Steam is the superior platform and you they can’t compete with a company that gives consumers so much value, so they’re gonna claim monopoly, which is ironic because they don’t breakup actual monopolies, so why should they fuck over something that isn’t a monopoly? Oh right, because antitrust is a tool for companies to attack competition, not to avoid the consumer hellscape of monopolies.
Offer more value to gain market share. If you can’t, I guess your business model is worse than Yoru competitors, isn’t it?
Given video games place in the PC realm and the aggressive push for AI powered cloud compute, it they fuck up steam to disincentivize personal PCs, I wouldn’t be surprised. Been a few propaganda prices about Gabe/steam in the last couple weeks. Something is up.

My wonder is who is this benefiting? Is this a bid to get gaming under stricter control by destroying its main outlet for many?
