The actual update post from Valve. Why is it not linked in the article? The notes are huge, with many things improved. Off course one of the improvements would probably lead to better loading times. This isn't a response to Epic Games, this is a main update developed way before.
And to add to that this was already part of the Beta update from 9. September
Holy hell finally. This has annoyed me for so damn long.
This annoys me too, not only with Steam. But I thought this is an issue on my operating system. I wasn't aware this could be solved by the client side.
please understand, they're a starving indie company
Honestly, that makes it even better to me. Here’s Epic bragging about beating Steam in some way meanwhile Valve’s like “here’s a little something we’ve been working on for a while. No biggy.”
Steam stays winning
