Because you're using Windows 10 like a subhuman baboon.

Why is your computer shit? I can't even remember the last time a steam game crashed on me.

A game crashing has more to do with the game than Steam, lad.

Fallout 3 & NV. You have to modify a .ini file to get them to work on Windows 8 & 10.

>Bethesda games
You mean the ones known to be notoriously broken even on fixed-hardware consoles? You sure that's Steam's fault?
>>
>>342829874
>Bethesda and Obsidian
>Quality programming
Pick one and only one.

I'm not OP so I'm not blaming Steam, I'm just pointing out broken games are sold on Steam.

But I do think Valve should have stricter standards and not allow such obviously broken games to be sold, at least not without a warning.

Let me tell you why, it's 2016 and why are you still using Steam?
>>

They have refunds, essentially making warnings and whatnot completely obsolete.

There's literally no risk now.

no-one but yourself to blame, bucko

NV runs and has ran just fine for me. However, I did have to modify 3 a bit to get it to run.
>>
>>342830135
No, warnings prevent a lot of headaches in the first place. Even if it's just a community run thing where if enough people complain, it'll get a warning on the store page, that's better than nothing.

Also shit happens. I had a game that didn't fully close, and I didn't realise it until it logged being played for 500 hours on Steam. Their refund system is not perfect because of shit like that.

>>342830324
It took 500 hours until you realized the game was still running?

>>342829698
Kingdoms of Alamur: Reckoning
Endless Space
Shogun 2

>Why don't you upgrade to W10? It's free! What are you, a tinfoil nerd?
And that's why your gaming PC must run nothing else than W7.
>>
>>342830449
It was just some process from the game running in the background, not the full game. It appeared to be closed out.
>>
>playing pre-2010 games

lmao

>>342829874
So much for the argument of PC gaming lasting.
