What do you think of the shorter automatic show format?
Scroll down, give a look to the three new shows, and let us know what you think: https://steamhost.cn/labs/automaticshow

Really like the idea. However, 3-second clips are too short, I think 5 or 6-second clips would be better, I don't mind 2-minute videos.

pertty cool. and makes alot a sense for what its is. just a little daily video to see some of the big stuff.

The 3 second clips are too short but the other 2 videos where really good. The 2 minute format is perfect.
The clips r too short!
A summary where you can jump into specific chapters would be nice.
норм

I liked the ideas with the adviser and the micro-trailers that look like what I need!

Overall it's a good idea, but some curation of the Steam page content is necessary to weed out inaccurate information, marketing and promotional material that doesn't have anything to do with gameplay.

Don't include clips of videos that have no gameplay.

Overly long videos won't be watched but users do want to see information about the games/applications, so a better balance between length of clips and length of video will be needed. Multiple videos are OK, just have a queue visible rather than a 30 minute episode.

If you implement this:

Let users filter the types of videos and length of snips, some will want 3 second clips but not when they are engaged.

Make sure keyboard/controller command of the video is possible, it isn't in the examples.
3seconds is too short, the seperate VR show is nice!

Clips are too short. I got a headache after 8 minutes. I think they can be useful if they are longer and not split into 4.

so cool, good idea

The full half hour video is too long for me. Probably a 2-5 minute video for each genre made weekly or monthly would be a better bet. I could see one of the genre specific automatic shows playing without sound at the top of the page for each genre.

good idea, but totally pointless if all we get are trailers/cinematics ... i personally don't care how good or bad are publishers at releasing trailers or cinematics ... only gameplay matters.

If you don't already know those games, watching trailers is totally pointless.
For example, steel division 2, they are billions, and so on (i stopped after seeing a few of those cinematic trailers that has nothing to do with the actual gameplay).

Same goes for current store pages ; players should NOT care for cinematics, anyone with a 25 years old computer can make such trailers (would take some time on such old boxes, but we were already doing this at that time),
so please STOP PUBLISHING TRAILERS that has nothing to do with the actual gameplay (same goes for most store pages).

Maybe make the video window bigger? There is too much unused space on the sides of the actual video in my monitor, and it feels too small to really know whats going on, specially considering that the video is divided on 4 parts.

Or maybe add the option to resize the video screen?

Sadly, playing the video full screen is not really an option IMO, because if you want to click on the link to the game, you need to pause the video, exit full screen mode of the video, click the game link, put the video again in full screen mode, and play the video again.
