Thread 715062294

gamers are rising up again and writing anti-valve manifestos
is this the end of gaben and his empire?

>"gamers"
>actually just one autist

>>715062294 (OP)
Post his "mods".

Real gamers are tired of anti-woke platforms and grifters.

>>715062294 (OP)
>Thank you Epic™

So he's basically just shilling for Epic Games and more DRM? Nigga, just pirate

>>715062483
he made this and I never even heard of this

>Its valves fault that publishers don't want to sell their games elsewhere
You couldn't buy games from just anywhere to begin with, since that was usually at the discretion of the retailer.

its probably a tranny. these days there aren't real humans in any kind of computer jobs. and seeing as it was successful, we can say for sure that it wasn't an indian.

>>715062979
Funny thing is Epic's DRM is worse than Steam's.

>>715063059
wasn't this the autist that added DRM checks to his mods?
I don't want people like him to breathe let alone make mods.

>>715062294 (OP)
>Steam bad because DRM and bloat!
>goes on to fucking fellate Epic and Microsoft Store
>puts DRM in his software
I've never heard of this pillock and I now know to never download his garbage.

>>715063059
Never heard of it.

So to spite Valve he deleted his 20 years old account he spent God knows how much $ on ?

Good.

Valve screwed over the Artifact fanbase by cancelling the Artifact 2.0 beta without even allowing users to invite friends like they said they would in January 2021 and does not deserve your financial support for these gross consumer-unfriendly practices.

>>715062294 (OP)
This retard was thanking Epic for not doing something they definitely did ( abandoning their old games like Unreal Tournament )
I can smell the scent of whatever grift he is scheming from miles away.

Fuck timmy tencent.

Epic screwed over the Unreal Tournament fanbase by cancelling the Unreal Tournament alpha without even allowing users to contribute to the development of the game like they said they would in 2014 and does not deserve your financial support for these gross consumer-unfriendly practices.

STOP TIM SHITTY FROM KILLING GAMES!

>>715063059
isn't this the same faggot who made sure his mods wouldn't work if the game wasn't running from the steam folder
kwab

>>715063059
I've only used this once in my entire life and it was because of Nier Automata's awful PC Port and it only made it slightly more playable

>>715062294 (OP)
He wasn't even complaining about anything important like the concept of ownership. He was having a spergout because Steam kept interfering with his Playstation controller settings and he's somehow the only autist in the world who refuses to switch to Linux.
>Windows is a monopoly
>They fuck with controller HID protocols in favor of Xinput instead, to force you to buy an Xbox controller for PC games
>This fucks with Dinput (Sony controllers) and Sinput (Nintendo controllers)
>Valve saw this nonsense a decade ago and had the Steam client override Microsoft's bullshit when active
>Now gamers can use any controller they want and it works the same on Windows and Linux
>This guy wanted his own custom solution by modifying dlls
>Valve's fix kept overriding his and changing settings
>He didn't find any way to disable it, so he had a melty
>In his manifesto, he told people to get their games from EGS and the Microsoft store instead

The replies mocking him are also pretty funny

>>715064309
wow, what a complete and utter sperg

>>715063059
Never heard of this either. Never seen a mention here, or on pcgamingwiki, or when googling a problem.

>>715064430
>Fun fact: those are better store fronts. No toxic Steam Community crap, no review bombing, no Nazi avatars
nice, trannies are finally leaving steam

>>715064202
he is right tho

>>715064309
>Steam kept interfering with his Playstation controller
No I'm also constantly bitching about it, Steam is cancer and holding back the entire industry by forcing every controller to use the Steam controller layout

>>715064925
So file a bug report. They update this shit all the time even if it's some tiny edge case.

>>715065461
It's not a bug, it's a feature. Everything a controller does need to be mapped to a Steam Controller button.
The PS4 touchpad can't be a touchpad because the Steam controller doesn't have one, you can only define it as a few buttons

>>715063474
I was sure that you necked yourself by now.

>>715065653
>The PS4 touchpad can't be a touchpad
When I used it a while ago the touchpad worked just fine.

>>715062294 (OP)
>manifestos
who even reads those unless it was written by a mass shooter?

>>715063298
Yes.

