Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Oh, yes, I am quite frustrated, but not so much that I'm going to take this sort of low-effort bait.
Why post at all? Why not just *not buy anything more*? Because if you had done a search you'd have found the very long threads on this subject, and many closed ones to boot - and guess what: they aren't going to change the library either. just a bunch of venting. It's a blizzard of special snowflakes...
The library is fully functional, and actually quite nice. How much time do you honestly spend just browsing games and not... y'know, actually just PLAYING them? Try that, it's a wonder.
How embarrassing.
And so do other digital storefronts, which I will be using until such time Steam gets its act together. Being the supposedly "premiere," "leading" digital PC games marketplace, it's absolutely ridiculous that it offers the single worst, most disorganized and cluttered storefront of all of them.
Opinions are funny things.
5 years ago, none of the eye-junk I was complaining about existed. And the "first world problems" thing really needs to find a hole to lay down and die in. God.
Folks who are sick of whatever it is Steam does that makes them sick are welcome to leave.
Folks who don't mind are welcome to stay.
If you're going to leave, leave. If you're going to stay, stay.
Just kindly not waste anybody's time and bandwidth arguing about it. Nobody is changing a single mind on the topic. Whatever it is that makes you sick today will still be here tomorrow, next week, two years from now, and long into the foreseeable future.
No, the folks at Steam aren't fixing didly squat, not unless you not only leave but also convince a couple million subscribers to follow you. Ain't gonna happen.
Facts. The storefront is littered with spam and distractions - "Games Streaming Now" being the most egregious waste of space. I'm fine with that being an option. Some people actually like watching people play games. I don't know why that is, but whatever. But that has absolutely nothing to do with me browsing the storefront and buying games that appeal to me. It *does* represent a huge double-space block that I have to scroll past to get to the actual things I'm looking for.
Fanboys *would* want people not to complain, wouldn't they.
People are clearly complaining about this in numbers significant to get the sycophants whining and and whinging and insulting en-masse. Wouldn't it be easy to simply offer an - and brace yourself, this is going to be harsh - *option?* A simple toggle-off or opt-out? Pretty simple solution to avoid an awful lot of ill-will, without taking these "features" away from the people that like them.... for whatever reason.
I'm not suggesting my way is the right way, and everybody is absolutely positively wrong just because they want these features. I'm simply suggesting allowing people to easily customize their storefront from the settings menu. A lot of people, myself included, are becoming more and more distressed with the sheer amount of bloated addons that are cluttering the storefront, and would simply like to be able to turn them off individually. It's not an unreasonable request.
In the meantime, the storefront as it is is too bloated, too cluttered, too straight-up ugly and not nearly end-user friendly enough for me to continue to use it. Shopping for games on Steam has become an absolute exercise in tedium, so I simply won't be doing it.
Calling your opinions facts isn't some kind of magic... and certainly not something that will convince someone over the age of five.
You have some pretty strong opinions and seem rather beligerant they're not universal. Good luck with that.
