium. They'd rather do this kinda shit a million times than just making something genuinely appealing again.
>>746705678It's strange, but they've seemingly become one of the groups of people I have little, to no, problem with now, because they overall aren't shoving their shit into everyone's spaces nor trying to fuck with everyone else's shit to power trip nor ban others. As much shit as they get for their, what I find personally off-putting, tastes, early day tech people weren't bad or malicious, unlike the faggots and troons now, like some in this thread defending the actions of nexus.
>>746705654>stalker 2 launches>Russian community starts making a fan translation mod because the devs didn't want to do one, given the current state of relations between both countries>nexus, with no direct instruction from GSC whatsoever, proceeded to delete the mod because they figure it's tantamount to hate speech>this is despite the fact that the overwhelming majority of the stalker fanbase resides in Russia and the stalker modding scene is mostly comprised of Russian made contentThe devs not making a translation is one thing, nexus stomping out a fan translation because a government they have no control over is fucking around doing stupid shit is another.They absolutely are beyond over-sensitive to political issues and regularly slap anything they think MIGHT have ill intent even if it's schizophrenic levels of delusion.t. half Ukrainian and have been following the conflict since the early 2010s.
>>746705950who the fuck would pay for anything from them anyway lmao
>>746705904and then everyone clapped
>>746705962I use it for the occasional Bannerlord mod.The Steam Workshop for Bannerlord is weirdly having a huge malware problem recently, and while you could surely get some of that on Nexus tends to be caught earlier than Steam Workshop.
>>746706026Nah, I've met people like that.
>>746705904I met a few of them on a ship. But it was a ship so worked out well enough, but they were the types who would've 100% said that shit off a ship as well.
>>746705915>no paywall on anything that exists >>>TODAY<<<>Everything that's free on SteamDB >>>TODAY<<< stays free.
>>746706117on trooncord
>>746706117People who say fag or people who act like Linkedln profiles in human form?
>>746706023>government they have no control overthey can always do their own "euromaidan"though I'd still say most russians do support the conflict
>>746705821It was the same with the mod for Spiderman that just replaced all of the pride flags with American flags. There was nothing offensive in any of the mod's descriptions, but what it did is what the staff took issue with. This nanny, busybody horse shit with people's games, especially with a single player game no less, genuinely needs to stop.
>>746705396The reddit equivalent of mod sites.
>>746706210People who think real life is like 4chan and talk like it. Probably the same types who we make fun of here when they cry about Steam bans.
>steamdb premium>enforced politics >admin and mod interference with everythingalright neat
>>746704027>white skin replacer for black character>nazi shit!>black skin replacer for white character>I don't see anything. Sounds harmless.
While I totally understand, the sheer amount of fucking spam on steam these days would logistically make one of these things impossible to run for freeDamn does this suck ass
>>746703884>banning modsI'd hate to see what you think is unbased
>provide ID to view SteamDB
>>746706318Why would unethical trannies ever do that? Just hide your power level!
>>746703787>After COVID and AI, the internet we once loved is gone???
This is only an issue if they start locking info behind paywalls like jewish niggers which isn't stated anywhere.
>>746706221>though I'd still say most russians do support the conflictMostly just their boomer class, the retards, and anyone benefiting from the corrupt structure.Beyond that it's basically illegal to say anything bad about the whole thing so they're obligated to say they support it or risk getting the old 'broom is in the ass' treatment.
>>746706227>that just replaced all of the pride flags with American flagsfunniest part, mod doesn't replace pride flags, it switched localization to Saudi Arabia that automatically replaces all pride flags with American flags
>>746706364I'd imagine they're talking about the severe commercialization of the internet. It was already well on its way before that, but it accelerated after those. Usually call it enshitification though.
>>746705324Rent free!
>>746706409>if they start locking info behind paywallsThey've explicitly stated their intent to start locking new data behind paywalls, and eventually when the site dies old data.
>>746706473Where did they explicitly state that?
