Las rebajas de Steam se quedan sin ofertas flash y diarias
Ayer leí en Anait algo que me ha dejó un poco mosca el resto de la tarde. Dentro de nada empiezan otra vez las rebajas de Steam, las de otoño y Navidad, y un desarrollador ha recibido el siguiente mensaje de parte de Valve:
In past sale events, we’ve asked for two discounts—a duration discount that runs for the length of the sale, and a feature discount that runs in the event that a game is featured on the front page. This year, to optimize the sale for customers and to allow us to feature and recommend your products in more ways to more customers, we’re asking for just one discount, to run the length of the sale.
We’ll still be highlighting top games on the front page for 24-48 hour spans, but those products will stay at their most competitive discount, before and after being featured. It’s not a major change, but it does make the sale a lot more valuable for customers, and it allows us to build sale tools that highlight and recommend products all sale long, instead of just during front page features.
Básicamente la cosa se resume en que aunque seguirá habiendo ofertas grandes cada cierto tiempo, no habrá ya ni ofertas flash ni ofertas diarias. Se seguirán rotando los juegos en portada, pero tendrán el mismo precio mientras dure el periodo de rebajas.
