I wonder what 5 people ACTUALLY use epic games. Like how unaware would one need to be?

I don't know of a single person that does anything more than getting those free games every week. My library has like 20 pages but all of it is those free games lol.

I would argue for a "Publishers are arseholes" tag, along with other ones like "Studio got closed", "fired most of the developers"

No no, you don't get it. Consumers are fine with medium doses of AI, we just have to cover it up and don't tell them.

This is important because then as a CEO I get to keep my cake and eat it too - I don't have to pay workers to make games, and still charge for them as if I had actual costs.

This moronic valve policy is gonna kill our golden egg chicken!

Perspective above brought to you by the average asshole CEO.

He seems to set a timer and make sure he reminds people about that at least once a month.

Not exactly TIL material.

Pretty much. They also welcomed nft games with open arms when Steam banned them lol

I know you can ignore a game on steam, can we set it to ignore a publisher and all of their offerings?

Valve could probably do a lot more to protect gamers but also they are actually very good about requiring disclosures that they absolutely don't have to have, like third party accounts, Denuvo, EULA, kernel anti-cheat, etc.

I agree with you on DRM, but it is worth noting that Value is a rare case where despite having a dominant market position, they continue to offer and improve the best client experience.

Not without missteps of course, but there are nowhere near as bad as Microsoft, Google, Apple, etc.
