re: this article.

The title is a joke. “Free, but you have to make an EGS account” is a bit too rich for me.

    Of fucking course Steam isn’t advertising soda, they sell games. It’s still an advertisement… just because it’s relevant to the platform you’re on doesn’t mean it’s not an advertisement.

      Turn it off in the settings if it annoys you…

          Go to any other storefront and see if you can turn off the ads

              Yes but the relevant point of the conversation was that they are not forced ads. If you don’t like them then turn them off and you’ll never see it again. That does not happen on any other storefront.

                To be clear, I agree Steam letting you turn off advertisements is great, and that I can’t think of any other storefronts that do it. But while that may have been the relevant point to the original topic, it’s not the point I was commenting on. Which is why I didn’t respond to the first comment.