>>746706494>>746705915
>>746706020That's pretty much true of everybody, yeah. There's always been a fair amount of trans folk(back when they were called transexual, before the gender ideology shit started getting pushed on everyone,) in the tech industry too - relatively - and I never met one back then who wasn't mostly chill and keeping their bullshit to themselves for the most part.World's just a way different place now. Zillions of performative narcisists who think their business is everybody else's business, and an overabundance of nosy, self-entitled little shitlings who think your business should be everyone else's business, especially theirs.
>>746705396Nothing, I use it all the time. Seems like anons here have a bone to pick with the website for petty reasons.
>>746703787Nexus of all things... jfcTo the retarded anons defending Nexus, they would not purchase SteamDB out of good will. The power of money is also unlikely to replace the power of one passionate autist.Bye-bye any privacy SteamDB users may have had.
>>746706013Even if it was binding in some way, all they really have to do is slap it together in a different menu, UI and structure and then go>And this is the premium version for subscribers! Don't worry, it's just an addition!and then>We are going to discontinue the old version, it's not up-to-date with the new version of the site anymore, whoops!
>>746706584>privacy Lol is your steam data really that sensitive?
Is SteamDB the same guy who went to work for Epic Games or am I thinking of someone else?
>nexusfucking why you lazy nigger
>>746704027Nazi is conservative, faggot
>>746706584>purchase SteamDB?haven't seen anything about a purchase, just a hand off. am i fucking blind? (very possible)
>>746703884>nexusmods is based now, retardDid they finally alllowed mod replacing gay flags with American ones in Spider-Man to stay?
>>746706696oh fuck off. naziism has zero to do with conservatism you cosplaying faggot.
>>746706563As someone who had to interact with them on a relatively frequent basis.The transgender has literally always been as bad as it is now, they just didn't have the resources to be as much of a cancer as they have been up until the idea to generate a demographic of permanently indebted college students failed and they became the next goal of political elite.If you want to point to some things that HAVE changed, is that (at least if you can call it that) there's a demographic of "transgender furries" that typically call themselves therians in "private" conversations and try to blend into furry communities and make new converts and try to socially engineer new powergrabs.That and the internet getting totally buttfucked after 2014 left a huge vacuum for them to occupy.
>>746703787If valve was smart, they step in, and do this themselves.
>>746703787The fuck you people use steamdb for exactly? I just use the timer for the next sale.
>>746704027They banned picrel + a ton of custom extra monster mods (eg White Fatalis) from MonHun World for no fucking reason.Also IIRC Nexus is based out of the UK, so they're getting the stakes driven into them by the hyperauthoritarian government there (they deserve it, but it's still a problem for the real world)
>>746706761>valve>implement a functional tag systemLMAO!!!!!!
>>746703787We should all email gabe to reconsider this shit is going to be bad.
>>746706761>Valve>Effortkek
>>746706817Gabe doesn't run SteamDB you dumb fuck.
>>746706743Trump won. You lost.
>>746706761Valve shouldn't be in control of this stuff, but after the steam2 leak (and the breach of test branches on new releases caused by steamdb the other day) I assume they'll start clamping down on how public their data is.
>>746706794check sales and Marathon charts
>>746705964woke games that are doing poorly will have their CCU/other player statistics hidden
>>746706817>>746706837Kek gamers sure are dumb
>>746703884>forced sign up>malware installer>deleting any non sweet baby approved modsDeranged troon detected.
>>746706761Pretty sure unless they got a court to legally declare they have to offer it like how they got the aussie courts to force the refund issue they probably won't show historical accounts of pricing directly since it might mean major publishers yanking shit off the store.
>>746706817unless it's about a knife or a yacht, he's not going to give a shit. he's largely hands off these days except for the occasional showing of his face at Dota2 events.
We must join with them, /v/. We must join with Nexus Mods. It would be wise, my friend.
>>746706761valve doesn't do anything that doesn't earn them any moneyonly reason steamdb exists is because valve keeps all this shit public, steamdb guy has just consolidated it on an easily searchable sitewhy nexusmods owners (chosen) would want it is beyond me, but I guess they're just really interested in the data of what people are playing, what games they own and how much they're spending on steam
>>746706806>custom extra monster mods (eg White Fatalis) from MonHun World for no fucking reasonhttps://www.nexusmods.com/monsterhunterworld/mods/5170Huh weird. Looks like White fatalis mod to me.
