  • Probably because Valve doesn’t make games anymore. Not on any serious level anyway.

    Most of their games are old as hell, and most of them where in the “proof of concept” relm. They only really made games to push the technology they were working with.

    It’d be a poor argument to bring up their old catalog of games from 20 years ago as something that made them a worse company today.


  • It’s about more than just taking a 30% cut of sales. Everyone agrees that it’s a high price. So what else might the potential competition do that make them stand out as worse than Valve?

    Also, overworked and underpaid Devs are a different matter. You have look at their Publishers about that. I believe Valves Devs are quite well paid and far from overburdened.

    I feel like Deodorants and Perfumes for men aren’t as much of a choice as it is chosen for us. There’s like two main smells, “Old Sweat” and “Motor Oil”. Anything other than that is just variations of “Drain Cleaner Citrus”.

    Like clothes for men, the selection feels so limited.

    Yeees, let’s shit on people who spend money in their hobby and use their computer for more than just running overhyped games at medium settings.

    I am so tired of these attempts at justification for “Console Elitism.”

    Yes, you bought a cheap shit product because you don’t have the money or knowledge to build, or operate, a proper computer. Congratulations, you’re part of Sony/MS’s primary demographic.
