NO Kratos, we must be WIDER men!

>>725221043
The more I sit and think about it, the more I hate widescreen.

Wow, 1200 pixels wide now. I bet that would look great on the 1280x1024 monitor I used twenty years ago.

WIDER!

>>725220501 (OP)
Feels so weird

>>725220501 (OP)
>STEAM STORE PAGES ARE NOW WIDER

I'm on a 3:2 monitor and I use vertical tabs so this doesn't really do much for me. Very nice for the 16:9 and ultrawide bros though.

This place is so fucking dead

ultragamers we won

>>725221626
check again

>>725221181
I try not to think about it because it's absolutely retarded. Widescreen should have been an alternative screen model, there's no reason for it to be not just the default but the only one available as well.

fatbros we fucking won

what the fuck
i hope none of you are retarded enough to not maximize their windows and applications

i love wide people wide powder wide powder wide powder

>>725221923
My steam a lot of the time seems to weirdly become a smaller window and I don't care enough to fix it

They fucked up the bottom buttons on any feed news post that needs to be expanded. Bravo Valve.

>>725221829
actual ultrawide people wont spot a difference

>>725221564
>3:2 monitor
Is it the BenQ RD280U? Is it any good?

>>725220501 (OP)
phonebros is this the end for us?

>>725221923
Browser I can see, though I have an ultrawide so mine is in 16:9 mode in the middle with stuff peeking out the sides for me to access, but I've literally never put Steam in fullscreen mode, that's hideous.

>>725222070
It's a little wider but yeah, basically a meme change. I came here for Raidou though and wasn't disappointed.

>>725222167
The Steam android app has handled arbitrary display resolutions without problems for years now.

People use Steam in fullscreen?

>Steam is now Wider
Hopefully it will have been worth the weight

>>725220501 (OP)
FAT
FUCK

>>725221923
The Steam client, like every fucking electron app, has a severe issue with remembering to stay Maximized instead of just a window with the same size.
Bet the stats also don't account for multi-monitor resolutions reading half the surface as empty

>not hidemari wide
WIDER

>can't click anywhere to go to the next screenshot

Never had this issue across 3 PC's and 6 reinstalls.

WIDER

>>725221923
I choose not to maximize the Steam window. There's no point, it's just a launcher, I'm not viewing media on it.

>>725223589
WIIIIIIIDEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRR

>Farthest Frontier is out
Holy shit, nice, forgot about it.

>>725220501 (OP)
Nice

>>725221419
Was looking for this post

>>725220501 (OP)
>main store page still narrow

>>725223521
What do you mean, it's right there?

>>725225376
yeah but before you could click anywhere on the entire picture and it would go to the next one (even the middle somewhere), now you have to be a marksman and hit the arrow
I'm just hoping for a script to revert this dumb change

>>725225684
Didn't even know it was a feature, always used the bottom track thing to change screenshots

>>725220501 (OP)
BTW is Farthest Frontier any good?
Itching for a new city builder.

It's good, but not $30 good, get it on the winter sale.

look how wide and juicy ricochet is
truly, ricochet 2 is confirmed

>Nearly all "About" sections now have gifs/images that aren't wide enough to fit the new size
lol

>>725221000
Its an ok banished-like.

>>725226681
please reach them at gaben@valvesoftware.com

I liked the older layout better desu, the text looks too fat in this one.

>>725226762
Banished was pretty fun and I wish it got updates so that's good to hear

Valve has banned ozempic. Now your games can be nice and fat.

>>725220501 (OP)
Like this does anything. Shit's still centralized to a middle pillar like it's universally formatted for phones.

>>725221923
nonsense. it stays half screen so i can see steam chat and my friend list. you DO have friends don't you?

>>725220501 (OP)
CRT bros, our response?

about time websites starting using horizontal space again

>>725227110
We lost. It's over.

WIDEST KIDS YUNO

Vertical gamers, our response?

>>725227334
We still have tiktok and all of mobile gaming.

