Trillion dollar corporation but selling a prebuilt PC and a controller is somehow too much work. No wonder the Chinese are dabbing on Amerifatasses so much now. Incompetent ass country.
>>732335024>faggot socksValve confirmed ewok. We're dun goofd goys
Bump
Yeah we know, it's why everyone is leaving pc in droves lately
>>732337217even the shittiest third worlder craptops mog your average "game" console in the amount of fun you can have
>>732335024gabe needs to buy more yachts, he's too busy to give a fuck about vidya anymore, please understand
valve/steam killed PC physical meda with worthless steam codes in game cases that DO NOT and NEVER HAVE approximated to the same value as something to can simply give, loan, resell or own. Steam is a cloud based pile of crap just like the xbox live network or the playstation network and it is pretty much inevitable you all who poured money into it are being analysed, spied on, commoditised and sold to the highest bidder. Steams used base will at some point face monetisation via subsciption charges and that is inevitable and all they deserve. If it does not run offline and it needs an internet connection it is shit. Nod if you understand and if you don't then fuck you you are the problem.
>>732337217>Yeah we know, it's why everyone is leaving pc in droves latelyPersonal computing is dying because you can spy on, monetise and milk idiots using cloud and centralised shared computing resources more easily when access is from dumb terminals that have to subscibe for slower, less private more insecure and more easily milked cloud products. Steam is no different from azure, aws or google cloud. Shit for retards and normies. Cattle to the slaughter.
Very organic thread. Timmy's astroturf squad in action again.
>>732337960Go fuck yourself. I'm ordering a steam deck right now just to spite you. Valve will always be based. Just fucking die.
>>732338005It's either timmy or any of the numerois other public companies. They hate that they can't just buy stocks to subvert steam.
>>732338016Steam deck is a console thoughbeit, not a PC
Who /tiredofwinning/ here?
>takes 30% from pc devs>takes 90% from csgo/tf2 skins etc.>takes 70% from paid mods>nothing to show for all that wealth hoarded except ceo buying a fucking yacht companybeing a valve fanboy should be a bannable offense at this point holy shitkys nigger jannies

>>732337736You are retarded.You did not own any videogames.Physical media doesn't guarantee ownership in any meaning of this word. game with DRM on dvd and game with DRM on hard drive is the same fucking thing
>>732339501>nothing to show for all thatAside from being the best platform.
Is a steam machine worth getting if I already have a win5 gpd?
Never buying a St*am Machine.
>>732339359(You)
>>732340380Americans are so fucking vile and evil they unironically feel pride in their favorite billionaires for being the most evil jewish parasite out there like this retarded shill (doing it for free)
I don't understand the retard seething about this topic. Is it about how the product which doesn't even have a release date has not, in fact, released yet?>>732340572This shit isn't out yet, nobody knows. Wait for it to release and then do some research.
>>732337736>steam will get worse because... BECAUSE IT JUST WILL, OKAY!!! I NEED TO FANTASISE ABOUT PEOPLE SUFFERINGcope sperg, valve has been dominant for a while and if anything they've gone MORE pro consumer with their linux support, family sharing and soon arm supportwe're about to enter an era where you can play your games on any half decent device and cucksoles will be choked out of existence and turn into streaming boxes just to compete
>>732335024Are you retarded?
>>732340880>spouting textbook shill crap like "muh pro consumer, muh service" unironicallyPro consumer people don't milk their customers with physiologically addicting lootbox trash. Get the fuck out of here brown shill.
>>732340670And you'll never buy that Shitch, macaco. To be fair, you're not missing out lol!
>>732340572do you want the form factor and a console like experience?that's really the only question to ask herethough there's a fun use case i've thought upif you buy a portable monitor and lean it against the cube you can put it down and have a quick gaming setup pretty much anywhere with a socket access
>>732340976whales are mentally ill and deserve to be milkedvalve wasn't the first to the market and there's no reason for them to stopif they weren't giving money to valve then it would be someone else, at least valve uses that money for something useful
>>732341213>valve is pro consumer>actually valve is not pro consumer but that's okay because it's valve
>>732337736>MY decision is ackshually correct I'll have you know because of these things that I imagined which have not happened and continue to not happenlol
>>732341213>at least valve uses that money for something usefulUseful to who? Don't tell me you are part of Gabe's Yacht club and you're posting from there. Those are the only people benefiting from Valve's profit.
Come home, Steamie
>>732341276yes, they're the only ones pushing the industry forward with the aforementioned advancesthey're even pro consumer for whales since they can always cash outimagine being so fucking retarded that you relate to those low iq troglodytes that will desperately seek out ways to burn their money
>>732341543People like you and GabeN are put in jails for a reason, anon. It's not cool to sabotage people for mere profits. I hope those LAN dota sessions with gabe at yacht was worth it.
