Yeah
Then again though, Steam is shit
So in one way, I kinda like this
I'm glad steam is being forced to compete once more haha
They're crying like a true monopoly does
It just sucks for me cause I am a steam user
Problem for the majority is
Steam is the only platform they've ever used
And thus have built up a massive library
Netflix is suffering the same problem
You can still buy it Urzu
Multiple streaming services are now competiting
Tempted to do some last minute buy ins to annoy Valve and Metro fags
Each with their only exclusives
It's annoying with netflix
Whereas before Netflix had everything under the roof and then some
Disney taking the marvel films
Fuck them
Same with steam
Now everyone is opening their own store
And it's fragmenting the PC user base
Though it is good steam's finally gotten competition
Gaben can't sit on his lazy fat arse and just rake in retard dosh from trading cards and fucking hats
Its good for there to be competition, the problem is every time competition shows up, nobody actually tries to make said competition actually pull people from Steam beyond forcing exclusivity
Exactly
They're just steam clones
Yeah I don't like that it's forced
No one wants to take a risk
And introduce features
That people might actually want
The only risk Tencent is taking with the EG store is not as much profit, but at the same point, even the shills kind of don't care as much about it
Yeah exactly
So is this pirate territory?
I mean steam is already hurt by the pullout
So it doesn't matter.
Steam is going to honor preorders, but yeah, I'd say pirate territory
The problem is in the text:"Publisher decision"
If the dev studio didn't have a say in it, I'd feel bad for gyping them out of what little cut they make under Steam and their publisher.
