>Steam constantly breaks records nearly every weekWhat's their secret?
Monopoly. I wish someone started a Stop Killing Games kind of initiative aimed to forcing Valve to close Steam
Roblox
no public stock shareholders to appease or have the number go infinitely up at all cost
>>730684236retarded fanbase
>>730684373what kind of monopoly does valve do? do they buy publishing rights and release as only steam exclusives?
>>730684550This can't be stated enough. The second Gaben dies of a combination yacht accident/clogged artery is the exact moment Steam is going to go to shit and re-kill PC gaming like in the late 00's.
>>730684236their secret is not being retarded kikes, unlike literally every singke one of their competitors
>>730684373I can't believe Gaben got away with owning the one video games strore in the world.
>>730684550/thread
>>730684879The unfair monopoly of being the only ones who want to offer a good service!
>>730684374>dude just play a shitty "game" with 100 million shiteating faggot retard children in itとっても hard passmiss me with tha gay ass shit
Most of those are bots and scammers
Still not using steam
>>730684550>>730684913Throwing in my own (You)s. Shareholders are cancer.
>>730685136Nah that's Roblox
>>730684373>Steam is in a monopoly because every other online retailer chooses to be dogshitweird. Why do they do that?
>>730684373>>730684374>>730684673>>730684913>>730685136>>730685173Good morning, saars!
>>730685113>AAAAAA THIS OTHER PLACE DOESNT HAVE A FORUM PAGE!!!! AAAAAAA WHAT AWFUL SERVICE!!!!! I CAN ONLY BUY GAMES AND PLAY THEM ON YOUR SERVICE BUT I NEED THESE BLOAT FEATURES!!!
>>730685215Nah thats steam too, delusional to think otherwise
>>730685275Fuck off jeet. I'm not using your website that doesn't let you own the media you purchase.Get. Over. It.
>>730685471Are you really the best shill Tim could buy?
>>730685663I'll bite. What am I shilling for?
>>730684913Yeah, right now steam is a benevolent autocracy. Gaben is doing everything right for PC gamers and PC gamers are having a good life, whoever takes over after him has a good chance of just tanking the entirety of PC gaming and sending things back to the dark ages.
>>730685298yet the ones who dont use the bloat still buys games on steam, why is that, pajeet?
>Gaben is doing everything right for PC gamers and PC gamers are having a good life
>>730685689The death of a useful service in exchange for an egomaniac's malware storefront.
>>730685974Incorrect.
>>730684236>1th JanuaryIt's amazing how many people get paid for writing so badly. I don't want LLMs to replace all human writers but for fuck's sake, if you're too proud to have ChatGPT write it for you then at least ask it to fix the typos.
>>730684913The question is whether Steam employees want that. They're probably relatively comfortable, so Gabe's death wouldn't be a problem at first.The real risk is that the industry will plant a single guy there, preferably from some tribe with strong racial preference, and this single guy will start doing the long-term work to subvert the corporation. People do this with clubs, with non-governmental organizations, with institutions and foundations, even with entire governments, so why wouldn't they do it with such a successful and profitable corporation?So that's it, the death of Steam will not come with Gabe, but it will come with the slow internal subversion played by some member of some non-white tribe.
>>730685275Y-y-y-you can't criticize Steam ok!!!
>>730685715Cause jeets and third worlders use steam and arent very smart, next question
>>730686028Don't lie on 4chan, dikshit.
>>730685298Funnily enough the Steam forums are pretty much against Steam itself' own interests.They're always full of people bitching about how Valve banned them unfairly from game X or Y, about how their accounts were hacked and their inventory was stolen, denouncing Steam's shitty user service,demanding games to be released on GOG instead, etcetera. Basically they allow people who hate Steam or have all kind of issues with Steam to be vocal about them, making people hesitant about using the service.
Steam drones are insane. Imagine living in a huge empire and when you criticize the regime you are bombarded by fellow peasants saying shit like "But the government provides a good service?" "No on is forcing you to live in this country" "Don't like the tax? Just live in the wilds" but everyone with 2 working neurons knows you don't have a choice in this matter. GabeN is your PC gaming lord and you can't run away from his ecosystem. Sure his monopoly is like maybe at 50th place when it comes to most harmful monopolies we have to deal with in this modern world but screaming "OTHERS ARE JEWING TOO WHY GET MAD AT GABEN WHEN HE IS ONLY BEING 90% JEWISH?" "YOU HAVE TO STEAL FROM PETER TO PAY PAUL SO IT'S OKAY TO BE SCUM AND HAVE NO ETHICS" is not a valid excuse. Valve is evil, gayben is evil and they deserve to die just like every other leech system in place. Any questions?
