I get that Steam is where everything and everyone is at. And that the user experience and functionality is best there BUT having another player to try an compete with Steam is a good thing, right?

If anyone can try, it’s the Fortnite Bank.

So, why the hate?

I don’t know that anybody is, and that’s concerning, no matter how satisfied with Steam’s service people are.

I’d prefer GOG to climb the ranks, but since I also wouldn’t want them to abandon the DRM-free mandate, I don’t see that happening, either.

Honestly, I agree, unless steam aggressively enshittifies themselves, I dont see any rivals catching up either. They are so far ahead, and so far, haven’t started screwing their customers.

And gog selling out to climb doesn’t really solve anything.
