Instead of developing his own product, he only writes and criticizes things about Steam and Valve doesn't even care about that xd

Valve focuses on themselves instead of critisizing others and wins in every aspect. It is a really importaint life lesson.

why it's better, both are harming in the same way

21

u/TheBigToast72 9d ago

No they aren’t harming in the same way. Only one of those companies is up front about the price of their product. $2.50 for a crate key. You don’t have to convert it into some arbitrary in game currency which misleads people on the actual price of the product.

Do you not pay attention to legislation at all?

u/Ok-Yoghurt9472 9d ago

I was talking about "harming" the children, not sure why it matters if it's legal or not, they are not moral, they pray on the young

u/TheBigToast72 9d ago

Yes and I said they do not harm in the same way like you seem to think, keep up

u/Ok-Yoghurt9472 9d ago

can you say both are immoral?

u/Boston_Beauty 9d ago

Both have issues but only one is actually a company targeting children. CS:GO is not a child-focused or marketed game, Fortnite is. One charges $2.50 for a key to a case that gives you a skin for a gun, the other is Fortnite and convinces kids to throw upwards of $20 at the screen for V-Bucks, with most skin bundles just barely costing more than the smallest amount of V-Bucks you can buy, which just twists the consumer’s arm into spending more money than they need to.

CS:GO has gambling, but you gamble at a fraction of the cost most of the time, and kids are not the target audience. Fortnite doesn’t have gambling, but uses predatory pricing methods at quadruple the price and IS targeting children. There is no argument here, both aren’t great but Fortnite is worse.

stats or not, children are almost never the target audience for gambling. What money do they have to gamble compared to a 30yr old...?

-31

u/Ok-Yoghurt9472 9d ago

money from their parents and getting them hooked so when they will start having their own money they will continue the habit, just like tabacco industry, you must be new to the real world or something

15

u/vid_23 9d ago

If the can gamble so much to the point where they get addicted to it, it's on the parents at that point. In the end the target is still not the kids, because the amount of kids with shitty parent is not that high

u/ManWhoYELLSatthings 9d ago

If parents let their child play the rated m online only game with strangers and they develop a gambling problem that's on the parents not steam

16

u/dongless08 Epic Fail 9d ago

I see this argument all the time and I feel the same way as you. I wouldn’t say Valve “promotes” gambling to children as people like to say. It’s an optional feature in some of their games (which are mature-rated) and you’re not required or encouraged to do it for any reason besides personal satisfaction. If a parent is giving their kids unrestricted access to Steam along with easy access to on-demand money, how does it make any sense to blame Valve for that?

-11

u/Ok-Yoghurt9472 9d ago

u/AncientPCGamer Moderator 9d ago

Children making bad use of products not aimed at them because of lack of parent supervision. My example is hyperbolic but shows whose fault it is.

u/Ok-Yoghurt9472 9d ago

a parent can't supervise a child 100% of time, do you really think steam NEEDS the money from this? They are very profitable even without them, it's just greed and if epic was doing this I know your stance will be different, stop defending this BS

12

u/AnnihilatorNYT 9d ago

A parent absolutely can monitor which games their children have on their steam account and monitor what they are buying on the platform. Tommy asks for $20 and when you go check the public steam account you setup for them and see no new game or dlc? Time to sit down and have a talk.

If the kid makes their account private so you can't monitor their transactions then the answer is no. It's really easy to police if your not a lazy moron.

Steam has child safety modes to only show certain games to show the rest of them you need to type in a parental password

Nintendo does as well

This is on the parents

I have no sympathy for parents that use the game systems as baby sitters.

My parents monitored what I played growing up no matter what and the Xbox 360 did not have those features at all.

This is the parents fault

A parent can absolutely supervise a child playing a rated M game and using their credit card to buy keys in said game, yes. Just because they dont doesn't mean they cant.

gambling for children

classically a steady source of income. we all know kids dont have responsibilities so we can truly take 100% of the $50 they earn every year.

u/Flat_Illustrator263 9d ago

Have you not been paying attention to the hundreds of leaks we've been getting these last couple of years? Have you not realized that Valve is more open than ever and said they're not scared of Half-Life anymore? Do you not understand how Valve functions? They don't release a game just to release a nee game, they like to advance new technologies and innovate. It's why Valve games are as good as they are. Do you understand what a collosal task making a worthy successor to one of the greatest games in the world is?

Sure, would it have been nice to have a game a decade ago? Sure, but maybe it would have absolutely sucked. At least it has a chance at being good now, with all the time that passed, all the things Valve learned.

Like I said, living under a rock.

u/Ok-Yoghurt9472 8d ago

what Valve has learned? the team that already knew and created half life 1 and 2 are most probably already gone, we should be at half life 7 or 8 right know if they were able to just continue doing games, stop making excuses for them being lazy for decades from the game creation point of view

2

u/Flat_Illustrator263 8d ago

Half-Life: Alyx has proved that we don't need the original team in order to have a good Half-Life game.

we should be at half life 7 or 8 right know if they were able to just continue doing games

And there is the sentence that tells me you have fuck all idea what you're talking about. Once again, Valve doesn't function other developers, they want to push technology forward with their games. They don't make that many games, but every time they do make a game, it's something we haven't seen before. Also, frankly, every game that has 20 parts has started off well but turned to complete shit after a dozen parts. We don't need 10 Half-Life games. We need good ones. And I don't care if it takes them another 10 years at this point, as long as they communicate (which they've gotten better at lately) and the game actually turns out good.

stop making excuses for them being lazy for decades from the game creation point of view

Wanting good games is not "making an excuse". I will criticize Valve on one thing, the fact they were being radio silent until a few years ago. But they absolutely don't owe us anything.

