  • So basically "Valve discovered a gold mine by selling you so many games" and "it's your fault for spendijg money on games". Yeah wait wut? As if it's someone's fault that so many games are getting released. Also ending with "beware, not every customer is a die-hard fan". Wow.

    Go crack the F2P business model next, Sherlock.

  • Point taken. Still, I think designing the game around positive things like team work and rewarding experiences is important.

    I can't see why server side solutions won't work when implemented properly. High ping? Just provide more servers and allow players to filter that out or do that automatically.

  • Owning megayatchs... is not equal to being an evil corporation like Sony or Nintendo. Steam is not a monopoly either, or at least it doesn't try to become one with predatory tactics like, say, Epic.

    As for defending, I know people suffer due to what people like Elon did and does. I know no person who suffers from what Gaben did or does.

    It's not Gaben simp squad story, it's Gaben hate squad story. And I don't see adequate reasons for that hate. Guess some people just like dividing everyone into "good peasants" and "evil multimillionaires".

  • Worse. Steam is basically built on top of CEF, which is not much better than Electron.

    It's amazing how deep Chromium (and web tech in general) got into everything. Microsoft - which I regarded for how light and well optimized Windows 8.1 was - went from using Chromium for Edge to using it basically everywhere. Latest observation is how you open Copilot app, chat a little and see how it eats 4 GB of RAM and lags like hell, on a higher end business laptop.

  • With all respect for people who hate Apple (myself included), this doesn't look like how penalties should work. I doubt there are adequate standards of how an entity like EU can request any percentage of global revenue from anyone. What would you do if you request any more than Apple considers adequate and decides it's more profitable to just leave your market?
