G*mers when you don't use their monopolistic service: ๐ก
Which one is bringing exclusives to PC and working against Linux gaming?
Which one killed competition with anti consumer practices in the 2000's?
Which one popularised micro transactions?
Which one popularised loot boxes and gambling?
Which one popularised the current "Sell now, fix later" model
Which one bricks older titles because of it's DRM requirements
(The answer is Steam btw, I know I'll need to spell it out for G*mers)
It's not even the worst. If Epic goes down, you have lost everything. If Steam goes down you have lost everything. If Gog goes down you have lost nothing (because you have a backup I hope).
If Steam goes down I have no problems torrenting games I've already paid for
