those big colourful amorphous blobs might be ugly, but you can't deny they're full of emotion.

So that you invest money getting ones from the community market instead.

It's rude to just call something ugly ugly; you should find a nicer way to say it.

Because the common use of them psychologically makes them appear less valuable and not exclusive.

Huniepop however makes cool emojis.

I know. I have been complaining about this for a very long time. The emoticons in Steam are miserable. The ones on my phone are 10x better.

"Invest money", you mean 'waste' money. Paying Steam to use emojis isn't about making an investment; that's insanity. Just copy/paste smileys, for free: https://getemoji.com/ 👺