>can't even look up game sales without some jewish middleman anymorefuck the modern internet
>>746704027>naziMade up propaganda word. If you use it you are a brainwashed lunatic.
>>746706756I'm not sure I buy the conspiriatorial angle of that. Furry community is just a place that's always tried to be overaccepting of everything(putting aside the split that caused burned furs to emerge.)It's a natural place to migrate if you have any kind of degeneracy, as long as you have some link to anthros as well.
>862oh. bait.
>>746704938Thanks fren
>>746704321not any more LOL
>>746705212>but what was SteamDB even for?Better game search with vastly superior filter options than Steam itselfVarious internal game data sets ( past depots, smallest update changes, manifests, game directory file structures etc. )And bunch more other smaller things
>>746704041goodaltmers are the nazis
>>746705915Nexus is based in the UKThe UK government is going full MaoistAll your data will be sold to 5 eyes and that is just a fact of reality
>>746705504"requires a login" is all the reason I need to despise them, no culture war drama needed.
>>746706670nta, users of the site can log into their steam account to aggregate a bunch of extra data like how much their account is worth in total, how much money they spend on individual games (microtransactions and such), etc. In the current version you could nuke all of that including your login.
>Nexus Mods buys out SteamDB>huge fucking shitstorm>Good Smile Company buys out 4chan>*cricket sounds*
>>746705212>but what was SteamDB even for?before Steam implemented something to show you when an early access title wasn't being regularly updated, was an easy thing to show how PirateSoftware was doing fuck all with his shitty little game. now he just does barely anything patches just to avoid that label in early accesshttps://steamdb.info/app/567380/patchnotes/
place your bets, will they>remove player counts altogether>keep the player counts, just fudge the numbers either agenda driven or just for bribes
>single person who ran site wanted outI don't see what else could have happened.
>>746707057>In the current version you could nuke all of thatcan they prove you that data is delete or just "dude trust me"
>>746706916It was an earlier one dumbass
>>746705950Anon that literally means "the stuff free right now will not become non-free", the "today" and "currently" are qualifiers for the type of things that will remain free, not the duration. Though with that said it's all bullshit anyway, see >>746706013
>>746706928Conspiracy just means a group of people coordinating to do nefarious actions under the guise of legitimate operation.Which is simply undeniable, that's literally all the internet is now.Even 4chan jannies are a bunch of opportunistic power grabbing retards with no principles.
>>746703787>the internet we once loved is gone>that's why I will help make it worse in the same wayWhat did he mean by this?
>>746707123open source, but eh, he wanted a paycheck, can't fault him for that.truth is, if people really cared, they'd just create an exact copy of steamDB again
>>746707113u wot m8
>>746707113>>Good Smile Company buys out 4chan>>Good Smile Company, Inc. is a Japanese video game developer and hobby product manufacturer headquartered in Chiyoda, Japanwhy should anyone care about this
>>746707118they can't fudge numbers because it will be easy to verify from steam, what they can do is not report information on evil nazi games and hide player counts of struggling "right side of history" games
>>746707113The company that makes anime figurines?
>>746705212>what was SteamDB even for?It used to be good for seeing if devs were working on updates on private branches but valve patched that out a while ago.There's a ton of hidden builds that steamdb knows about that aren't listed in public though, pic related were all listed accidentally for 1 day before getting removed.Now that it's part of nexusmods the odds of them leaking again just increased a lot
>>746703884I've earned $900 on Nexus over the past 3 years. It's a pretty good site ngl.
>>746707165>paycheck?
>>746707118Player counts have been fairly worthless for some time now since they were targeted as marketing space.Heuristics are simply superior as a method for evaluating this since they're hard to fake and painfully dead games are obvious anyway.
>>746707223if you post unreal engine ini mods for DP please kys yourself

>>746707152Conversely, when you start seeing conspiracies in everything, especially things that are easily explained in other ways, you just might be apophenic.
>>746707263i didn't see anything about a sale. just a hand off.
