Dud you’ll have people posting shit in steam forums who haven’t even bought the game bitching and moaning.
I saw a post on the forum for a game I’ve been playing recently and it was “One Year Anniversary: never forget the dev added a pronoun selector at character creation. Never buying this garbage.”
Game in question is Lunacid, and apparently the dev added the pronoun selector specifically to bait the trolls. And the pronouns are literally never used in any capacity. It’s just flavor text.
ETA: I believe steam forums should be locked unless you’ve bought the game in question and played for at least like an hour or so. The damn points shop makes you play your games for at least 2 hours before you can get any of that useless shit, so why not the forums?
Some people are obviously farming clown awards on the Steam Community forums, probably to distract themselves from their pitifully meaningless existence.
As I’ve said before, Steam needs stronger moderation. But barring people who don’t own the game from the conversation is not the solution. Sometimes you have legitimate questions about a game before you buy. Or maybe you own it on another platform.
And they take those clown awards and throw them onto any review that praises said game that they never bought or played. The Steam Community as a whole is…astoundingly stupid.
