Caltrops - Half-Life: Chemical Existence





	[quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"][quote name="jeep"]- the downvotes don't tally with the upvotes, they're counted seperately and only affect the order the games show up in for the voter.[/quote] Oh. [quote]- the comments are key, really. a bunch of the people who make the games are deluded that their game is "basically done" when it's literally years out, and they need some real-world feedback to knock some sense into them. you don't want greenlight turning into fucking webcomics do you?[/quote] Well, I -- [quote]- it's the developers own fault the users rip them without playing it, they are supposed to have a playable demo but 99% of them don't put one. [/quote] But, you see -- [quote]- bans in Greenlight only affect posting comments/discussions, and they seem to last a week. no one lost access to their games, not even the asshole who posted an 'assassinate the president' game[/quote] Wait, which President? [quote]- the broken part of the system is a) not being able to sort stuff I already voted on or whatever, and b) not letting steam users take a cattle prod to the dev of Yeah Jam Fury[/quote] No, in all seriousness, I looked at one game, saw shitty comments and came back here to post. So thank you for the corrections. I don't think the people involved in this have the wit to understand that downvotes can be GOOD. There is such a thing as appealing to the right people. Not in the Roberta Williams way, but in the way where most of Valve's userbase is comprised of idiot manchildren. If Jerry made a game where it's Lode Runner, except he gets fatter after every level and therefore becomes slower and less able/willing to climb ladders, many of the morons over there would downvote it. But because it's Jerry game, it would have lots of funny lines and be entertaining. Anyone downvoting that is saying, "My opinion is worthless." There is no way Valve can catch that. I think what they are going to do is start subtracting downvotes from upvotes and let the games at the top of that list in. I hope I am proven wrong. It's amazing to me that Impulse didn't try this first. I guess they used up all their resources suing Alexandria Miseta. I think we should do a long bets thing on whether or not someone loses their Steam account due to Greenlight drama, though. Not because I don't believe you, but because I don't believe in men.