>>746707331:)
>>746707182>>746707209GSC acquired a 30% stake in 4chan when Hironaga bought it.
>>746707350oh. /v/ making up shit again.just thought there might have been more info.
>>746707296Desperate reiteration of thought terminating cliches are an admission that you recognize the truth of the statement you're trying to dismiss.
>>746707182>>746707206>>746707209Do you people really think that moot just handed the keys to hiroyuki when he retired? No, hiroyuki bought 4chan from him for 8 million dollars and almost none of that was his own money.
Are you going to commercialise it?We're going to be straight about this rather than dance around it: yes, SteamDB needs to make money. What xPaw has built - and kept running largely through personal dedication and community donations - is an extraordinary achievement. Giving it the team, infrastructure and long-term investment it deserves is how we protect that work and ensure SteamDB can thrive for the next decade and beyond.That said, we want to be smart about it, and it’s very important that we don’t degrade SteamDB from the amazing resource it is today. While we could simply put ads on the website, we don’t think that’s the right approach here. So we’ll be looking at other, lighter-touch ways to make the website sustainable. This may include use of partnerships, integrations, and affiliate links with publishers when you buy a game after visiting SteamDB. These are harder to do, take longer to set up, and may not show the benefits immediately, but we’re happy to take that hit in the interest of doing things right.Here's what it does not mean: no paywall on anything that exists today, no selling your personal data, no login walls, no degrading the site to squeeze value out of it. Enshittification is when an owner extracts value while the product gets worse. Our plan is the opposite direction: put money and people in so the product gets better. Judge us on what we ship.
>>746703884>>746704027Are they still banning whitewashing mods whilst at the exact same time hypocritically allowing mods that make white characters black? If so, then no, they are not based.
>>746703787LMAO
>>746703787Marathon won, get fucked chart posters.
>>746706864>steam2 leak???
>>746704027>killing children is a-ok>removing transflags? you get banned
>>746707485Skyrim/Oblivion mods have mods that turn black characters white. They dont' give them retardedly obvious names or descriptions.
>>746707124See, that's the part I didn't want to say out loud. Even if it was certainly deleted, you wouldn't find me typing my steam login into an external site, because who knows what's left behind anyway. And if there is something left behind, whoever will be in charge of this and tries to make the site "profitable" will have field day with it. Or at the very least with the future prospect of not letting users just delete it afterwards.
>>746707148Right of course. It doesn't count.Surely it wasn't that it was Nazi fatalis, not white fatalis that was banned.
>>746704329>Seems like a smart moveI hate it when people keep saying that low integrity actions are "smart moves". >A MAN SOLD OFF HIS SON TO SLAVERY BUT IT'S ACTUALLY A SMART MOVE BECAUSE HE GOT A LOT OF MONEY FOR IT AND HE CAN JUST HAVE ANOTHER KID ANYWAYThat's obviously a hyperbole, but you get the gist.
>>746707259I post actual mods and mod tools faggot. I'm personally responsible for over 2M unique downloads for a massively popular game because I made it easy for people to mod it. Some people actually started small side hustles selling shit because of that too.
>>746707776>SOLD OFFnobody sold off anything in this case
>steamdb joins the worst website in the planetwell fuck
mega retarded
>>746707776It's a smart move because it's being given away to a group with the means of keeping it going rather than letting it die off
>>746703787how will they ruin it?
>>746707840>A MAN LETS HIS WIFE GET FUCKED BY STRANGERS AND IT'S A SMART MOVE BECAUSE THEY ARE THE ONES PAYING FOR BIRTH CONTROL
>>746703787Oh no nothing will change however will the world cope.
>>746707582>>746703884Right, so this is bullshit. Nexusmods is woke shit and has been ever since it started demanding logins. Because that's how you get your foot in the door to get people in stockholm syndrom and agreeing with your insanity.
BLAME FUCKING VALVETHEY HAD YEARS TO HIRE THIS GUY AND BUY THE SITE
>>746703787why does a modding site need direct access to valves database? someone should warn gabe tranny's are targetting him
>>746708046Probably throw ads on it unless you pay for an ad-free account or something.Site doesn't do anything another person couldn't build, it's just convenience and already built.
doesnt nexus make the vortex app, the WORST most fucking confusing mod manager ever
>>746708109what a retarded analogy
>>746704329See fandom wikis and how cancerous they areNexus mods is the equivalent but for mods
>>746708220It's not confusing at all. It's straightforward as hell.It just doesn't have much purpose since MO already existed.