>>730686664>GabeN is your PC gaming lord and you can't run away from his ecosystem.GOG and the EGS exist. Itch.io exist.
>>730686836Literally no one cares. You, me and everyone use steam even tho we hate it. We just tolerate his bullshit just like how we tolerate windows and how we tolerate our shitty corrupt country. I think at the very least recognizing this is the first step in the right direction.
>>730686646>making people hesitant about using the service.This isn't true, given that the peak CCU keeps increasing.
>>730686943You're posting from india! Fuck off.
>>730686943Plenty of people use both so there are people who care.You could close your Steam account tomorrow and migrate to GOG and the EGS tomorrow and you wouldn't have any issues.
>>730686664Dont careDidnt readStay mad peasantALL PRAISE LORD GABEN
>>730686550Calm down. Nobody wants to have a conversation with a screeching cultist.
>Dont care>Didnt read>Stay mad peasant>ALL PRAISE LORD GABEN
>>730687186So why are you here? You're a blatant corporate shill and have been blatant for as long as you've been posting on 4chan.
>>730687169I'll leech of his steam servers while not spending money on his games. I'll pirate all games. I'll buy stolen keys if I have no choice but to get the game on steam. I'll spam anti gaben threads every day. I am literally unstoppable.
>>730687314if you truly wanted his attention you could just write an electronic mail Anon, no need to parrot the jeets
>>730687308Am I not allowed to criticize a billion dollar corporation?
>>730687413Nah, I don't want to fuck him. I don't like to do it with fatsos not even to show dominance.
>>730684236
>>730687420If you were honest about it, but you reek of curry and sharted pyjamas.
steam derangement syndrome is the funniest shiti read timmy's clown twitter all day and lol hard when he always does the polar opposite of gabei laugh when companies like amazon and epic who have bottomless pits of money only "disrupt" instead of actually try and then cry when they flopevery time gabe newell buys something, it's front page news on /v/the best "insult" people can come up with is "steamie"none of these retard execs will ever get itlmfaololrofl
>>730686943>You, me and everyone use steamspeak for yourself, cattle
>>730687542Which criticism did I make that was dishonest?
>>730684550Valve is the greatest example of why you should NEVER go fucking public with your company.
>>730687591I prefer "PC vegan" to be honest. It really seems to piss you guys off for some reason.
>>730687927Valve spearheaded every cancerous practice in the industry without going public so that's a bad example
>>730687908>bloat featuresFundamentally dishonest about the breadth of useful services that Valve offers through their infrastructure.>calling everyone but yourself a jeet or cultistHardcore projection because you're a greedy brown rapebaby who shits in the street.>'GabeN is your PC gaming lord and you can't run away from his ecosystem'Tell your boss to make a better service, you nasty little indian.
>>730688161You mean trying to become independent from Microsoft and Windows? Oh dear consumer think of the children or something!
>>730685209i'll always be reminded of a nintendo shareholders meeting where one of them complained that iwata was spending too much time talking about videogamesmotherfucker did you even look at what you invested in?
>>730688271I didn't say any of those things. The person who mindbroke you is not me and I refuse to take credit for his work.
>>730687927People startup companies to make money. If some retarded investor gave them money why would they decline? Gayben is just lucky he managed to buyback enough shares to reach the magical 50.1% number to become the majority shareholder. He could have been cucked at any time.
>>730688278>You mean trying to become independent from Microsoft and WindowsNo I didn't mean that. Are you capable of honest discussion?
>>730688381Okay, so he's your co-worker or something. I don't care. You're both, as they say, irredeemable.
>>730684236because they offer a better product/service >>730684373this is cope. Anyone is free to use other software
>>730688448Cope microjeet.
1. Listen to the autists2. Don't disobey the autistsIt's literally that simple.As a CEO once you've attained the autist fanbase all you have to do is literally nothing.If autists tell you you're enshittifying your product in any way shape or form there's a good chance they're right and you're wrong and all you have to do it listen to them.See Microslop as the counterexample. Autists have been telling them they were enshittifying the product for every release after XP. Microslop had literally over two decades to change course, and now their market share will be completely taken over by linux.If you make a good product, autists will flock to you.
