Imma be so real with you chief. I love the convenience of steam, their customer service, and general transparency. They are no better when it comes to this, they can shut off your game too. They just don't do it cause they're not complete assholes yet

I get what you’re trying to say but in this instance it doesn’t make sense. You’re saying that PlayStation sucks for ending physical disc production but also saying that Steam, a digital-only platform, is great?

Lololol then they delete them from your library when licensing changes.

lol it’s their fault like 90 percent of sales are digital. Consumers don’t give a shit about physical media on scale. They aren’t going to keep factories open for 10 percent of console gamers. The math just doesn’t math.

I just pray that steam continues to have these values in my life time. I don’t know if I can take another disappointment like that

They are a monopoly, they just also happen to be very user friendly because they screw over indie devs instead

I would think that a heavy difference between the two is that steam has always been a digital platform, while Sony usually always published their games as physical copies as well as the digital copies. Along with such, steam relies heavily based upon the power of the computer, while console games are built around the console itself. And there’s also the issue that not everyone has the stable internet connection at home to always be downloading all of their games, and that a physical copy helps.

People who are less fortunate still be able to enjoy a lot of big titles, especially those who purchase most of their games second hand like I do. I rarely ever have the opportunity to purchase a new copy of anything and physical copies allow an amazing opportunity for people to be able to enjoy a game without spending the full 60-90 bucks for the game, when someone else decided they didn’t want their copy anymore.

How do you mean screwing over indie devs?

Steam takes a 30% cut of indie sales (which is insane) and only take like 15% for bigger companies

Thats because Steam wants large platforms to use their service theyre essentially trying to draw in a customer base. Indie hits have less overhead than larger companies and while it may seem unfair the amount of visibility Steam gives indie developers seems a fair trade off. Bigger titles do not need Steam to sell their product and dictate to Steam how much they give.

I’m aware, that doesn’t mean that steam doesn’t take an egregious chunk out of indie game purchases

Idt its "egregious" think about how much those developers would make without steam.