>>746708283Not really.
>>746704014these people are shady as all hellt. keep getting approached by them to sell my game to them
>>746703787>>746705915First course of action will be to completely hide player charts behind a paywall or outright wipe that data at the request of big-game publishers for their titles. That Estonian nıgger doesn't care about posterity. Fυck him.
>>746705207BASED
>HE SOLD OUT HE SOLD OUT>HE RAN IT FOR FREE FOR A DECADE AND A HALF BUT HE STILL SOLD OUTNone of you were ever gonna take it off him and do right by it.
>>746705529Damn bro, he has you seething.
>>746708454so he sold out
>>746705396>I've never even heard of nexus modshow? genuine question
>>746703787Why should I care? Isthereanydeal is better for finding deals
>>746708529you probably have to actually sell something to sell out.
>>746708298>not confusing at all
>>746708574yeah, his site.
>>746708581Correct. It simply just doesn't have a real reason to exist is all.
>>746708529Not relevantYou were never going to step up and do what he did yourselfYou get what you fucking deserve and in this case it's jews
>>746708392hey brötherman can you spare 20 bucks
more like steamDNB
>>746707816Didn't know they pay you for your mods that's cool. $900 doesn't sound like a lot for 2M downloads but it's better than nothing
>>746708590exactly. nothing was sold.
>>746708220I thought it was just me, using that shit fucking sucks and I went back to downloading mods manually
>>746703884Why do I need an account, then?
>>746708673No, his site.
>>746708689exactly. nothing was sold.
>>746708730No, his site.
NOOOOOOOO THIS IS AN ATTACK ON /v/ CULTURESTEAMCHARTS DOESN'T SHOW DAY 1 STATS
>>746704014>huge chunk of the PC modding ecosystem held up by cryptobrosthe fuck? how come no there's no sizeable alternative to this beyond Steam Workshop?will Gayben win once again by doing nothing?
>>746708678i swear modern modders are sub-100 iq. it's simple as shit. it's explicitly designed for you retards who get "confused" over mod organizer 2
>We don't track problematic games. We also don't track player counts because that has lead to the failure of radically reformative games like Dustborn and Mixtape.
>>746708220whats confusing about it
>>746708834I would rather use a cli than some gay gui
>>746708236It's a great analogy and an actual real anecdote as a cherry on top.
>>746706020Furries were never a problem. It was the homosexual community pretending to be furry to get away with homesexuality (same as "lolicon" do now).>>746706563You're either very young or lying. I'd never even heard the term transexual until like 2014. It was transvestite usually before that and it was a joke in movies, not something real.
>>746708834holy cope
>>746708742loop to following for further repeats>>746708730loop closed
>>746708902He sold his site.
>>746708175Any company remotely related to tech is always hungry for more databases or ways to build/maintain their databases. A company managing a modding site wanting access to the latest information about trending games and what not isn't that far fetch especially if their owners are looking to commercialize or even just sell the company.>On 16 June 2025, Robin Scott announced he had sold Nexus Mods to... Chosen, a growth-focused gaming company. In light of previous statements by Victor Folmann, a co-founder of Chosen, who previously has advocated for in-app purchases, NFTs, and cryptocurrencies...
>>746708046They're going to look into partnerships and affiliate linking, and then they're going to add analytics. Supposedly, no ads and no paywalling. But I don't believe them for a second. Every free service that tries to "go legit" like this always becomes a complete piece of shit.https://steamdb.info/faq/?guildid=215154001799413770
>>746703884>>746703787>nexusmods own steamdbEWW
>>746708870It's not. There's a lot of kids here who need YouTube tutorials on how to operate anything.Saying it's useless is 100% correct. Claiming it's "confusing" is a huge self-report of retardation.
