Is this really what most people want? I don’t even know what social features steam has. I just want a functional storefront that doesn’t fight me at every step. I stopped grabbing the free games on windows because the constant capchas were horrible. I’m on linux now, and it’s a little better using herioc but I still don’t even bother to look as there’s issues there too, mainly the store doesn’t scale and I’m on my TV at 200% so the store text is really tiny.
I think it’s a huge aspect. Reviews, guides, discussions, bug reports all falls under the “social” category.
E: oh and a friend’s list where you can quickly join up via “game invites”, and game leaderboards which have friend rankings… Steam workshop… Those are also big social features
