    If you’re the sort of person who likes to take in plenty of trailers when you’re hunting for new stuff to play on Steam […]

    How about if I’m the sort of person who hates it when a bunch of shit starts autoplaying and there is a dev stream popping up and 10 embedded animated images in the product description?

    Got any features for me?

      Autoplay can be turned off in the settings.

        For broadcasts yes. The autoplay for trailers keeps forgetting its setting constantly and there’s nothing you can do about all the embeds - which are really the worst offender.

      Mood. Best thing to do would be to email steams suggestion mailbox with the request. It likely won’t have any effect, but if enough of us do it they’ll at least know.

    A working trailer feature should be basic functionality, like it is the Epic Games Store. (kinda /s)
