A Valve artist has defended AI disclosures on storefronts like Steam, saying they only scare those with "low effort" products.

Aww dude.

Good job ignoring Steam’s monopolistic anti consumer practices that caused their dominance.

Good job ignoring Steam’s multiple instances of willingly selling shit because they get paid either way.

Good job ignoring Steam had to be forced to give refunds by the EU.

You’re a good little sheep aren’t you.

You do know it’s a market place lil bro and the best marketplace available in general? The only better one I can think of is Costco and their tech return policies are worse than steam.

You do know DRM isn’t enforced right? You can release without it.

You do know the refund policy is MORE consumer friendly than what the legal obligation from EU requires right?

If calling me a sheep helps you feel better about your poorly researched takes (and incredibly outdated). All the power to you. I’ve said my piece now, I have no further will to continue this fruitless yapping.

DRM isn’t enforced right?

Good job completely ignoring what I said about Valve paying publishers to use them as DRM to forced a install base. That’s a good little lamb you are.

MORE consumer friendly

It is literally the bare minimum they are required, something they spent years arguing against. And you say I’m making poorly researched takes.

I know it’s hard to come to terms with how you’ve been treated like a fool. But don’t worry, one of these days you’ll see the light.