>>730684236GabeN keeps doing nothing and keeps winning, simple as
>>730688531>and now their market share will be completely taken over by linux.i really wish this would happen, but it won't
>>730688080Is that because it's a retarded term? It's literally nonsense.
>>730688518I'll take that as a "no">>730688473Not my co-worker either. I'm sorry you are so dishonest.
Shouldn't you be defending pedophiles sweeneyshills?
>>730688531>looks at Minecraft>looks at Dwarf Fort>looks at furry pornIt really is that easy
>>730686984I've definitely not bought games because of information I found on the steam forums.
>>730688632It will. The only ones still holding on are American based MNCs.Foreign countries are already looking into or adopting open source or homegrown alternatives out of security concerns. Once their governments fully migrate, all their offices and workplaces will flip in a day.
>>730688658>Is that because it's a retarded term?Why are you asking me this question? PC vegan doesn't bother me. >It's literally nonsense.And? Did you have a point?
>>730688741Not Valve's problem. If devs want to act in a shady manner, the consequences are on them.
>>730688689>Timmy shits on Valve for AI disclosures>Timmy adds gambling to Fortnite>Timmy defends Elon's AI making CPWhy did he go off the deep end?
>>730686239Try criticizing it then, instead of making retarded jeet shitposts.
The EGS shills have seething everyday now every couple of hours. They always make the same retarded arguments about how you should hate valve...because you should...Everyone knows Valve is just objectively the best and most pro consumer and every company is seething because theyre not getting that pie.
>>730688807Touchy.
>>730688681It's true that jeets only lie when they're awake.
>>730688878>Not Valve's problemIt sort of is, because they aren't getting my money from what could have been a purchase.
>>730684236>What's their secret?Staying the same while every other game company (except GOG probably) gets shittier and shittier. That's it.
>>730688949
>>730684673He's right many people buy games they don't even play. It's like the Amazon of vidya.
>>730688975I'm sure they're crying because they missed out on one game purchase a year from you.
>>730688975But typically, money that is not spent on whatever you were considering will go to a different game, if you're still in a buying mood.
>>730688975they don't need to care about your money as long as they have mine
>>730684236Being a privately held company and not beholden to some greedy small hat board of directors constantly kvetching about money being left on the table yadda yadda.it's fun to hate steam, but holy fucking fucking cunty fuck, imagine if MS had managed to take over online distribution of games instead. They'd cunt you with windows update and all sorts of extremely abusive jeet cuntery.
The reason Steam's numbers keep going up is the same reason games get higher play numbers on launch nowadays: more and more thirdies getting access to the Internet.
>>730688632Its actually very possible since several countries are abandoning Windows for Linux because most people figured that having such obvious privacy concerns might be bad for government and hospitals https://youtu.be/SrtJAw57Wkw
>>730689104>OOPS WE NOTICED YOU'RE NOT USING THE MOST RECENT BROKEN UPDATE THAT BRICKS CERTAIN CPU'S, YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED TO PLAY THIS GAME
>>730688952Dishonest.
>>730688962Couldn't tell ya
>>730689213that's terrifying>we noticed the windows update service has been disabled, re-enable it to play this game>now cunting and fisting your computer with 27 random fucking updates that you absolutely did not want, and nothing to do with the game you wanted to play.I FUCKING HATE JEETSOFT.
>>730689096Thank you for funding my purchase. I'll continue to pirate.
>>730689371Lost Planet 2 is still fucked by GFWL.
>>730688975It isn't. If you don't buy one game that frees up time for another. Unless you don't actually game then your impact will be minimal anyways.
>>730689104>I spearheaded every cancerous industry practice, and did so without a single shareholder whispering in my earIndeed
>>730684236>>730685863>>730687258Bots, they are bots that farm CSGO skins or anything that gains money through long term trading. You supporting the scammers and you’re losing money not doing the same thing.
>>730689506he was never going to buy games anywayhe just doesn't want anyone else to buy games either
>>730689617Meds
>>730689096Unfathomably based
>>730684236>What's their secret?bots
>>730689617Its literally always the fucking schizo response to call everything bots even when theres evidence contradicting your retarded claims
>>730688448Are you?
>>730689643i have almost 300 games, fuck you.
