I agree. The initial impression is that Greenlight makes it too easy, flooding the market with a lot of junk that makes it hard for the gems to shine through, but I've only seen more indie successes on Steam since its inception.
I think if a developer is relying only on Steam Greenlight to market their game then they'll likely have issues, but if they market in other ways then (if their game is worthwhile) they'll quickly build an audience.
- tcfunk 11y agoI agree, and I think the flood of low-quality games has actually had the opposite effect that people were predicting. Rather than drowning out good games, it is becoming easier to tell which games have some love put into them. It reminds me of the movie Idiocracy[0]. What might have been a C game before Greenlight suddenly looks pretty damn good compared to all the F's floating around them.
