Who else .....

Can I join your 💙?

Can someone cut the whole text in 1 or 2 sentence?

I'd like to join your whitelist and giveaway, if possible. I've always wanted to try out that series, and have had it on the wishlist for quite some time. :)

The game is excellent, at least the original version that I played back in the day, the bad news is that I have limited time and have some modern games in my backlog waiting for me.
As for Steam shitty games, after closing greenlight thinks keep going even worst than before so...

there is a reason there is only one channel dedicated to a specific language channel in ASF discord beside English, which users also are probably the main target group for said games :3<

There always has been a market for low effort cheap games that aren't really good.
Even back in the Vic20/C64/Sinclair ZX days with games in the bargain basket in shops.
Just that Steam has made a worldwide market so easily reachable. And if you think it's just one specific country. Well there's a dragon about to pounce once they start translating their games more often.
Edit: Caveat Emptor. If people can't be bothered to research their potential purchases even though there are reviews etc. available then they probably didn't care much for the money or haven't learned their lesson yet.

Steam should stop allowing such games to enter the store ... (I can't even call this a game)

Of course I heard of it! Ever since playing Dragon Age, I heard that it was the spiritual successor for Baldur's Gate, so I wanted to try that game, but I never got around to play it. And I had it on my wishlist for a long while, so if you allow me, I would love to enter! :)

I think a lot of the problem actually comes from Steam Trading Cards. As long as people can make a profit from pushing out cheap re-skins with trading cards, people will keep buying them in 30 for a $1 bundles.

Not that other platforms are immune to shovelware (the Nintendo handhelds in particular are inundated with them), but at least the shovelware developers make some kind of effort.

There are too many trash games in steam :(

Not sure what you mean (jokingly or not).. that by not filtering such games it "forces" people to be negative against the country of origin of these games? But willingly or not, yes, this will happen and although it has it's share on the blame, the largest share is by the people who make these games and give their country a bad name in the gaming industry. It's a pity really as they were regarded highly in the 80s for managing to create better "hacks" than the original, then reigning, ZX Spectrum.. Possibly others but that's the one I know of.

PS. I am interested in that game, having it wishlisted since.. I can't remember. Up to you..

If I understand correctly, unfortunately, I think the cards and consequently the "large" bundles contribute to this.

I am interested in this game, but I don't have it on my wishlist. I have you WLted some time already 💙. Anyway thank you pal. God bless you. =D

Unfortunately in lots of countries game producing isn't really advanced and they can't make expensive games so they goes for a cheap and easy option. I'm afraid getting rid of shovelware is really hard if not impossible, like you said they do have a userbase and taste is subjective.

I have the game wishlisted a while back, would love for a chance :).

Well, I've checked first round. I will probably still add other people. But number of games in your library and also your wishlist is most likely one of the criteria which kicked back some of you. I'm just trying to somehow discern on who will most likely play the game.

You want to turn vaguely racist (really nationalist)? Try being a successful trader in a game like TF2 and watch where the scam offers come from, the same few countries almost every time. It's like the 99% that are bad want to ruin it for the 1% that aren't. Coincidentally, they're the same places the shovelware comes out of. It's hard to not end up with a bad impression of some places when your exposure to them is constantly negative.

Yeah, everyone's got to make a living. Some folks are less scrupulous than others. ☹ I have that game on my wish list, but I'll understand if I don't make the cut.

But Quagmire.

Instead of blaming the people making the games, perhaps we should be blaming the people who buy them?
If someone were willing to buy turds for $1, there'd soon be a factory full of toilets.

if it sells it's because people love it ^^ or maybe they need to idle cards with trash games?

The worst side effect of it is that nowadays it's nearly impossible to stumble on a gem(aka the good indie games that aren't featured on the front page)
This leads to a lot good games just getting buried and some smaller games don't even get enough reviews to even get a rating...

As for the whitelist GA: Got it on my wishlist for nearly 5 years now, but rarely buy games from there (thus there are now a little bit over 400 games on there) unless I know I'll start the game right away...because of my way too big backlog.
Though I wouldn't mind to get a chance to win it here because wins from here always take a priority...so I'd actually get around to play it.🙄

I'm not sure what kind of hate group you're trying to form, but I would like to join it.

Well, it inspired me in a way that even I can possibly make a game and publish it on steam.

Yep, that's a regular wishlisty-type game!
