So you think having to buy a unique licence for every game is a better alternative than being able to buy an actual copy of a game that you own, second hand for a fraction of the price?

Because thats the argument here, not comparing them to netflix, comparing steam to a model where you actually own the media you buy and can do what you want with it.

I hope his boots are tasty

I don’t buy any software FOSS all the way baby.

Yeah physical media died, and guess who was leading the charge on licence based media a decade before streaming was a thing?

markedly for the better

Yeah I’m so glad I don’t actually own any of the games in my steam library.

It’s amazing how many people drop the whole “nobody becomes a billionaire by being a good person” rhetoric as soon as you mention their pet wholesome chungus billionaire.

You guys are just as bad as the people that defend musk because “he’s real life Tony Stark! He makes rockets and electric cars!!!”

Yeah it’s not like he popularised the model of only owning a licence to a game, not the game it self, popularised lootboxes and keys and made tons of money of pushing gambling on kids, had to sued into having a refund policy, popularised early access as a business model, takes a huge 30% of profits of other people’s labour, and was the first to fold to puritanicals that wouldnted him to ban certain games from the platform or anything like that.

Yeah lord Gaben is my wholesome good guy billionaire.

Gyro control is still just a gimmick, but grip buttons are decent I guess.

But it’s still combining a controller and a kbm and ending up being worse than either one individually. And there’s only a very limited niche where a steam controller could be better than either on its own.

I genuinely don’t understand the hype beyond valve fanboyism. They already released a steam controller years ago and it was actually terrible, like there’s a reason no one else has even bothered to try and copy the track pad controller gimmick, because it’s just bad.

Thanks for the meme, but all these are real words, so it’s not quite the same innit?

I would quite like the money, drugs and sex. You can keep the fame though.

Although actually the fame could help with the money, drugs and sex. Hmmm

I would show my proof, but I don’t have enough space in this margin

Can confirm, I’ve also showered with your dad 😏

At least UIs are standard now, back in my day (and still some today) people would make everything a CLI and then bitch at you when you told them that their very computationally efficient video trimming tool is cool and all, but editing video from the terminal is worse than CBT.

The humble bacteria:

They increased the price a couple times for various reasons

I just lick the residue off

I went to the mystery shack in Gravity Falls, Oregon and definitely didn’t get ripped off. It was a great time

Mmmmmm maid Mario
