Wouldn’t “WoW vet” imply they have been and are currently working on WoW? Or does “vet” specifically imply no longer active?

Plenty of people do or use a lot of things that more people don’t. My point was that not everyone knows what a SteamDeck is. You rebutted by saying people on steam know what it is. Do you not see how terrible of an argument that is? You were basically conceding, but you worded it like you weren’t trying to make my point, even though you did.

Yes, people on steam know about the SteamDeck, the majority of the US and world population, do NOT know what steam is. Therefore, by your own logic, most people don’t know about the SteamDeck.

and regularly markets the SteamDeck to it’s user base.

Exactly my point. If you aren’t using steam, you probably won’t see marketing for it.

Not sure why this is getting down votes. Price is the key factor most parents look at, and most people who aren’t into technology probably don’t know what the steam deck is or know what “gaming on Linux” means. That is what is stopping a good friend of mine. Price is a huge factor, but the intimidation from lack of knowledge is just as big

But why couldn’t Steam “legally” offer offline installers the way gog does?

So, “licensed” is a legal term. Explain to me how being able to keep something forever, isn’t the same as owning?

How is having an offline installer that can’t be taken away, not the same thing as owning?

It’s literally in the title that GOG does exactly that. Why would Steam’s hands be legally tied if GOG’s aren’t?

If you like being OP, definitely.

It popped up on my secondary monitor and I wasn’t using it, so I didn’t see it all day
