Valve "played capitalism so well they broke it" and now Steam can't be replaced
(www.gamesradar.com)
These dudes have no connection to reality. They only understand how to extract. They have no idea how to make anything. The assertion that you could vibe code a steam replacement completely misunderstands what makes Steam work. Sure there is an element of an entrenched market, but Steam sales are famous among their customers. They have mod support built in. Great features like remote play, streaming, social features. They've done amazing things for Linux gaming slowly chipping away at Microsofts control of the OS market.
These executives brains are completely rotten.
