Steam's built-in game save feature has been available in beta since the summer, but following a client update to Steam yesterday, it's now properly launched for every user. It's basically another method of capturing funny ragdoll bloopers and sending them to the “lol-games-idiot” channel of your friend's Discord. Or because you shared that accidental knife throw in Call Of Duty on Twitter, as if you really wanted to kill the guy on the map all along. Or save a clip for your personal recordings, like the moment you knocked an innocent citizen off the 15-foot wall of the castle town in Dragon's Dogma 2. We all do this, right? Right?

Latest Steam client beta improves Game Recording with ultra-wide support and unlimited capture length
Yesterday, Valve released a Steam client beta update that focused largely on Game Recording, the beta's recently added clip capture tool. It's a pretty wide-ranging set of improvements, including support for ultrawide monitor resolutions up to 32:9, a high-quality H.265 (HEVC) video codec (Windows only for now, apologies to Steam Deck) and option “To record a specific game indefinitely, without a specific time limit.”
