You didn’t answer my question

Never said I boycott Steam, I said I don’t boycott any of them

Where are all the memes about Steam exclusives then?

“make yourself suffer”

I open Steam, switch to the library open my game and play

I open Epic, open my game from the main screen and play

So much suffering! Heck, I also sent more money to the devs through that suffering!

If you think taking a 30% cut to enrich a billionaire isn’t enshitifaction then I don’t know what to tell you buddy.

You think Steam isn’t a monopoly?

The fact that they take a 30% cut and it’s used to enrich a billionaire is very much anti consumer.

Doesn’t matter the size of the studio, in the end they have people to pay and Steam is asking them to take a gamble in the hope that they’ll make enough to compensate the money they spent. We’ve seen but studios crash and burn, hell Sony wasted home many millions on that game that was online for a couple of days? I’m sure they would have been happy to have gotten a cheque instead of nothing!

You wouldn’t complain if it was only available on Steam so fuck off

No, you see it’s different because Steam is love and Gabe is perfection, you know?

Oh no, we don’t complain about Steam exclusivity, monopolies are ok as long as they’re the monopolies that we want, ok? What happens when Valve turns to shit and we made sure there’s no viable alternative? That will never happen! Are you kidding?

People who hate on Steam alternatives want a monopoly

Would you do your job and maybe receive an income but only years later, based on results and how happy you made your boss?

The devs and publishers who sign those deals are the ones you should be angry at, Epic is offering them guaranteed income in exchange for timed exclusivity, Valve is offering them access to a bigger player base in exchange for a gamble.

Hold them accountable for all the preventable deaths resulting from them screwing around with the economy. 2008 would have seen a ton of them going to prison for the rest of their life.

I don’t consider my cake complete until there’s icing on it 😉

The point still stands, if you’ve already played the game and extra content is added that you might have enjoyed then you might be disappointed that you won’t get to enjoy that content. When you only have a few hours per week to play games you won’t go back if you have other games you want to try, but if you had known more content was coming you would have played something else in the meantime.

Yet another proof that it’s better to just wait until games are completed before buying at a lower price

Lulz

Crypto Bros like him because they don’t want to have to pay taxes or to stop scamming people

Just using the Euro would be a great improvement since it’s not based on a single country’s economy.

No.

Ever heard of dumping? Because that’s exactly how you fight it.
