Good change, but too bad it's not retroactive. Old games will probably still have ugly logos

>game is shit but it got 10/10 by journowhores
>prohibit faggot devs from putting up "awards"
less false advertising is good

>too bad it's not retroactive
It is though
>As a reminder, these new rules go into effect September 1, 2022 and we ask that all game developers review their graphical assets and make any changes to bring them inline with these new rules.

>Any game not adhering to these rules may have limits to visibility within the Steam store and will be ineligible for featuring in official Steam sales and events.

>It's our goal to make it clear
>Stealthily ban Dungeon Travelers 2, Duel Princess and countless others while letting a title like furry Hitler and shotacon seducing game goes free

Totally crystal clear you guys

>>It's our goal to make it clear
On everything but the porn games.

RIP Hunt Down the freeman.

Any game with a bunch of bought numbers as their marketing is such a turn off anyway. Based steam

kek

>only 1 month to fix your shit before your game is banned from sales
I can already see Jap devs like Bamco fucking it up

>game art says "90% positive reviews!!!!!!!!!!"
>the reviews breakdown is located right under the damn art

>banned from sale
They're just going to blank out the art assets and replace them with an auto generated title.

Then I channeled Valve very well.

>removing ads is censorship
(You)

Wrong thread.

they have a place for these awards on their steam page, they just can't use them for anything that shows up on the store. It's clearly aimed at pajeet shit that they crap out in a month.

>censorship good
every steam page has a space to plaster all your literally who blogsite awards in the same space where the even more worthless metacritic rating goes already. covering your key art with walls of text makes no sense.

Can't wait to see this shit removed.

They'll just end up sticking them on the first screenshot/trailer their page defaults to.

wow, so the only reason they had their stupid future hacker shit during steam sale was so they could have dumb fake game logos as examples for devs, lol

thought already went through that with devs posting bullshots

Good. This shit looks obnoxious as fuck. I don't need to see review scores for games I already own, and there's already a goddamn reviews section on their storepage if this is for people interested in buying it.
totally didn't forget anything.

kinda neat that all their examples were pre-planned as dogshit from the steam sale and they didn't have to call out actual games (that we all know are guilty)

Dungeon Travelers 2 and Duel Princess are not porn games.

Replicant's mini-capsule looks like shit too.

>make a good looking and attractive artwork for your passion project
>Jim, the marketeer man from your publisher slaps some random numbers on top of your once beautiful artwork thus ruining the most important thing that can attract customers
good for once valve did a good thing

I still can't believe that they have the fucking "91% positive reviews" be bigger than the game's God damn name.

I want to fuck this video game digital distribution service.

Good. Littering this shit with "umptyscrunch faggot critic gave us a thumbs up!!! so just ignore the steam reviews" is obnoxious.

just name your game 95% Metascore

OH NO NO NO NO NO SHITDEVXISTERS... WE NEED TO START WORKING NOW, HECKIN VALVE...