>>725221923
>just give your resolution data away bro
never go fullscreen for web apps, your machine can be identified with this especially if JS is enabled

rememeber when people who knew how to use computers made websites and the layout would simply scale? pepperidge farm remembers the world before mobile shit.

how will Timmy cope? this is HUGE

>>725221923
>Gabe li literally fingerprinting the steamies

ahahah

>>725221923
I rarely put anything but web browser and my code editor of choice to fullscreen. Steam I've been keeping in some window size that approximates 900p or less or so for years, because I don't need it to show more.
As it turns out, this update makes some store page elements appear misaligned, heh.

>>725220501 (OP)
>a free shout out to farthest frontier to every single steam user
that is nice of steam

I hate 16:9 and ultrawide with passion. I hope whoever decided this is a standard now gets ASS AIDS.
Still old page look in windowed so I guess this is my life now. It's just more comfortable to look at.

wide load

>>725228867
>right side vertical taskbar
I prefer left side

Left is the logical choice.

>>725221874
The problem isn't with the concept of widescreen, the problem is that 16:9 was a terrible choice as the widescreen standard. 16:10 was always better.

>>725220501 (OP)
Steam won't be good until they get rid of the annoying blue tint.

boberry tier steam dimensions

>>725229438
More often than not I just hit ctrl/alt+f4 to close windows rather than reach for the X

>>725220586
>says it's garbage

>>725220587
We must become wider men

fucking can't stand this. there's a SCREENSHOTS section right at the top of the store page but your fucking SCREENSHOTS there and leave the description for the description.

>shopping for monitor like 15 years ago
>see how some can swivel
>decide I NEED that
>get one that does it
>literally never swivel it, because tall is kind of useless
heh... just as planned

>>725230771
fuck, meant for >>725227334

honestly one of the first actually good steam updates in a long ass time

I didn't get it for anything in particular I just got sold on a gimmick that seemed cool.

>gabe gets thin
>steam gets wider

>>725233949
I've used the feature like two or three times, emulating old arcade games that display vertically.

Text is a specific width for legibility. If you use windows in fullscreen are a drooling retard who has never read anything in their life.

>>725227502

resist fingerprinting

To reflect Lord Gaben's wider body

What's is the ideal gaming device for me, someone who hates PC gaming, hates Steam, hates Valve, hates Gabe Newell, hates half life, and wants the most anti-PC gaming device of all?

Steam Deck is 1280x800
it won't be getting wider

>>725230771
I run my second monitor in portrait because it lets me have multiple windows on it better than a horizontal monitor

>>725239880
Atari

>>725220501 (OP)
How do I make it slim again, I hate this

>>725221923
Why would I run Steam in full screen? There's a ton of dead space that doesn't contain any information for me, even when I'm browsing the store or my library. I didn't even use it full screen when I was running at 1080p, even back then, I only needed it to take up a little less than half my screen to use it comfortably. Now it takes up a little less than a quarter.

On the other hand, my browser is maximized almost 100% of the time, because more horizontal and vertical space is always good. And even then, I still have to increase the scale to ~125% just so the text isn't unusably small.

>>725240368
Which Atari console would be the most ideal for me, since I hate PC gaming?

>>725240479
Go on a diet fatty

>>725239880
It's a little outdated but that's exactly what you're after apparently.

Make it more wider

>>725240752
Come home, Wide man.

>>725228867
Older games and movies that were designed for 4:3 just look better

*doesn't work at all in your path*

>>725227058
You do have a second monitor, don't you?

>>725221943

Man I miss my left side vertical taskbar. Fuck Wangblows 11

>>725241460
that's just because you grew up with that

>>725221923
I haven't fullscreened shit since they stopped making monitors less than 21"

>>725233949
it's nice for plugging in cables

>>725221923
I have always run steam in a window

>>725220501 (OP)
I knew I bought an ultrawide for a reason

>>725220501 (OP)
i love farthest frontier i wish it wasnt grid based though

>>725246647
Is it so you can run all your programs in small windows in the center of it

>>725220587
Rubenesque even.
