I literally never even mentioned epic???
I think you’re caught up in some weird fanboy shit I didnt even realise existed.
If it’s not true then let the courts decide that. If you’re right great, but if the lawsuit goes through, then it’s better for consumers.
Also steam being broken up isn’t at all on the cards here so idk why you’re even bringing it up? It’s a UK court, they don’t have the power to do that to an American company. Nor is it even in the scope of the suit.

So my experience accounts for nothing?
No, hence why I never said that.
So even though I’ve lost access to multiple titles because other software companies can’t get their shit together and were a terrible experience, I’m not allowed to use that as an example of why Valve has become the standard?
I’ve lost access to titles on steam.
But any argument against your opinion is “simping”.
Again not what I said. I’m saying that people ignoring all the negative shit valve has done and continues to do out of pure fanboyism, are simps.
What you are doing is a form of manipulation and gaslighting.
You are both hilariously overdramatic and just deranged.
Those things Valve was sued over were also industry standard practices.
Nope. And this is what I was talking about, you can’t even say “yeah that was a shitty thing valve did” you instead have to fervently defend every shitty practice anyway you can to protect your favourite multi billion dollar company.
Your argument is awash with emotional outbursts which tells the real story here.
Projecting in 4k. Or is yelling that I’m “”“gaslighting”“” you by saying Valve isn’t a good company just pure cold logic, lol.
Show me a single game company, of that size, that HASN’T been sued. Since that seems to be your metric of what makes a company so evil.
My guy. Are you honestly illiterate? Or are you so hopped up on fanboyism that it’s altering your basic perceptions of reality?
Either way I’m done wasting my time listening you do this.

So you genuinely, seriously think the only reason I support this is because I have some random obsession with the person running the lawsuit, and nothing to do with wanting better right for consumers?

Supporting consumer rights is basically the exact opposite of simping for billionaires actually.
- Comment on 4 days ago:
The argument that valve has a monopoly because their platform is just so amazing and all the others is trash is exactly the simping behaviour I’m talking about.
If steam wasn’t already considered the default and valve didn’t have this insane cult of personality around Gabe Newell, steam would be considered mostly on par with other providers.
We as consumers let valve get away with so much bullshit because of “omg lord gaben and his summer sales! My wallet isn’t ready XD” types.
Like valve had to be sued into have a returns policy, they popularised predatory loot box mechanics and pushed an entire gambling based economy on children and made ludicrous amounts of money from it, popularised early access and asset flip slop, caved to the whole MasterCard censorship campaign

They increased the price a couple times for various reasons

Valve bans developers from selling their games cheaper on other platforms. So if those services want to take a smaller cut than valve does, so Devs can sell their games cheaper on their platform, they can’t or they lose access to steam, by far the biggest platform.
This is blatant monopolistic bullshit.

Being a simp for a multi billion dollar company is never a good thing. It’s not good for you as a consumer and, frankly, is just incredibly cringe.
-
No, it’s not, the main point of the lawsuit is that Steam does not let game Devs sell their game for cheaper on any other platform.
So if you don’t like that Steam takes a massive 30% cut of your sales so that Gabe can buy his 27th mega-yatch, and you decide to also put your game on another platform that takes a fairer, smaller cut, then chose to pass on those savings to the consumer, then valve will kick you off the platform and you’ll lose access to by far the biggest market in PC gaming.
Fuck valve and fuck you brain dead fanboys simping for a billionaire and making everything worse for the rest of us because your entire worldview comes from memes.

Cool. Now tell me what did that protest achieve?
Hell, can you even tell me what the actual aim of the protest was? What were the demands? What was the threat if they didn’t get their demands?
Because otherwise it was just a fan meetup for people that don’t like Trump to show each other their quippy signs.

More like this, though technically goth is firstly a music based subculture so if you wanted to you could wear cargo shorts and polo and call yourself a goth if you listen to goth bands, but goth fashion has become it’s own thing and is usually what people refer to when they call someone goth.
And goth fashion is very Victorian influenced with dark and accoult theming and lots of corsets, lace and frills white or often white or very pale foundation with rather extreme black eye makeup and or lipstick and certain hairstyles like the bats nest.
Honestly it’s a bit hard to put into definitive words and it’s mostly a general vibe you get from them, but if you grow up in alternative social circles you are able to tell different sub culture fashion apart even if you can’t explain it precisely.

Tankies are basically maga but for “socialism”
They don’t have any actual values or morals and will happily support the most disgusting and heinous people that opress people, are racists wexist homophobic, that murder civilians and even commit genocide as long as they say they hate capitalism, and western imperialism.

Nah, the guy was a piece of shit and I’m glad he’s dead and fully supporting people meming in him. I’m not giving some opressive dictator that does all the same shit I hate people like Trump for, just because he also hates America.

It is not a black and white, all or nothing issue. You can fight the actual fascist agents while just ignoring the random attention seeking teenagers.
- Comment on Annon punches a Nazi 1 month ago:
So you think this shit eating loser now doesn’t support ICE, won’t don’t this exact same thing again after seeing the video he filmed get millions of views, and he gets massive support from the MAGA grift complex. This guy could probably make a career off of this event.
And then when other shit sniffing right wingers see that guy make money from it, they’re just going to copy him.
This will only do more harm than good.
