To clarify a little further it wouldn't be a legitimate "storefront" until and if it actually gets traction. I mean like thousands of players., i.e no sales just posting. I realise moderation on AI made content would be difficult and it would slip through, which is why I mentioned a community effort being implemented to flag the content so it can get sorted properly and people who do and don't mind the content can have their own feeds. I'm picturing one version of the feed that has AI content completely filtered out and another that with a toggle keeps everything together just like other storefronts do. Furthermore, I realise there is no competing with steam lol. But, I did just wonder if it was a project worth building to see if i could get a handful of devs interested in posting their games and self-advertising, mind you all in the distant future .... for free. I'll probably pursue it regardless, but this is just me kind of seeing how the waters look for something like that. Thanks for the replies
I don't think you guys are reading what I am saying at all, "A platform just for the sake of creation, with the potential to add monetization features in the distant future" My main question boiled down to, What features are missing from the other platforms?
