Most know videogames as polished multi-million dollar entertainment products with unfathomably expensive marketing budgets. But for every Grand Theft Auto 5, there are hundreds (perhaps thousands) of games like
Baby Walking Simulator, or
Block Granny Horror, or
Meegah Mem 2. These games have little hope of rising above Steam's curation algorithms: they're weird, aesthetically maladjusted, and at a guess, they probably weren't created to rake in billions of dollars for their creators.
People talk about 'curation' a lot when it comes to PC gaming storefronts: some argue that there's not enough curation, others argue in favour of a free-for-all approach. There are good arguments to be made on both sides, and those arguments have been happening (with exhausting regularity) for years.
I don't believe multi-billion dollar companies like Valve or Epic should let hateful or abusive material onto their stores, but I
really don't think we should let huge tech companies decide for us what is "art" or "fun" or "worthy". If there does exist a mythical place of perfection in-between "anything goes" and "only things rich people think we should play", I hope small amateurish games are still allowed to exist, and I don't mean "amateurish" in the pejorative sense.
