@VTArgyle no amount of bullshittery can compete with good service

@Meemoo @VTArgyle Yeah, it also helps that Valve is still a private company, so they aren't legally obligated to Jew people out of money at every opportunity to make stock price go up

@Meemoo @VTArgyle
>Steam
>Good
No amount of bullshit, hard effort, or good service can compete against a monopoly and a bunch of retarded, droning fanboys. :zt_sip:
-
@SuperSnekFriend @VTArgyle >steam is bad because uhhhhh..... it just is ok?
Being a contrarian doesn't make you look smart
-
@ninja8tyu @SuperSnekFriend @VTArgyle GOOD MORNING SIRS PLEASE DO NOT REDEEM THE STEAM SIR YOU BLOODY BITCH
-
@Meemoo @SuperSnekFriend @VTArgyle i disagree
-
@SuperSnekFriend @Meemoo @VTArgyle To give them credit, their assistance and funding of WINE, DXVK, etc. have significantly advanced gaming on Linux. Plus playing games through Steam on Linux is unbelievably smooth. I mainly wish I could use an alternate client or a CLI tool to download and manage games from it, I don't like the Steam client using webshit for its UI.

@SuperSnekFriend @Meemoo @VTArgyle
I mean as much as I hate drm

@theorytoe @Meemoo @VTArgyle
>loss
What am I losing again? :awoo_chew:

@Meemoo @VTArgyle
>Steam is shit and you are helping the shit state of gaming by supporting it. Plus worshiping Gabe is gay, and passe because it's not 2013 anymore.
>Y-y-you are just being contrarian
I haven't used Steam for gaming since 2015. I'm not contrarian.
>Workshop introduces mods with DRM
>Paid mods
>Glorified gambling that children can access
>Don't own the games
>Political bullshit in many of the community hubs
>Censors Japanese games sold on there
>Deleted games for retarded reasons
>Forces bad patches (ex GTA: SA) on you
>Allows incomprehensible amount of garbage and encourages people to buy and make garbage
Just pirate like a normal gamer and fund good devs directly or with alternatives.

@SuperSnekFriend @VTArgyle ok name a better PC storefront then
>Inb4 GOG
GOG serves the CCP as seen by them removing a taiwanese horror game because it offended the commies and they don't have all the games that I want
>B-But what about pirac-
Irrelevant, we are discussing stores here.

@kilostere @Meemoo @VTArgyle @theorytoe
You can't lose what you never had.

@SuperSnekFriend @Meemoo @VTArgyle @theorytoe
so true
-
@SuperSnekFriend @Meemoo @VTArgyle
a good gaming experience (at least in the last ~5 years of AAA releases)
-
@SuperSnekFriend @Meemoo @VTArgyle
valve is gay, just the least gay of the options available
i use it for multiplayer games, otherwise i pirate
-
@Meemoo @VTArgyle
>ok name a better PC storefront then
There are none.
>Irrelevant, we are discussing stores here.
lol, lmao We're discussing why Steam, and by extension, Valve, is shit. Pirate like a real gamer. :jahy_sip:
-
@SuperSnekFriend @VTArgyle
The thread is about big companies being forced to go back to steam / getting fucked because they couldn't compete with it's better service. The valve/steam being bad is something you brought up and are now trying to drag me into.
>Just pirate like a real gamer
I do, but that's irrelevant to the conversation
>Doesn't mention any stores
I accept your concession
-
@SuperSnekFriend @Meemoo @VTArgyle
just a gamer

>frontpage nigger worship sales
>rw devs get removed for wrongthink while lefty devs can edit content out of the game after years AND delete all comments pointing it out
>you could even buy xboxs stupid 5€ monthly fee to get hundreds of games as opposed to 80€ for a shitty game you're barely gonna play
>or god forbid you could just pirate the games

@smugumin @Meemoo @SuperSnekFriend @VTArgyle lets also not forget the fact that if valve decides to close your account your games are fucking gone with the account

>This arguing is something you brought up and are now trying to drag me into.
>Varis OP's pic (from a cuckchan OP, who is always a faggot, from /v/, one the worst boards of an already shitty, Redditard-filled site): "Every publisher is going back to Steam. And GOG (or EA Origins or Epic I haven't heard myself) is laying off workers. Gaben is a god."
>First reply to the thread: "no amount of bullshittery can compete with good service (i.e. supposedly Steam)"
>Me: No, Steam is shit. (via implication maymay)
>Several posts later, you: "Why are you dragging me into this? This is all irrelevant to the thread."
Do you not see the problem or the poor logical process here?
Arguing about the meta of the conversation is boring anyways, so can we not? :kek_pain:
>I accept your concession
What? I said there is no good store or central client. For your statement to be the riposte you think it is, I needed to have said nothing. :asui_what:
Can we really not do this?
-
@SuperSnekFriend @VTArgyle
The logic is "poor" if you fail to understand it.
"No amount of bullshittery can compete with good service" (aka no amount of exclusives or free gibs can compete if you're not offering a good service. The layoffs were from Epic)
You refuted this claim, implying that you had something better in mind. The topic being PC game stores.
>I said there is no good store or central client
Which in itself is a non-answer so my statement still applies. :shrug:

@MoeBritannica @smugumin @Meemoo @VTArgyle @rlier23
So true! :gura_uohhh:
-
@SuperSnekFriend @MoeBritannica @smugumin @rlier23 @Meemoo @VTArgyle I want to find out if she’s one of the sharks that lays eggs or gives birth to live young
For science of course :jahy_hyper:
