Yeah, but it won't have that magic Steam logo.

How else would LordGabeN afford to buy all those Aston Martins to race around the world.

Saying there's multiple retailers, while also admitting they just give you a Steam code is some wild delusional G*mer behaviour.

Valve is actively fucking consumers by preventing games being sold cheaper elsewhere.

And G*mers throw a pissy fit anytime you suggest using them.

Also Steam leverages it's monopoly to prevent games being sold cheaper on other services.

Whatever you say sheep.

If it wasn't a monopoly they wouldn't be able to prevent games being sold on other services for cheaper

Because Steam has held a monopoly for years and generations of G*mers have been brainwashed into accepting it.

Don't get in the way of Lemmites trying to be edge lords.

It's to most Lemmy ahh take imaginable.

We HAD a lot of choices. Because there were lots of digital distribution platforms back in the 2000s.

Until that libertarian bastard paid publishers to use Steam for DRM on physical releases.

Used its Most Favoured Nation clause to prevent other services from charging less.

And whoops. They all go out of business.

Generations of G*mers have grown up only knowing the Steam monopoly. That'll they create any old excuse to try and defend it.

Belle.

The original Lemmite.

To stop voids of personality do copycat incidents
