>Steam is a monopol-*I commit suicide over how wrong I am*
>>726031164These niggas crying over Steam haven't seen a true monopoly yet...
>>726031164They are, it's just that the "PC master race" are a bunch of poorfags.

>>726031164OP is kill
>>726031164>revenueWho cares, show profit.
what the fuck is this post and all these bot replies
>>726031164>Steam isn't a monopoly>until they ban your game and you have to sell it on another PC storefront, and find out just how much "not a monopoly" they really are when it sells less than 10% of what it would have.
>>726033560now explain what happens when sony or microsoft or nintendo ban a game and how you'd still play it as a console user
>>726033937Yeah, I can still get the game as a PC user, so it's better, but being banned from Steam usually means no more of that type of game will be made from that publisher since Steam has become so vital to financial success on PC. So even if I'm not screwed in the present, I'm still screwed in the future.
>>726034242steam would be better if it was completely free but for that you need to hang the payment processor kikes
>>726034390Steam was never completely free, but it was definitely freer in the past. It steadily got worse after the turn of the decade, but I think 2022 was the real turning point with the bans of Duel Princess, Dungeon Travelers 2 and Chaos;Head Noah all in the same year. Before that, the bans were mostly limited to adult and H-games depicting "extreme" content.
>>726033560other storefronts being inferior doesn't mean Steam has a monopoly, retard also >Steam banning gamesnever happened in Steam's 20+ year history
>>726031164Sony Entertainment is not Sony, etc
>>726031164>activison>$8BHow?
>>726031164>2021
>>726031505That's just the mass of CS2 and DOTA2 hours. People play those for tens of thousand of hours. Even third worlders would not mind paying a bit for them, but the monetization is through gambling.

>>726031164Monopolies are only negative when combined with judaism.
>>726033560Simple, you sell it at Walmart.
>>726031164Steam is different because it's a private company that doesn't make anything.
>>726031164Reminder that monopolies are perfectly legal.

>>726034390it is freeyou can literally go on their website and download it for unironically $0.00
