I'll never understand the absolute cock worship of steam. They're just a huge, near monopolistic gaming store that apparently requires daily fellatio on this platform. Apparently, I'm supposed to agree or get smashed with the typical vitriol one gets with disagreeing with the hive. You Assholes
It's because of their backend tech. Steam has some of the most efficient CDN usage in the world. How do you think you're able to download a 60Gb game in 10 min?
They did a lot for pc gaming and I like them, but they really should lower the % cut imho.
Agreed, but as long as there is no real competitor they have simply no incentive to do that
Competitors are out there, it's just that not enough people care about how much of their money goes to the developer/publisher.
real competitors, there are ofcourse the niche stores like GOG, but the ones with more money like Epic, EA whatever en Ubisoft Connect just suck
There is nothing wrong with gog or epic. Even xbox is fine.
It surprises me too. I suppose gamers do really like their proprietary DRM with monopolistic practices.
DRM is up to the game developers, it's not enforced by Steam.
You've posted this exact same message letter for letter in two threads, reported as a bot.
True, only bots can copy and paste
Do you even bother to read what you write or nah?
I mean, aside from the lack of a period at the end of the sentence, the post looks grammatically correct to me. Why do you think I didn't proofread my own post? What a silly goose
I'll never understand why some people look at the fact that steam is popular because of their policies, and can't help but make a comment like this equating that popularity to cock worship.
Like, we get it bro. You're thinking about cocks and you're mad about a half decent game store. What compelled you to combine those thoughts on a public forum?
The weird thing is that this isn't even the first comment I've seen like this. Dudes that are mad about steam want everyone else to know about steam's massive, throbbing cock for some reason. This guy alone has posted 3 of these.
