Honestly, that's really smart. It shows which businesses are playing the long game and which ones aren't.
When democrats are back in office and businesses start re-instating DEI, Costco can always say they never got rid of them.
What a myopic view of the world.
Anyone can start a business and treat their employees and customers fairly. It's just that in our Stockholm Syndrome Society, the businesses who abuse us are the most successful.
Really we just to implement an open protocol that launchers and games can both support.
And there's always torrenting. Denuvo doesn't actually stop games from being cracked.
Heck, I just cut out the middleman and go straight to torrenting.
Wish I had thought to do this sooner. I would've saved a lot of money that really just ended up in the hands of landlords.
Honestly, I've been weaning myself off Steam for awhile now. It's great what they did to make PC gaming more accessible, but I also feel like Steam itself is an unnecessary dependency for most video games.
There should be protocols that games can implement to integrate with launchers and organize playing online.
I think Steam might be the only private company in this.
Really says a lot.
Cartels have been diversifying their investments for years. They're involved in way more than drugs at this point.
Lol, this was censored for daring to say I look up to Putin.
You guys are just as bad if not worse than the Russians with your censorship.
How is “unwilingness to engage” a good trait?
Because they're your enemies. You don't reason with them because you're not on the same side.
How do we solve it with non-violence?
Those other people don't have to use Steam's service if they don't want to pay Steam a cut.
The entitlement among developers on Steam is atrocious. I think a lot of useful idiots were pushing alternative storefronts years ago in no small part because they've been conditioned to accept a worse experience so someone else can take more of their money.