>>730684236CSGO, basically.I think people who pledge loyalty to a company just because of a convenient service are retarded.
>>730689883People using a free to access website and playing free games doesn't need any explanation.
>>730684550Removing a whole layer of vultures (aka loads of payments) just to keep doing what works always makes for a better end result. I can't remember a single company that got better by having 'shareholders'.
>>730690037Good goy
>>730688596microsoft tried to copy sony but forgot to build up a cult fanbase first
>>730689983Are you?
>>730684373If your way to stop a monopoly isn't making new competition but closing the biggest actorThere's maybe something wrong going on and doing that won't solve anything
>>730684236Bots
>>730690037>all piratedthat's why nobody cares about your opinions
>>730689883Anon most steam users just play f2p games, most played games on Steam are Valve titles, and Valve titles are like 90% bots >>730689880
>>730684373Valve has competition, and they don't directly try to interfere with their competition. There's nothing Valve does that would prevent you from buying games on EGS, or the Microsoft Store, or GoG, but the vast majority of pc gamers choose to spend money on Steam because the others can't even come close to Steam's advantages. Innovating and delivering a better service is positive for consumers and we should expect companies to do it. Success does not equal monopoly.
>>730684236They just got there first. Same story as netflix. They don't do anything remarkable. They're 100% replacable and utterly irrelevant if you own a PS or Xbox.
>>730690538No, the pirates got there first.
>>730690468hell, Sweeney even bragged that EGS was made to free developers from having to answer to their customrs by guaranteeing them money even if nobody bought their game, and in most cases did everything in their power to prevent customers from even accessing their exclusives
>>730690059>CSGOoutdated
>>730684373Who would even be on the side of a movement like that? People actually LIKE Steam, you can't convince them to ally against it.
>>730690752Why do you let this guy live rent free in your head?
>a game comes out>its not on steam>drones of indians spam every discussion about the game with "NO STEAM, NO BUY"
>>730690869who, Tycho and Gabe? because they're funny
>>730684373>I wish Steam would shut down so my company could succeed
>>730690936only Epic and GOG use actual jeet shills
>>730685298steam provides so much for both developers and consumers, if you want to beat steam maybe you should work on how to give instead of how to take
>>730684236Good business practice. Steam has never stepped outside its area, it's just a small company of specialists who are good at their jobs.
>>730684236thank you indiathank you chinathank you russiathank you brazilfor keeping steam great
>>730691108liberals can't do thatall the people they hate live rent free in their heads forever, and they can never not be mad about it
>>730691045And Steam
>>730684236Consistant service. Not even good service. Service that has stayed the same and hasn't enshittified itself yet.Soon as they introduce something that changes the status quo from "Yeah, Steam, it's the default easy setup." piracy will be back in vogue.
>>730691045Valve is the jeet company, anon
>>730684236>What's their secret?Their competition
>>730685298If gog had as good ux as steam it would be an actual competitor to them
I for one find super funny how the Steam forums are full of people asking help for the console versions of their games, help for games they got from the EGS or help for things they bought outside Steam like keys.
>>730691003>gaming focused web comic is funny>I support valveChecks out
>>730685089What are you trying to say?
>>730691209Indeed.
I demand a better quality of antagonistic shill, Tim. These browns you're sending aren't so smart!
>>730685115he never told you to play it, he offered an example that in the same space, there's a market competitor that boomers don't even realize that is more successful
>>730691347thanks! have a rare chuddha
>>730691404Calm down, ranjeet. I'm just criticizing a billion dollar corporation.
>>730684236>works with SBI>donate money to democrats>forced to buy up all the single most woke studios and devs>censor anime and other" problematic" stuff>inventor off ALL the most greedy stuff that plague gaming atmhmm I wonder why (((they))) get pushed so much as the standard
>>730691250
>>730691475Valve is far wealthier than a mere billion dollars, Sukdik.
>>730684236>steam blastsBLAST BROSWE'RE SO BACK
>>730691661Good to know.
Wanna know what will finally beat Steam?A store that runs you game remotely. Stadia without latency. Which is feasible when data centers are everywhere.
The only people who have moral authority to shit on Steam are the ones who oppose the digital only, cloud landscape and the idea of digital """""ownership"""""".Sadly the ones making these threads happen to be Epic shills.
>>730691720>[web service] without latencyThis is literally impossible.