>>746708934im too dumb to understand how that correlate but i guess it kinda makes sense
Your steam data will be soldThey're going to start making you log in and enter your email, your birthday, and your username and you'll be integrated into your big data profile and you will be tracked even by the game you play, the games you buy, when you buy them, and the price range you buy them atYou will be tracked and sold.
>>746708861Pretty much, also they're gonna make bank on publishers paying to hide player count.
>>746708908I haven't found anything that said the site was sold. Is this another "/v/ is making shit up" thing? Link?
>They'll neuter the best steam search engine FUCK
>>746703884Link me to all the lolicon mods on nexus then
>>746709034it's up top, he sold his site.
>>746708897You don't need to tell us your own feelings anon.
>>746704994If I've never used steamdb I don't need to do this right? Or did they scrape everyone's info and then let you opt out later like faggots
>>746705531Legal obligations don't mean shit when nobody's enforcing it.
>>746709071That doesn't say he sold it.So "/v/ is making it up" then. Thanks.
They'll get rid of steam players. Ban anime games and force you to use id
>>746709156He sold it, Anon.
>>746709156it's just some low-effort trolling.
>This information requires a nexus gold account
>>746707223>$25 a month>goodare you fucking retarded or what
Time to nuke my account I guess>but they already have your dataIt's more about making a stand. This is bullshit
>>746704660you will be banned if you say anything against troons on nexus. if your mod changes any tranny flag or troon pronouns minn eny game ever , it will be deleted and you will be banned.this goes against the very principal of user modding.Tranexus mods is compromised as fuck.
>>746708964last i used it was 4 years ago and not once did anything work, load, whatever. >>746708874open winrar, place the mod files in, delete meta-inf... ah those were the days...........>>746709102holy cope
>>746703884Nigger
>>746707223And Nexusmods earned 100k+ thanks to all the ads, traffic and subscriptions generated from you. Good job, fucking goy.
>>746706678That's the Steam Spy dude.
>>746704329>Is there an actual reason to be mad about this, or is it weird culture war shit again?Thread makes it obvious that it's solely culture war nonsense.
>>746704010>BLANK STILL EXISTS?? OH MY GOD I TOTALLY AM SO PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE THIS IS SOOOOO IRREELEVANT TO MEfuck off back to redd it faggot
As long as I can look up product IDs for creamapi I don't care.In fact I hope chartfags suffer as much as possible.
>>746704010Why do clueless idiots always pop up in every single thread?The guy is asking if it still exists, even though there are threads here every day about Steam stats via SteamDB.That's crazy son
>>746705565Normalfags ruined it.
>>746704321Steam DB won't be verry accurate when>tranny game comes out>it flops>erm sorry Steam DB data for this game is not available cause that's HECKIN TRANSPHOBIC!
>>746707223>$900 over 3 yearshttps://youtu.be/gEhohQLN30U
>>746703884>nexusmods is based in israel nowftfy
>>746709285>last i used it was 4 years ago and not once did anything work, load, whatever.Typically anons don't proudly declare that they're retarded.
>>746709417likewise
>>746704329Should have just let it die or handed it off to the community every time you sell a site to a corporate platform it always gets worse see mobygames forcing you to pay to access the same content that used to be free
>>746703787>serving gaming communitiesDid they miss the part where they didn't do that and only pander to wokies?
>>746709398Money is money, especially coming from something you did in your spare time for fun.
>900 in three years Lol dumb goy
/v/ is just mad because steamdb was lyingWoke games actually have billions playing them and are the most profitable games ever made, as the new steamdb will show
>>746704010it's pretty useful for many things, it has regional price history for example
>>746709285Vortex is the most braindead mod manager. If nothing was working you're legit fucking retarded.
>>746709553What kind of stupid golem sees that the player numbers are high and only then plays it? At least look at the fucking trailer to see if it sucks.
>>746709553LolLmao
>>746703884account still required, retard. There should be a kemono just for that fucking site.>Sorry, due to toxic activity, the woke game with 0 players cannot show player counter
>>746709553I'm sure mixtape sold millions of copies
>>746703787OH FUCK OH FUCK OH FUCK
>>746709641According to new steam db it sold trillions actually
>>746709553I know you're just baiting but Steam itself is what reports player numbers and SteamDB only keeps a record of it. That's how the other chart sites work too. It'd be very easy to verify if they were lying.