>>715065653
My ps4 controller functions perfectly fine anon, I use the touchpad as a touchpad with literally 0 issues via steaminput
You are making shit up to get mad at
Get help

>>715065653
>The PS4 touchpad can't be a touchpad because the Steam controller doesn't have one
It has 2

>>715064202
so it's a boomer with some gripes about steam's bloat 20+ years ago?

>>715065653
>The PS4 touchpad can't be a touchpad
snoys are so fucking retarded lmaooooo

>>715065653
i think you are coo-coo bananas mate because i have used xbox, playstation, and switch controllers on steam for quite a while now and it's always amazed me how well it all works

>>715064609
>>no review bombing
can't review bomb if you don't have reviews kek

>>715062294 (OP)
>some tranny is unhappy with valve
>SEE? VALVE IS LE EVIL
>over a million and a half people sign a petition against other companies
>DO YOU WANT TO KILL GAMES!!????

why are they so dishonest

>>715062294 (OP)
Steam literally lets me run pirated games through proton without any attempt to hide they are pirated games on my part.
You can literally use steam to play games from ANYWHERE lmfao

>>715062294 (OP)
I want to know what the special k guy thinks about the fact that microsoft killed gfwl and basically told everyone who used it to go fuck themselves

imagine shilling the microsoft store because valve hurt your feefees
I would have believed him if he only shilled GOG but this retard straight up tells people that they should sub to gamepass and use EGS

>>715064202
>buy game
>crack steam drm myself using prebuilt software for that purpose
oh noooo what will I ever do
lol, some fucking modder he is that he doesn't know that steam drm is basically just there out of obligation

>>715063257
Both of you are awful, be more like GOG just download the game from the browser. No Client/Luncher nonsense, no DRM needed, no legally binding contract that says you don’t own the game files and no internet connection required.

>>715066256
lots of practice

>>715063403
not only that he accidentaly nuked all his guides and posts because he thought closing the account they would still remain lmao

>>715066371
i wonder how much he was paid

>>715066420
it's a boomer. modding the game to run better is fine but BREAKING THE HECKIN LAW? you best watch your back, bucko

>>715064430
why is everyone in the comment section insane?

>>715063059
I have. It's pretty neat and I used it to fix the stuttering in Lego Marvel Superheroes, but the dev is also absolutely unhinged. I still remember when he spent hours of his life shilling Denuvo on the Steam forums.

Schizo retard is a schizo retard, more at eleven.

this nigga named himself after a damn breakfast cereal lmao

>>715062294 (OP)
>nooooo you have to support my 30 year old operating system
I bet 98% of the Win98 era games he's on about don't even have DRM. He could probably copy the files over and play without working Steam.

>>715062294 (OP)
valve messed with the wrong gamer

>>715069130
I'm dah Jokah, baybee!

>>715063257
Steam has the same dependency that EGS has for online connectivity for verification. The difference is that EGS has no traffic therefore they run smaller servers that regularly go down when something big happens.
>t. bought Mechwarrior 5 on EGS because it was a timed exclusive, successfully refunded it because I couldn't play for the first 3 days of owning it due to GTAV being their free game and overloading their servers, and then later bought it on GOG before pirating every DLC release because I'm sick and fucking tired of games releasing with a $120 surcharge for the actual part of the game that matters

>>715067390
Him being a boomer has nothing to do with it seeing as how boomers are generally the ones who support piracy while zoomers typically deepthroat publisher boots. Special K guy is a dumbass but not because he's a boomer.

>>715064202
He's actually right, though. Valve stated that you'll always be able to play your games and promised if anything bad happened, they'd release some code ensuring you could always play your games. Yet they keep upping requirements for feature-bloat that nobody wants as most arguments against arbitrary difficulties or bans, even on /v/, turn into
>why would you actually care about the workshop
>who actually needs the forum what is wrong with you
>does anyone give a shit about being able to leave reviews, who cares
>>achievements
Steam got it's initial support on promises that games would remain playable yet support for hardware and software keeps ending for arbitrary reasons, which is fucking awkward since a non-negligible amount of games run suboptimally or not-at-all on newer operating systems that Steam now lists as a minimum requirement.

Valve has promised an option to continue playing games you bought yet it's been decades without such a promise ever being fulfilled once. It is factually an unfulfilled promise. Dishonest on Valve's end.
