The Great Steam Demo Update - Demos can have their own page and reviews
(store.steampowered.com)
Welcome to the game development community! This is a place to talk about and post anything related to the field of game development.
This is absolutely useful for developers and the health of the gaming ecosystem.
In past years, gacha/P2W games have had too many pages and too much traffic, exposing their trash to lure new gamers in the Steam store.
Traditional/buyout games have had unfair exposure conditions. Years ago, I sensed this problem, but I found good games through other channels, so I wasn’t impacted by this condition. However, the competition between buyout games and gacha/P2W games in the Steam Store is absolutely unfair.
So, I am very glad to see Valve changing this condition.
I hope I can see a lot of high-quality demos of buyout games occupying the Steam store page, getting the most exposure instead of gacha/P2W trash.
