While many accuse Valve of monopolising the PC gaming market, others argue that Steam's dominance is simply the result of doing things right.

Competition keeps them honest, and right now we need more real contenders, not just storefronts throwing money at exclusives.

Then the competition should put in the work.

That’s hard to do when Steam has all but cornered the market. Say what you will about Epic’s ineptitude, but even investing billions, the publisher of the biggest game ever can’t break into the market. Now imagine how hard it’d be for a smaller player.

The competition is at work, but too many fanboys blindly bashing on anything that isn’t Steam is making it very hard for them.

The only competition is GOG and they will never succeed with DRM free for the big AAA. Epic succeeding is the worst case scenario
