    Microsoft contributes a lot of stuff to open source but that’s really far away from my point. I’m not back peddling, I’m explaining myself because you are being a child and taking my words way to literally. Microsoft being slightly worse does not make steam “good”.

    Valve can run and offer the same services it does now on a fraction of what they charge.

    They could easily properly compete, every store could drastically lower their pricing, but they don’t, because they like having a soft monopoly.

    “Explain it to me or you lose” is insanely childish behavior, specially when I just explained that’s not what I meant and you are being too literal but I mean, here:

    Explain to me why you think Gaben deserves a net worth of 4 000 000 000 $.

    That is who you are being a mouthpiece for, stop defending billionaires.

      Microsoft is not a fair comparison to Steam, hence why I refocused to Xbox.

      “Obviously I didn’t mean what I said, don’t be a child!” 🙄

      Valve can run and offer the same services it does now on a fraction of what they charge.

      They could even do it for free, out of the goodness of their hearts!

      “I was told there would be no fact-checking”

      Explain to me why you think Gaben deserves a net worth of 4 000 000 000 $.

      Wow, those goalposts are really movin’ now!

      That is who you are being a mouthpiece for, stop defending billionaires.

      See my previous comment about how boring and smug your take is.

        I’m not moving the goalposts, I’m making fun of your attitude.

        My point is that steam is a piece of shit company like the rest, not that they are exactly the same. Two PoS will still stink even if they aren’t exactly a like.

        That’s what I mean man, sorry if it wasn’t clear before and then the next two times I explained it again.

        They could even do it for free, out of the goodness of their hearts!

        Are you being sarcastic about being robbed? The money’s coming out of your pocket, either directly or in terms of the quality and quantity of games. Is their cut justified in your eyes, even after I outlined his networth and how much money he’s racking in?

          Obviously I didn’t mean what I said, or understand any of the details about my claims. I’m just saying capitalism bad!

          😪

          Yes, yes, we get it.
