Dont buy your game codes on steam if you use steam!

Gamestop sells them among others.

Hard to walk away from steam services but GoG is non drm, so once they get better linux integration going start a library there.

Bottom line everyone should be disturbing their spend among various players.

While steam is great, once gabe is ded, we are cooked frogs.

Eh… I have a 500+ game library on GOG and moved back to Steam in 2020. Steam just has too many good features. I’m at the point where I don’t really care about DRM anymore. I know that’s an unpopular opinion but after 20+ years I realize it’s just a boogeyman.

When DRM is implemented without problems (unlike denassvu) its generally absolutely not relevant when you buy a game.

That’s your opinion dawg… my opinion is that i don’t to pay for that trash, so now I don’t.

I have other options when I don’t like how a vendor behaves ;)

I can keep this up as long as fit grey markets exit and/or Fitgirl is around. So prolly until I am dead.

These shiti corpo operations should get a hint, this aint rent or food lol 100% discretionary media with apple options

I would not call it a booegyman… it is a non burger for avg gamer tho.

But for people who think bigger, it is a valid concern IMHO. Also, if it is not for people who think bigger, we would never big here tech wise.

If we keep accepting current trends, everything will get shittier…

Steam is an exception to this maxim, but for how long?

Steam is literary labeling denuvo as unwanted feature… They are a market place. Not the publishers.

I’ve been waiting for Galaxy for Linux for 10 years, since they announced it in 2014. They obviously don’t care.
