Government regulation means Steam China will be a curated platform

from The Art Of Struggle. · host PIXEL SULTAN

- Valve's DJ Powers discusses differences between Steam China and existing versions of Steam. The version of Steam that launches in China will take a more curated approach to its game library, a departure from the existing platform made necessary by China’s strict regulations on video games. Valve’s DJ Powers offered more details on the recent announcement in an interview with Eurogamer, touching on everything from features it hopes to add to how the official launch will impact the version of Steam already unofficially available to Chinese players. On the topic of curation, Powers tells Eurogamer that a more hands-on approach is necessary for the platform to exist alongside China’s infamously strict rules about game content. Valve spins this as a plus in the interview, saying that the process means Steam China users can download games from local servers and have a "high-quality experience" all around. #gaminglife #like #apexlegends #gamingmemes #anime #nintendoswitch #fortnitememes #pcgamer #retrogaming #gameplay #battleroyale #pro #destiny #art #bhfyp #blackops #fortniteclips #callofduty #twitchstreamer #geek #youtuber #lol #rdr #gamingcommunity #minecraft #overwatch #sony #fun #instagram #online