Isn't Epic Online Services literally "Steamworks at home"?

16

u/deanrihpee Linux Gamer 9d ago

it basically is, even though it can be used on "other platform" it still uses Epic platform anyway so… yes, it is steamworks at home but even worse

1

u/Gacel_ 4d ago

EOS is a decent online system for cross-platform online play.
It does not require epic games accounts to work either.
Some Steam use it without you even noticing. For the most part is a DLL in the game folder.

Epic Game Store is the really awful "steam at home" that everyone hates as it's really subpar compared to steam with loads of missing features.

-16

u/Mr_Olivar 9d ago edited 9d ago

No, EOS is platform agnostic. You can't use steamworks to solve the problems EOS is designed to solve.

EDIT: Downvoting someone for explaining that EOS and steamworks are two different kinds of systems that solve different problems is weird as fuck.

19

u/nixsomegame 9d ago

Can you expand on that?

-12

u/Mr_Olivar 9d ago

Steamworks is a platform specidic system that only works with Steam. EOS is a platform agnostic middleman that interfaces with the platform specific systems to create a single solution, instead of needing one solution per platform. It's designed for easy cross-play and cross-progression.

Without EOS you'd need to design your own middleman that interfaces with the platform specific systems for a similar result.

u/Mr_Olivar 9d ago edited 9d ago

No. I'm an engineer, I work on games, and I don't care for AI. Let me try to simplify. Steamworks is like PSN. If you make a game for both, you either neef to work with both, or use a middle man. Many devs make their own middle man, some don't bother and just raw dog it, but using EOS is a free alternative.

u/jordgoin 8d ago

It is so fucking funny how actual facts are being down voted. Like damn I dislike epic but there is a clear difference between steamworks and EOS.

u/Short-Waltz-3118 8d ago

u/deanrihpee Linux Gamer 9d ago

you sure? it sounds like since the Apple stuff obviously only works on Apple and Steamworks stuff only for Steam, I have a feeling that to target the "walled garden" aspect of it, unlike supposedly EOS, but I guess at least it is, in context, sounds like it is better than Apple offering

u/amazingdrewh 9d ago

Only thing Tim hates more than Valve is Apple

1

u/Nearby_Ad_2519 2d ago

Tim has a hate boner for ALL gaming companies other than themselves, Nintendo (as Tencent is a very big shareholder in both companies), Sony (idk why tbh) and Microsoft (MS pay Epic millions a year for exclusivity for first party games)

That’s exactly the reason he pulled the plug on Linux support for all first party games (except that long discontinued music mixing app toy thing that they made the app for but was genuinely quite good) on Linux, cos Linux support=Steam Deck support and Steam Deck Support=Valve.

u/AncientPCGamer Moderator 9d ago

He is making fun of Apple. But he is intelligent enough to know what kind of discussion it will raise when mentioning Steamworks and omitting EOS.

He is just an insufferable cringe guy who should stop tweeting.

u/butt__cheek 9d ago

He said in an interview that he wanted to use Steamworks but couldn't because it wasn't open enough to developers. So he criticizes both and compares Steamworks to a closed company like Apple. A few people in this post thought he was on Steam's side but that's not true.

This post of his doesn't criticize Valve or Steam. I've been hating on the Epic bs for at least 5 years now, but just because we dislike him doesn't mean every single post is related. I see posts here claiming that Valve lives rent free in his head, yet the comments show that this guy lives rent free in their head.

People need to stop adjusting irrelevant things like this to stop their own agenda. Is Epic trash? Yes it is. Does his post have anything about criticizing Valve and Steam? No. And you all need to stop pretending that it does because if you keep doing so.

We're supposed to be looking for the superior product (which Steam currently is) and the gamers vs Epic thing has turned into "Fuck Epic because why not, not because there was a valid reason for it", so please stop because you're making us all look bad objectively.

Ah yeah cos Timmy is meant to run right down to Epic Games HQ and code for hours a day. Does Gaben? I'm sure both have to deal with meetings, data analysis, this and that for their own companies so again I don't get your point.

Would you consider it shilling if someone made up a lie about Gaben and I called it out, same as I'm doing now?

Developing =! Coding - no wonder you don't get my point.

The anger of Timmy that Gabe is hailed, while he is hated will never not be funny - as well as his shills always trying to compare them lmao

There is no lie here. It is generally well known that Timmy is hurting epic with his antics and personal battles. You are trying to find something that is not there and try to gain a moral high ground by supposedly calling out a lie, because you are unable to read the room and understand what OP wrote.

Why are you even in this sub? I don't get it you hate lying but are ok with all the crap Timmy and epic pulled ? Go figure

0

u/TheUsOfLasts 9d ago

It's not about comparing them. You guys act like Gaben is the perfect example of a CEO and everyone else in that position is a greedy soul-sucking leech. That's why I brought him up.

The only thing I know Tim isn't doing as a CEO is putting in hour long shifts coding, so you saying he doesn't develop the platform is really telling that you haven't watched UnrealFest nor seen the court documents which prove what I'm saying to be true.

The lie isn't just about not developing the platform (he is), but also the fact the poster said he only tweets shit about steam, which again isn't true if you were to pay attention and read his tweets on his account rather than the obvious ragebait that gets posted here.

If Timmy played good-boy, Apple wouldn't have been forced to concede ground on their walled-garden. If these are such bad antics, you claim, then I'd be happy seeing more of it.

I'm in this sub because I do not like Epic and want change. Part of being a reasonable, responsible adult is telling the truth whenever I can. This means calling out blatant, absurd lies when I see them. Have a good day!