>>730684913cant wait to open steam the week after he dies and find half my library gone with a new "AI assistant" feature and its just Clippy and he forces you to play co-op and feeds
>>730684373>fuck making a better more competitive platform than steam but also FUCK STEAM REEEEEEEEElmao
How long will VaIvedrones do the "anyone that says anything bad about Valve is an epicshill shtick?"
>>730691775Not when the data center running the process is right next door. No drinking water is a small price to pay.
>>730687507KEK
>>730691867As long as it keeps being true!
Reminder if you are one of the 95% of PC "gamers" using Windows you have no reason to support the steam monopoly
>>730691941Shouldn't you got back to /fuckepic/, Ranjit?
>>730691867There will always be goycattle worshiping brands and deflecting criticisms. Just how it is.
>>730684373The "monopoly" in this case is having a better service.
>>730692006I want Gabe to get himself a new yacht
>>730691867When you call it a monopoly you are an epicshill wanting people to put chinkware on their computer
>>730692135I'm afraid I'm not as familiar with it as you clearly are.
>>730692251>wanting people to put chinkware on their computerYou mean Steam?
>>730684236selling video games
>>730691250my guy even commies like steamthe hatred towards them is actually more horseshoe like and age divided, with leftist journos and boomers that don't play games hating them
>>730684236every other company that does what they do sucks
>>730684373That's strange because I remember having 5-10 storefront/launchers I've had to use over the years and the only reason most of them no longer exist is because they sucked so much ass that people actually would not buy games simply because it involved using them.
>>730686943
You just know they hire the most braindead retarded shill agency when they're this fucking bad and blatant with their jobIt really hard to argue against Steam when they're the most consumer friendly optionShills also don't never have an answer on who is better than steam because they're at least aware enough to know that'd be TOO retarded to admit whos paying them. Most people already use Steam in conjunction with GoG, every other storefront on PC fucking sucks ass and isn't worth it.
>>730684236All other platforms are shit, so people have no choice but to use steam because no other company can make a usable product as they are all beholden to investors so they are forced to make their product shit, steam is not
>>730687591>we spent 15 years trying to dethrone Steam and we never realized until the end that we should just try building something that isn't complete shit to use.It's marketers buying their own bullshit. It's like they forgot that their whole business model is lying to their consumers and then started drinking their own kool-aid and trying to fuck their own asses.
>>730684236Simplicity. It also spawned a bunch of Seething "people" who want to take it over and make it public
>>730692728How much do you get paid to defend Gaben, Kumar? Like at least be less obvious about it.
>>730692846answer the question I proposed in the postwhat is your alternative to steam and explain in detail why.What is actually negative about Steam
>>730693093Nothing, not using a DRM platforms that collects your data and have useless bloat.Why the fuck would you WILLINGLY use that and then get mad at devs for not putting their games (and be forced to censor them) their?Why does it make you so mad Kumar when games are not on Steam?
>>730691745You own your digital games if they dont have drm or online requirements.
>>730693220So basically you have no answer and you get mad that people actually have an answer and use steam?Why would you be mad unless you were getting paid?, if you wanted to just pirate this wouldn't matter to you.Youre a paid shill who cant come up with good arguments and you dont have an answer because youre a braindead third worlder who gets paid for pennies for being a body , youre not paid for your mind
>>730693220If you hate corporations making money, then i hope you endorse piracy, or you would be one hell of a hypocrite
>>730693220You still aren't answering the question. So you advocate going back to physical or are you advocating for non-DRM Digital a la GOG? In that case, how would you deal with piracy?
>>730688080>"PC vegan"what doesn't even that mean? I guess that is insult because ''vegans, lol'' but what does it mean?Like PC only? but I used to play on consoles too, even have rotting PSP somewhere in my deskOnly PC games? I emulated like dozen consoles and played hundred console games?explain, why i should be even angry at this? outside ''vegans bad, lol''
>>730693454>>730693648I answered your question and all you do is get mad?How much is Gaben paying you, how do I get a job as a shill? Do I have to contact his friends Larry Fink or so?
>>730693420Only if you have the installers on your own off-line hard disks / RAID arrangement; otherwise is worthless.
>>730693831its a forced buzzword anon don't think about it too hard
>>730684913Surely he's been grooming a succesor?
>>730693894>I answered your question You didnt, which is why I responded with saying that you have no answer. Youre a faggot being paid to shit on consumer friendly stores and products because mr.sheckleberg is mad that the goy are happy.