HOOOOOOOLY SHIIIIIIIIIT!!! MARATHON IS AT THE TOP!
>>746709678>company shuts down a year laterThis was the chuds fault
>>746704860>SteamDB needs to make moneyNo.
>>746709584my condolences for your lobotomy
most realistic outcome i see of this, they'll shadowban any "offending" game from the search, even if you look it up correctly through tags
>>746709715i wonder how many play this on console
>>746709786>no ugood job champ
That someone is getting worked up because he's insistent he isn't stupid as fuck for getting confused over Vortex is hilarious.
>>746709398>>746709347>>746709232It's better than nothing, which is what you retards actively advocate for. Remember the seethe over paid Steam mods? Regardless, I don't consider mods real income, it's just something fun to do on the side. The money is a bonus.
Reminder nexus isn't just woke but owned now by nft techbros Ntf advertising shoved in your face
>>746707816900 for 2M download is pitiful
>>746709925It's because of people like you that mods are lame and gay. Good goy.
>>746709930now that is actually something to be concerned about instead of the bullshit people have been crying about in herethanks for the heads up
>>746705050It did need money via donations, but I recall xPaw saying it didn't really cost all that much since SteamDB is mostly text while anything heavy like videos and screenshots are just embedded from Steam. What's bullshit about the FAQ is that they claim there are "long-standing backlog items" like SteamDB needs any new features or big changes.
>>746703884Nexus Mods for CIA infiltrated and monitor everything and pay their moderators to scrape wrongthink
>>746709970The 2M unique downloads is from people using my toolkit to build mods. I only have 300k unique downloads myself. They usually kick me back like 3-5% of their DP (donation points) per month, which is $10 or so.
>>7467100694chan is more monitored than fucking nexusmods, anon. that leak from months back had government emails for a good number of jannies around here.
Is that why the site was bugging yesterday? Fuck theyre already manipulating the code
>>746705212Deports for sure, that's how you downgrade.
>>746710081I don't know dude it feels so scummy. The amount of work needed to build frameworks and tools that then the community use to make mods is insane.Imagine if praydog, the guy responsible for making re-engine + uevr modding possible at an incredible level of quality was only getting a pitiful 2k USD for all his work that his above and beyond what a random software engineer could do...It just feels exploitative.
>lol I hope the one platform mod developers actually earn income on diesI like how people will say this unironically while using Nexus
>>746710163bullshit@bullshit.gov was the common way people made throwaway emails back before everything needed 2FA,
Why is everybody mad, doesn't steamdb just piggyback off of steam's API? Someone'll just do steamdb 2
>>746709913>nexus lurking oh no
>>746704214Wrong.Nightreign for example has mods to turn the black character white. Comments have some trannies crying about it, but they're being removed if you juat flag the comment.
>>746710342maybe if the platform wasn't shit no one would say it
>>746710367outrage cultureit permeates all social media nowadays from all sides. i think it's literal addiction for some at this point.
>>746710339I also make open source software so maybe it's different for me. I've spent hundreds of hours developing a piece of software with thousands of downloads only to get $5 in donations. At least Nexus will give you something. You can't get shit out of people unless you flood their eyes with ads or lock it behind a paywall.
>>746709930>wokies are actually grifterswoah, never saw that coming!
>>746703787Terrible news to wake up to. Taking something as free in the liberty sense and free of charge as Steamdb and giving it to an entity as ideologically oppressive and money-seeking as Tranny Mods.I can't think of a worse combination. Probably even Walmart would run Steamdb better. It's so fucking over
>>746703787i don't use either of these things
How likely is it that Nexus starts running cover for certain games by fucking with the backend?
>>746710367Nope, actual hard to scrape data was going there. And a bunch of formatted data that is not easy to collect/display/organize.This is basically burning down the platform. Nexus Mods is not trustworthy, he just threw 10 years of dev time in the garbage.And remember, SteamDB is not open-source, this will not be easy for anyone to replicate
