Valve is constantly working on improvements to Steam store visibility. After all, hundreds of new games are launching on the service every month, and sometimes dozens of games launching every single day. The average user just can’t keep up! This week Valve launched the Steam Labs, three experiments being presented to the community as ideas on how to improve visibility. The first idea comes in the form of micro-trailers; five second clips of video game footage on a big page where the user can simply go down the list of recently released titles. “Absorb every game in the Steam catalog in just seconds. Micro Trailers are six-second looping videos designed to quickly inform viewers about titles on Steam with a presentation that’s easy to skim. This experiment is a fancier version of the Twitter bot of the same name.” The second idea is an interactive recommender, a slider that shows you recommended titles based on your library as well as your weight by popularity … [Read more...] about [NM] Steam Launches Steam Lab Experiments

For a good while, the MMO community was following Undead Labs in the hopes of seeing its Class4 project come to fruition in the form of a zombie MMORPG. However, this past summer, we learned that Undead Labs decided to make State of Decay 2 as a four-player co-op experience instead, officially dashing these hopes. Recently on Twitch, Undead Labs President Jeff Strain explained why the studio abandoned its plans for massively multiplayer game, saying its fans were “relieved” that the team went a different route for the sequel: This is not Class4, this is State of Decay 2 There’s a big difference.
