And then I see people complaining about Steam having so much of the market cornered. They ๐Ÿ‘ don't ๐Ÿ‘ pull ๐Ÿ‘ shit ๐Ÿ‘ like ๐Ÿ‘ this

This right here. So much space and energy being used to bitch about Steam that could be used for, oh, I dunno... Sony. Microsoft. Nintendo. Giant players that have held tacit monopolies for years and literally engage in anticompetitive behavior on a regular basis.

If I had room for one more conspiracy theory, I could point to a handful of companies that probably would not be above paying people to bitch about Steam...

(points up ^^^)

I bitch about steam because it has issues. I don't bitch about the others because they have issues severe enough I just don't use them whereas steam is running anytime my laptop is running
