Comment on Yep, I actually own 7,255 games on Steam. I’ve played 23% of my library. I regret nothing.

  So it’s the fault of the delivery-device?

  …yeah? Of course it is.

  Why didn’t you make a backup of an older version just in case?

  I pay Steam to do that.

  Besides, last time I checked, you can. With a bit more hassle.

  Not interested.

  All not the case for a “live” online-game. Which borderlands wants to be.

  That’s exactly the problem.

    If BL is “exactly the problem”. And GOG does it better. Why is it still steam’s fault? Use GOG then? Where is it the delivery-device’s fault? As BL2 offers online-coop, and is also the major selling point of that game, a fragmented market is impossible.

      Why would you think another company doing it better makes Valve not responsible? I don’t understand the logic.

      …no? It’s not. You don’t have to play it online.

        It doesn’t matter if you prefer offline or not or that you CAN play solo, it is online coop. I never played it coop either, but that’s what it is and hence everyone has to have the same version. Simple as that.

        Point with gog was that they do it better. Vastly so. Yet only a tiny fraction of devs choose them. Hence it begs the question whether it’s the platform’s fault per se.
