Any info on why it closed? Will there be a replacement?

[–] LostDeer@infosec.pub 37 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think I know why it closed. You didn’t hear about it, I didn’t hear about it, somehow they didn’t market it very well. lol

Did they market it at all?

[–] SheeEttin@lemmy.world 23 points 2 years ago

No.

I was going to say my steam account is 16 years old and I'd never heard of it, but turns out the Archimedes plush I bought back in 2012 came from that store.

Their demise is getting heaps of traction

No. They just downright don't advertise their Steam branded merch at all. It's no wonder nobody knew this existed. Haha

It was probably closed because forfansbyfans was acquired.
