yawn
If it’s not on Steam or GoG I pirate. Console children should go touch grass or go to school so they understand something other than defending multi-billion dollar megacorps.
Not to rain on your parade but Gabe Newell collects yachts so if you’re against multi billion dollar mega corps then your option is itch.io and buying from indie devs directly and that’s pretty much it.
Lmao, says the guy defending a multi billion dollar megacorp’s monopoly.
I prefer competition in all markets, if you prefer monopolies that take 18% more of every single sale, I have bad news for you about your level of grown up ness.
Says the one defending Steam lmao grow up
Quick google says epic has 13000+ employee while Valve has only 300+, and yet they can’t build a legitimate competitor and have to resort to exclusivity deal to force people onto their platform which is totally anti consumer.
Also for the record console players whine endlessly about Xbox/PS exclusive games, so don’t act like this is some weird thing that PC gamers do.
Why do you bring up console players? What does that have to do with Steam?
Also, what’s the cutoff for the number of employees a company can have before it’s weird to stan for them? Because I’ve never liked Steam, and Valve was one of the first companies to promote lootboxes and literal gambling to children, but Epic is the devil for some reason?? Lol gtfo
The point is that Epic complaining about being unable to compete with Steam, and therefore needing to employee anti-competitive, anti-consumer practices rings a little hollow given that they have significantly more resources available.
I’m not here to stan for either company, I think if Epic wants to compete they need to create a better product, not fling monopoly accusation while actively pursuing monopolistic strategies.
