I’m really starting to worry about steam. There aren’t any good alternatives that seem to be hitting mainstream. Not to mention every now and then the shop gets ever so slightly worse and more spammy looking. Steam was a god send when it first launched and I’d hate to see it become what it replaced
there are alternatives, but when you take shitty games (at least crippled games) and pack them into another client that also requires you to sign up, again, is it worth the effort? the games aren’t worth at that point in my opinion.

Was it a godsend? I thought everybody hated it initially. And I feel like it’s only got better over the years as they’ve added more features.

Im not sure what you mean.
Itch.io and GOG are great alternatives.
GOG is awesome. I only get games from them.