>>730693894Just answer the question. Do you want to return to physical or do you want DRM-free digital?In case of physical, how would you deal with the current game sizes and bug fixes? have in mind how we're talking about games completely independent with online so no day one downloads, patches or the like.In case of DRM-Free digital, how will you deal with the possibility of the store / developer / publisher removing it from the store and making it impossible to download? In both cases, how will you deal with piracy?
>>730691250sigh
>>730693965you could call her that
>>730684236Teenage guys are abandoning consoles in favor of gaming PCs. People I work with have teenage and college-age kids, and basically every gamer guy age 15-22 has moved on to primarily PC & Steam gaming.
>>730693831PC vegans because vegans will mention they are vegan unprompted, sort of lile how you start babbling about emulation
>>730684236>What's their secret?Not fucking over their customers every chance they get.Yes, it really is that simple.
>>730686209Oh fuck off with your "da joos" psyop you glowie. There doesn't need to be a single person of the semitic persuasion around for the shareholders to ruin Steam apart the second Gabe is cold in the ground. You seriously think people who own shares for a living need to be Jewish to rip the copper out of the walls? This is why you're so easy to control.
>>730694135>In both cases, how will you deal with piracy?Why would we deal with it? Why are you so hellbent on defending multibillion corporations, Kumar?All the biggest games on PC are OUTSIDE of steam, how did they manage that when it's impossible according to you?
>>730693831Who even started that name? I feel like only one schizo uses it
>>730684236first mover advantage + being the second least shitty storefront gog's DRM-free games can't be beaten. any other questions?
>>730684373oh shut up timmy, go chew on a remote or something
>>730694598>Why would we deal with it?Publishers/devs won't sell on your site then. See; GoG and its tiny catalog because they are afraid of selling a game without anti-piracy measures in place.
>>730694595>has a meltyyep. jews.
>>730685115>とっても hard passpass is pasu or kekkou desu you moron
>>730694585The jews that has been sued multiple times for breaking BASIC CONSUMER rights are not fucking over the customers?The corporation that is responsible for inventing ALL the most predatory practices we have in the industry now?
>>730684236Only 42 million? I thought there was more than that
>>730694515so its mean nothing and you are just retarded
>>730694585>Not fucking over their customers every chance they get.Valve cultists are blind
A service that works and isn't overtly hostile to it's user.
How do I get paid to work as a Steam shill, do I contact Valve or do I go to their boss, George Soros directly?
>>730684373No one is stopping people buying games from Epic or GOG.
>>730694598I love how you keep not having an answer to these questions and expect us to think anyone would be on your side.In the end youre basically admitting that Steam is just the answer and you dont have any reasonable argument to be against it
>>730694635There's a lot to be said for actually being designed around providing a service instead of rent seeking through subscriptions. That's also why the company will die once Gabe dies and the company goes public, because the new owning shareholders will demand that their puppet CEO restructure the company around rent seeking.
>>730684550This
>>730694704nobody cares, dork
>>730694864>ooh yeah you don't want to use a DRM launcher platform that collects your data and sells it to china?>WELL how else is Valve suppose to make billions of dollars?>Heh curious, I am very smart I gotcha thereAre you real?
>>730694893Valve right now is hardly even run by Gabe Newell thanks to its flat structure
>>730694864why are you even responding to this dude?
>>730684236>1th of january
>>730694981what the fuck...?AI?
>>730684236it is only a matter of time before jews grab gabe by his nutswrite down my words
Shut up fags>>730684236
>>730694779I told you what it means, ESL
>>730692728Anon I'm sorry we are politely discussing steam in your EGS obsession thread.
>>730684373differently from most social media where winner takes all you can buy any game from any platform at any time
>>730695072>illiterate ESL calling other ESLnah, you didn't, you just projected some schizo babble, now fuck off
>>730694948Oh so now that you have no comeback or argument you've gone to fearmongering and making shit up.>>730694978Its interesting to see how far you can push someone who clearly has no answers. All these anti-valve threads have one clear thing and its that nobody has an actual answer to whats better than Steam. They'd rather twist themselves into knots than giving straightforward answers
>>730693093>what is your alternative to steam and explain in detail why.Walmart and Target. They let me own the video games I purchase.
