minus-squareSacredGrayBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoThis subreddit can never, ever be trusted to discuss Valve in good faith. Valve 100% has a de facto monopoly, but people make excuses for it and frame it as a good thing. EGS has, what, 1% of the market? And people shriek at Epic for being a monopoly? And people want Xbox to be able to buy everything to get back at Sony, who has a 51% market share? People here are only selectively upset at monopolies when they can protect Steam and get rid of console exclusives.
