Steam is a good platform, if only other platforms the same level of freedom instead of not allowing people that purchase the game to not review the game. Remember when Netflix allowed you to rate a movie? It would help a lot, and a good UI would do good too.
I'm in the UK and i feel ashamed this is going on from my tinpot country, sounds like a shakedown, the activision blizzard deal was nearly blocked from the UK too, its almost like in some circumstances you can rent the british government
Anti Trust should rename to Anti Success. Microsoft and Valve are smart organisations and know how to operate a sustainable business. Sony and Nintendo while still successful are significantly behind the trends of cloud gaming and things like AI. It's all about consistent growth.
The only change that'll be made if Valve loses is likely that UK based devs will no longer be allowed to generate keys, and UK based consumers will no longer be able to redeem keys. Steam doesn't set your prices. You're just not allowed to sell steam keys for less on other platforms. Even if Epic charges less than 30%, no profit driven dev is going to reduce their potential revenue by making their game cheaper on another platform.
This is ridiculous. I usually despise giant companies but Steam sits far apart from the others. They treat their community well and stand up for gamers. Steam rules the market with good reasons - games go on sale regularly, easy to use purchase and install of games, good cs support, large variety of games, supporting content creators, and the attention they show their community. If other game sites could get their shit together and give players positive experiences they would grow in size.
i like steam beause it is fair and i think they know we like them beacuse of that and that makes toons of money for them ALSO you can get keys and not pay steam anything
Gaben:
* does nothing
* still wins
Sounds like sour grapes from Epic.
UK has the highest debt to GDP ratio of Europe, they are in need to legally extort money any foreign company they can.

capitalism is corporations renting the government
I literally want all my games on Steam, nobody wants to have to use 7 different launchers to play different games.
@@volf3r505 If i try to play Fortnite on Steam, it's still going to open the Epic Games Launcher first. That's what I don't want.

No one ever consider steam a monopoly. Pc games don’t need to be sold thru steam at all
F steam for lying about prices

i do prefer buying on steam but just sayin they allow freedom
12:20 you miss understand.. if you generate STEAM KEY's and sell them off platform Steam doesnt take a cut there. they are still STEAMKEYS
Also allows grey markets to exist like g2a
Epic Games forces you to be online to play games, I'll go with Steam.
