Here's a thread in which I state my case that Steam's storefront should be better. The original post was intentionally inflammatory and made the shocking suggestion that Origin might do things better than Steam. This caused waves of disbelief from users and mods alike. The internet nearly collapsed under the audacity of such a claim, and the doomsday clock was brought ever closer to the final hour.While it is great to have custom options in any software, it goes without saying that the default settings will be the most widely used, and therefore, those settings should be tuned for the optimal user experience in general.Therefore, in general I think that the storefront should seek to offer the best products, and should not seek to confuse the user. For example:Here, steam is recommending that I buy an ipad port which is fairly blatantly aiming to create brand-confusion between other more popular and better games.Some users argue this take.What do you guys think? Is this brand confusion?Another game pushed to the front page of Steam:Does this help the user experience? I personally don't think so.Another problem I have is the promotion of, what I consider to be skeezy adult games. I'm not against that fact that these games exist, but Steam should be smarter about how they promote them. Does it make sense to promote Porno Studio Simulator Tycoon? In certain contexts absolutely. But Steam should be better about when and where it does this. For example, at 9am I log in, scroll down to see what's new and popular, and see this:Is it the end of the world? No. But to me it definitely cheapens my perception of the Steam store. If porno-studio simulator tycoon is really the newest most popular game, that's fine, but in reality it's probably a good bet that I'm more interested in playing different games. The only games I have installed currently are Dark Souls III, Dota, Skyrim, Civ VI, Playerunknown's Battlegrounds, Shovel Knight and Endless Legend. There are many new and popular games that I haven't played, so why is Steam showing me this cheap porny game? It doesn't make any sense.Also, at 9am on a Saturday, I think it's safe to assume that at least some Steam users are going to be up their their kids or nephews, etc. Do I really have to tweak my steam settings to make sure that games like Porno-studio-simulator tycoo, aren't displayed on the front page whenever I have family over? Why not just have the front page be less gross by default? It's a reasonable thing to want out of the most popular gaming platform on PC. In my opinion.This doesn't appear to be true, because games disappear and reappear on that list, in different orders.
