Comment on Did someone tell Steam it's not April 1st yet?
hackitfast@lemmy.world 5 months agoThey do like money, but Valve also loves providing a service to people.
Nobody uses Epic Games, Origin, Ubisoft Connect, or Battle.net because they want to, they use it because they have to.
Steam Awards is a bit janky sure, but to say that their inability to run pointless awards properly ruins the convenience and value that Steam brings to its users would be a gross overstatement.
No they don’t care about the service, we should be able to play games without steam client, we should be able to resell digital games, developers should not had to pay $100 non refundable fees to upload one game each time, etc.
Steam cares about money, it’s just that simple.
They’re a business, not a charity. OF COURSE they care about money. What’s nice is that they do it ethically and in a consumer-friendly way.
Are you able to resell digital games on Nintendos platforms? What about playstation or xbox? Wow, no you say?
Neither in steam, the keysellers are scams and the developers can scam you with the key. You don’t own the game, Nintendo lets you own games in physical format and has never let publishers remove them.