Gabe could give you a hooker with every purchase and the deranged faggots on this board would make several dozen threads about how that is somehow a bad thing lol.
>>730695154Fuck your mother, bitch
>>730695169>Reddit spacing>disingenuous>obvious paid shillJust go back
>>730693420No you don't.
>UHMMM WHAT ELSE WOULD WE USED IF NOT STEAM!?Nothing>NOOO STOP SAYING THAT YOU ARE REFUSING TO ANSWER MY QUESTION REEEE!You can¨t even talk to the shills, even if you answer them they will just talk in circles.
>>730693831It doesn't need to mean anything. It's like snoy. It doesn't mean anything, it's just a slur.
>>730695230You will never answer the question that was originally asked of you.Im surprised you dont kill yourself after being clearly outmatched.
>>730695226fuck your 2 fathers, you cocksucker
>>730695321see >>730695287I won't talk in circles with you, Kumar.
>>730695362Lol you want to fuck two guys
>>730695287>nothing But you were advocating for consoles, which are even worse than steam. Lol
Indian automatized trading cards/bananas/nfts farms
>SAAR you must release it on steam how else can I make use of steam bucks I redeem and bot saar!
>>730695287Nothing isnt an answer. The original question is "what is your alternative to Steam"By saying "nothing" you actually concede and admit that Steam is the objectively best and option and prove me correct
>>730695287>nothingso you dont play games?>inb4 I pirate everything k post your pirated games folder
>>730695171You have less braincells than the average Steam shill
>>730694725>>730694784Ok so how have Valve specifically fucked over their customers in a way that other stores have not? And don't give me any retarded bullshit like refunds, nobody offered those until a precedent was made against valve specifically. Everyone else was just too irrelevant to be involved in the legal case.
>>730695460NTA, anything with physical media is more consumer friendly than steam. Including any PC storefront that decides to do this. This isn't a "PC sucks!" criticism you sensitive PC vegan.
>>730695531>>730695610>>730695460I know it's hard for you zoomers to realize this, but you don't have to use a DRM platform to play games...crazy right!?All the biggest PC games of all time are outside of steam, but is that possible when it's impossible according to you.Elaborate on this shills.
>>730684236Look at the breakdown per country
>>730695690>All the biggest PC games of all time are outside of steam, but is that possible when it's impossible according to you.but I was told steam is a monopoly?
>The VaIvedrones got so mad they started to make more shill threads in the catalogMINDBROKEN
this dude has lost his mind and is now posting on cooldown huh?
>>730695784And here it comes, you don't elaborate or discuss when I answer. Instead you start talking in circles like I said here >>730695287Not gonna bother replying to the shills anymore
>>730695690you're delusional if you believe they wouldn't make their own worse drm services if not for steamyou're talking about some gay anarchist fantasy pretending like a prisoner's dilemma with tens of thousands of agents is even possiblein reality if not for steam you'd have fifty different accounts with people who hate you way more than valve and you'd get consistently raped by data breaches so have fun with that
>>730695690And yet all of them don't let me own it physically, I.E. own the fucking game.
>>730684550>why does valve line continuously go up?>because they have no shareholders forcing line to continuously go upkek shareholders btfo
>>730684879monopoly on not being shit
>>730695531See>>730695171
>>730685298post your EGS library
>>730695612Good talk.
Kek the obvious EGS shill is getting fucking ravaged.Sorry but I'm going to still use Steam. Most people are. Your paid shill campaign has been going on for years and you haven't changed anyones mind
>>730686080>ruizhe's just a beaner looking to make a living 300 page views at a time
No Reyansh, I won't use your woke censorship store.No Reyansh, I won't support Sweet Baby Inc and DEI hires.
>>730696119
>>730696206>No Reyansh, I won't use your woke censorship store.where will you be buying it from anon haha just asking haha?
>"No, you are the epic shill">"No, you are the steam shill"Convincing arguments anons
>>730684236Being first was important. Not being retarded was even more so. Valve rivals have more money and power and yet... they don't get it. Valve is safe and can only fall on its own when the company's leadership change.
>>730694916of course you don't you worthless dekinai
>>730696307there are like 4 different things people are arguing in favor of, it's a pain in the ass
>>730695653>physical>consumer friendlylol
>>730694960his shares will go to his son. he will sell the company and cash his check and then steam will go to shit
>>730684236The entire world is burning and somehow they are doing just fine. They are part of the corruption.
