Where's the option to blacklist and hide certain Curators so I never have to see their thing ever again?

Jerusalem posted:Holy poo poo this new front storepage is horrific - I thought they were going to leave things as they were but give people the option to add in these new features if they wished. This is just an ugly mess and an overload of irrelevant information. I just want the new releases/coming soon stuff and daily/midweek/weekend deals front and center like they used to be. What the hell is Explore Your Queue and Curators and how do I get rid of them? I have to agree. It's a garish mess. We got Batman & Robin'd.

Recommendation "Serious Sam HD: The First Encounter Since you wish for The Typing of The Dead: Overkill" Eh... because they both use keyboard, right?

Anyway, does anybody want to get on the 4-pack of Gas Guzzlers Extreme? It's a battle racing game with really neat graphics and lots of destruction. It would come down to $5.70 a pop (I can't buy though). -Palpek -This could be you -This could be you -This could be you

Wow this new store is such a lovely clusterfuck. Hopefully they never update the iphone app so I can just buy from there or something. Why should I go out of my way to see a complete new release list? Why do I have to scroll past Youtube retards before getting to the games? Why does telling Steam you dont want a game not actually DO ANYTHING? Why is it telling me to buy Street Fighter 4 because I play a lot of Ultra Street Fighter 4? Think, Gaben!  Yeah lemmie whip my wallet out asap

The good news is that I can stick to my good old strategy after all: Only use the search function in the store to find the game you want to buy, then close the store without browsing anything else and ignore the memory leak that happens when you start looking at recommendations. edit: Oh, the memory leak only happens if you scroll far enough down into your recommendations because the steam web helper remembers your place on the browser, meaning even if you close the store interface it will still remember your place there and consume retarded amounts of memory until you switch to a different tab.

The update seemed to start out so well, too. A smaller Big Picture button and the store tells you right off the bat if you own something. Then the poo poo hits the fan. Why cant this be disabled? I cant imagine making it more difficult to get to the games would be helping sales. In fact, the harder MS made it to find XBLA games, the worse the sales got!

God, including this stuff would be fine if it was just optional. Every second game on the featured items list is a useless recommendation and I just want to turn them all off or shunt them off to a completely separate menu item somewhere that I can look at when I choose to.

Has anyone out there happened to run this on an older/less powerful graphics card? They have the GTS 450 as their minimum; I'm still running with a GTX 260. My card is the only thing under specs. I wanna get my Rules of Nature (and 20 gigs of uncompressed video) on.

Why is Starforge being tagged as a "popular new release"? The top 6 reviews more or less tear it apart as unfinished complete poo poo yet the review of the game is "mixed"?

I managed to get Recently Updated removed from the frontpage by clicking "show only owned games" or something and now I can't get it back. It's not that I mind the field gone but it does leave an unused blue area!

I don't hate the new design, but im not a fan of the light blue, and automatic generated recommendations is something that i don't think will work properly ever, resulting in stuff like getting recommended cs 1.6 due to having recently bought cs:go, etc. if it's gonna work it'll need an insane amount of tweaking and edge case detections

This curator thing seems only to reward youtubers. I thought they'll write a script to group/recommend games with similar gameplay qualities better but this is just "hey, look at the trash we reviewed at our channel!". It's completely useless, just like tags. Meanwhile, they just show only the most popular of the new releases pretending Strategy First are not shoveling poo poo directly onto Steam day by day. In two years this could look like XBLA or Play Store where you have to scroll through nameless clones to find one playable game.

My card is the only thing under specs. Actually, on this note, I recall there being some talk like...uh...half a year ago, in the old thread...regarding new Geforce recommendations. Is the GTX 760 still the way to go? Or was it the 780? The more RAM the better (within reason/cost)?

They have the worst customer support, worst refund program, they left choosing the games that get on Steam to people (great idea btw, invite more zero budget anime porn to the platform) or they just let anyone get in if they have a publisher even if their game is borderline unplayable. Now they don't want to even bother with curating the games anymore, better subscribe to ~~goku420~~ read his one line reviews. I know it's printing them money but it sometimes shocks me just how bad Steam is if you look at how it works.

ArfJason posted:Know a friend who is always on the up and up and knows the good poo poo? follow his curator thing My issue isn't with any of the new features, since obviously other people are going to like things I am indifferent about or dislike, but just that there doesn't seem to be any option to opt-out or hide them away if you DON'T want them. I'm never going to use curators or queue (I've read up on it and I still have no idea what the gently caress it actually is) but there they are taking up space and cluttering up the store page. The ability to customize your page to show the features you want and not show the ones you don't would pretty much remove all my issues. When they first started talking about curators I just naturally assumed that it would be an opt-in thing you COULD do but if you preferred (or took no action) that you'd just get the "standard" Steam store page we'd always had in the past. I'm not sure who this messy all-in-one approach benefits.

I dunno I still remember the endless bitching that resulted from La-Mulana or similar games not getting into steam yet again due to it being too closed/steam curators being overloaded as gently caress. Not a fan of the lovely indie deluge but hey, good stuff is making its way in instead of not at all.
