„PC Gamers“ are not a monolith. I buy games on Steam if they are not anywhere else. It’s not like I have an option, I‘d prefer a non-US, DRM-free alternative, like GOG. But most big publishers refuse to not exclusively release on Steam.

Fuck this title. Pc gamers are not in a battle against valve. We willingly gave them the pseudo-monopoly they have because they’re the only company that treats us right. All the competition has to do to break it is be decent but they all fail at the bare minimum.

You’ll have to convince those other developers to release on GOG. It’s not Valve preventing them from doing so.

I think it’s less of a monopoly and more of the fact that they won the market share game. I could buy all my games somewhere else but I don’t know why I would do something so stupid.
