    Do valve’s terms dictate they can delist your game if you sell it somewhere else for cheaper?? Even if it is, that’s fucking shitty to have in your terms lmao

      As I understand it that’s the price everyone pays to use steam. Dont fucking use it if you dont like it. Why is this a problem? Because steam is too good is the only thing I’m hearing and that’s not steams fault. Everyone else has to do the same thing. Valve didn’t hide this. Also note that they didn’t in fact delist it. They merely considered it.

      This is the same problem/argument I had when microtransactions in games started. Everyone jumped on board and now we have a gaming industry that because users can’t fucking say no they bitch and complain when they don’t get what they want.

      Cry me a fucking river. Go sell your game everywhere else but Steam. Too fucking bad.

      Also I have bought literally hundreds of games from other places, cheaper than steam. Many of them I needed steam to download the games…

      Steam isnt doing anything wrong just because they are handsdown the goat of digital distribution. It’s about as anti competitive as Wayne Gretzky was at his best

        Didn’t even read all of it. Dumbest take ever. I wouldn’t support anti consumer behaviour but you do you.
