Comment on AAA Dominance Is Eroding: 56% of PC Gaming Revenue Now Goes to Games Outside the Top 20
mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.works 1 week agoFuck off with your false equivalence bullshit.
EGS has used anticompetitive and anti consumer practices from day one, all because Tim Swiney is a petty asshole that wants to be at the top of the pile.
Meanwhile Valve has generally been pro-consumer and built a relatively good service

Lol, another steam sucker ready to die for billionaire Gabe. They basically invented gambling for chlidren, they actually are the one that have anticompetitive practice lmfao, they dont let you own your games, they take a huge cut of 30% (epic take 12%, but you dont care about game devs right), they make billions in profit but employ less than 300 people.
But I’ve met enough of your kind to know your cognitive dissonance to know that no amount of proofs that steam suck would make you stop kissing their ass. You guys are the maga of gaming lol. So yeah, the hard truth is you don’t like games you like steam, and you dont like music, you like yourself. Now fuck off yourself, you are the problem.

The gambling sites aren’t owned by Valve
Citation desperately needed, and not just the one internal email from 10 years ago that reads like a misunderstanding.
30% is standard across the industry, including itch.io and GOG. And given that EGS just laid off 1000 employees, it’s looking like 12% isn’t a sustainable business model.
Don’t forget that EGS has been using anti-consumer policies like paid exclusives from the start. Meanwhile Steam, GOG, and itch.io don’t force exclusivity, allowing an open ecosystem. Tim Swiney isn’t against monopolies, he’s just mad that he doesn’t habe one.
And let’s not forget that Steam has been investing in open source and Linux gaming for years. PC gaming are getting close to a point where making walled off gardens becomes impossible.
Do I think billionaires should exist? No. But when there’s one that’s actively building systems to keep digital ecosystems open permanently, I’m willing to make an exception.
But you’re clearly just some gullible jackass that fell for Tim Swiney’s propaganda hook line and sinker. You speak of cognitive dissonance despite being fully immersed in it yourself. Go touch grass; you desperately need it.

Blablabla “good billionaire’s ass tasten good” blabla epic bad blalabla lol.
You have 0 clue what you’re talking about if you don’t even know about the gambling scheme valve invented. They are currently being sued for it by the state of New-York, on top of all the other lawsuits. If you had any small amount of critical thinking you would watch the Coffeezilla video about steam but I’m willing to bet my life you wont do it because you have a condition called COGNITIVE DISSONANCE that make keep on sucking a billionaire’s ass, exactly like maga will always kiss trump’s ass, you’re equally stupid.
I don’t give a fuck about Epic and I don"t know who Tim whatever is, all I know is steam is predatory dirty capitalist business that steal billions from kids and games dev, and still gets their ass kissed by stupid braindead morons like you incapable of basic critical thinking, you are the problem. You can go back to pretending you like videogames while sucking some billionaire’s cock lol. BTW steam never ever had had more than 300 employees because they dont even need to create jobs for idiots like you to say shit like “I’m against pedo but I’m willling yo make an exception” lmfao
