I didn't think much about it until my brother (an on and off player) and I started talking about the new updates coming. He was surprised since he hasn't seen any news posts on his steam account. He figured nothing new has come out in months. I checked this morning and saw the last time an update was posted on Steam was the Rellekka rework in May.
External link →Love this response. What kinda confuses me is... the resource is to copy and paste? Or place an update to the patch notes on the updates list? Takes about 2 mins tops if you have the login details
Steam is a lot of reformatting and remaking images, its not impossible but Monday's are already a very time intensive day so it slips off the priority list pretty consistently.
I don't think Mods Yuey, Azana and such made the decisions on what news and whatnots to be posted on social media. I believe this is more like Mod Hooli's charter... but I doubt it is even his call to not update RS3's news on Steam since May. Such oddity is far more likely to come from his higer-up(s).
TBH, it is incredibly shameful to hear it often from RS3 Jmods, employees of a $1.2 billion worth company, that they aren't allow to tell/show us news that 99.9999999999999999999999998999% of employees from similar companies in the entire world can.
To hold my hand up, not posting on Steam is 100% on me, it's in my to do list but it slips down in priority consistently.
Steam posts will be returning on a more consistent basis in the near future once Yuey gets settled into some more things and our hectic communications schedule stabilizes ,as right now we are actively working on a few different projects such as RCE blogs and more active player communications, it just means something just has to give somewhere and unfortunately Steam is a combination of a surprising amount of time investment and scheduling conflicts that it ends up taking a back seat which again is my call.
