oh wait
nvm
There will never be another platform that has the amount of weight it does
sorry
forgot about MC
and FN
lol
no it wouldnt, thats ridiculous.
Why are your wages going down then? Or your salary what's wrong?
so 88%
yes it would
dude
immediately all the big publishers would just stick up shop fronts and downloads
Wages have been static for 10 years while house prices have not been
are you forgetting everything that isn't a big publisher?
and also
indies would switch to the many, many alternatives
What made the housing prices go up?
are you forgetting that no1 is actively going to see the games advertised on 10 different services?
Was it the migrants?
The PC gaming market, in the event of sudden death of Steam, would fragment, but would recover
you go on Steam
alright
clearly you are divorced from reality
steam just isnt that big of a deal, its just a convenience, and pc gaming is a minority anyway
and are pushing personal issues
A few things, Joey
Do you honestly think the average consumer is going to go through the hassle of downloading 10’s if not hundreds of new storefront launchers that would ensue following the collapse of steam? No the hell they won’t.
to *you* yes
not to 90% of PC gamers
indie games would literally *not exist* without Steam
and even games by publishers are crazy boosted by it
Or quit playing games n get a job raise a family
I have a job
They'll fix themselves by the time u return
When the interest rates went to almost zero, housing became an investment class that attracted a shit ton of money - added to which the government pays 'housing benefit' a welfare which covers rent, and thus you created an investment class whose profit came at the expense of the tax payer
you dont need a storefront launcher - lets take an example. i can go to sony and they have whats called a "web site", and i can buy vegas which is a big chunk of data, and it "downloads" and i can install it.
and I'm young enough to not be expected of a family
Halo would never be on PC without steam. No one uses the Microsoft store to purchase and download games.
Coolitic how old are u
