Fucking Steam always getting shittier with each update! Why can’t they be better like Microsoft’s XBox Store or DRM free like Epic Games?!

chonglibloodsport ,

Can you do one of these for Windows 3.1 or 95? That would be sweet!

Honestly, I hate steam (the client) so much. I have a fair sized library of games that I never play because it’s just torture to me to start that abomination of a program. Why the fuck couldn’t they give it a simple, clean, elegant, native UI that doesn’t treat my battery with wanton disrespect?

I try not to let my nostalgia get the better of me, but god damn I really miss when everything looked like this.

atocci ,

Can we return to Aero? Is that too much to ask?

mkwt ,

Skip aero. Let’s go back to compiz fusion and deskcubes.

I’ve been long enough on this place that I know you can get similar effects on Linux

can someone make this a thing somehow?

P4ulin_Kbana ,

I don’t get it. /g

I believe it’s a fantasy/for funsies mock-up of what the gaming store/launcher application Steam maybe could have looked like if it was done in a style similar to Windows 7’s styling and other computer applications and websites during that era. Looks like maybe MySpace and Windows Live Messenger may have been some inspiration

I hope that helps. I may be leaving stuff out or wording things oddly since I’m pretty brain foggy due to health issues, but no one had answered ya (that I can see) and I wanted to try to help ya out 😅

chomsky-yes-honey A better timeline?

Windows UI design peaked with Windows 98 and Unix UI design peaked with IRIX imo

flambonkscious ,

Back when they had consistent style guidelines to follow (I remember reading them, along with deep descriptions of how PnP actually works - yuck!).

Now they just throw shit at the wall it seems

Perfect choice of game to display this

Strayce ,

I don’t know how to feel about this.

It’s making my micro soft

Well of course it’s a timeline, it’s the timeline of hell.

I hate this. I’m pretty sure this gave me PTSD somehow.

LEDZeppelin ,

Oh fuck. We need themes on steam client

mihnt ,

You can. They are called skins though.

Apparently official skin support no longer exists but Millennium for Steam looks like an unofficial tool that can be used for skins.

mihnt ,

Yeah, I used to mess about with it but it became too much because Steam updates so damn much.