>>732341484>muh yachtsthose are marine research vessels>Useful to who? anyone who wants to be free from microsoft through their linux support and proton?anyone who wants to be free from consoles through steamos and steam big picture?anyone who wants to play more than mobile garbage on their phone through proton's arm support?anyone who wants to see vr improve through steam frame's universal compatibility and wireless foveated streaming through a simple elegant dongle?anyone who wants a high end controller through the steam controller?anyone who wants more tailored form factors through the deck and cube?
>>732341605those people would be milked by someone else regardlessi have no sympathy for whales, they'd seek out other ways to burn money and if you're not a whale yourself you have no reason to give a shitif you want a solution to this then petition your government to ban microtransactions and watch whales switch to something retarded like funkopops to satisfy their insane habits
>>732341775I'm not reading all of that.
>>732341891>i got into an argument i'm too stupid to fight yet i need to reply
>>732337217>everyone is leaving pc in droves latelylmao, no one who has something at least on par with Ryzen 3600, RTX 2060 and 16GB of RAM will be switching to console
>>732335024Just release the damn controller already
>>732341868So, start selling crack then you retarded hood nigger since it's victim's fault.Fucking retarded bootlicker holy shit.
honestly after the late 2000s, early 2010s maybe, valve just went to shit. im happy theyre atleast doing something with technology even if it is just a retarded cube, but hey its something man.
>>732342070but we already prosecute drug dealersuntil microtransactions become as illegal as drugs then you have no right to bitchand yes, it's on you if you got addicted to that shit, no one is making decisions like that for you
>>732342180All those excuses just to defend evil billionaires on the internet. How sad anon. I hope you meet them in hell.
>>732335024>MAP-colored socks
>>732341775They'll be out of business in three years
>>732342242pic related is literally you, whiteknighting for mentally ill retards with no inhibitionsagain, if you hate microtransactions so much then don't shit your pants over valve exclusivelyif you had any consistency you wouldn't even have any electronics to begin with and we wouldn't be talking
>>732339501It's the most nigger service, but sadly it Has tons cultists. Try telling a scam Citizen retard that his game is scam, you can't. And steamdrones are the same thing.Epic is bad, gog is bad, everything non-steam IS bad, that's the only thing they Can tell you. Why? They can't tell you that.>log into steam >immediately taken to shop with flavor of the month sale popup instead of your own libraryThat tells me everything i need to know about Steam.
>>732342641you look like you want to argue, can i get a rebuttal to >>732341775or are you people just going to keep seething indiscriminately
Remember when steam was the first one to push paid mods? What a gamer friendly company, isn't it?
>>732342701>i never made a mistake
>>732342701>NOOOO YOU DONT UNDERSTAND THEY NEED TO BE EVIL NOW SO THEY CAN SAVE US WITH MUH LINUX DRM STORES even though they are only pushing steam to troonix to secure their own monopoly interests not out of good will (valve loves leeching but not getting leeched back)shills have hard jobs, it's hard not to look incredibly unhinged defending billionaires investing in literal personal luxury yachtsyou have to lie through your teeth
>>732343191see >>732341775no one in the industry is doing anywhere near this much for gaming as a wholenot nintendo, not sony, not microsoft, not epic, not gog
>>732343368>see """lies"""are you getting lazy shillif you ran out of ammunition try again tomorrow
>>732343475can you point out one lie?all of that is obvious realityif you want to irrationally seethe at steam with no pushback do it from your own tranny discord
>>732343191I just don't understand why would they shill for someone that they pay to.>game 5% off>"Omg based Gaben, are you ready for a Miracle haha my wallet is ready meme xDxDxD"Is there even some points system or something for purchases that you Can use for discount later?
>>732343607that entire post is lieresearch? what fucking research?and i already told you they are pushing troonix for their own reasons. not for your own sake.nigger you are shilling valve as both pro and anti consumer. at one post you are saying they'll benefit gamers at another post you are saying it's ok for them to milk "mentally ill" people they made mentally ill in the first place. what are you even doing?You are contradicting yourself. Because you are lying.
>>732343828>the post that killed shillswewregardless they'll be doing same shit 3 hours after thread dies so that was a waste of energy
>>732343828>research? what fucking research?He is also the owner of the marine research organization Inkfish, the neuroscience company Starfish Neuroscience, and the custom yacht manufacturer Oceanco. >their own reasonsso you think objectively good deeds are tainted if there's personal benefit to them? why do you own any electronics? why do you eat? why do you live in a home? those are all made for personal profit and going by your own standards you should be boycotting all of that>at one post you are saying they'll benefit gamersyes, they benefit actually sapient people while you're hung up on whales like they're the only ones doing it or that whalism is curablewhy are you seething at valve if your impossibly high standards would result in you not being able to do or own anything?
>>732335024Microsoft can't do it either
>>732342701I would prefer a steam paid mods monopoly than whatever the fuck is going on at vortexmods.
>>732340805>AmericansNot american.>the most evil jewish parasite out thereHow is Gaben evil?
>>732335024Real pissy the Rothchilds lost ain't ya?
