Folks are just now getting the smallest taste of an ACTUAL connected environment for all gamers to play together. Think about what else has been going on for the past 25 years dealing with exclusivity - the console wars. He's the newest kid on the block trying to force developers onto one store. The biggest problem there is getting the large publishers on-board, but that's something that should end up solving itself in time as GoG slowly continues to grow and they start seeing more value in grabbing that audience. At this point I'd expect GoG to come up from behind while everyone is angry at EGS and the result would be way better - Steam gets an actually decent competitor that doesn't resort to Sweeney's hypocrisy. Steam doesn't try to leverage their position against anyone, and other storefronts do exist and are successful - the thing that started this was a tweet that GoG is doing well. While multiple storefronts competing would be better, I'm also not sure there's anything inherently wrong with the state of things right now.

And being a hypocrite about it (acting like what EGS is doing is better for the industry while EGS simultaneously does the exact opposite of what he says) means that however right his words are, he probably isn't the one people are going to trust to change things.īut at the end of the day, the majority of people don't want to use anything other than steam He kind of isn't wrong though, he's just going about it the wrong way.Īnd that's why it doesn't really matter how right or wrong he is. /r/GamePhysics - Clips of game physics shining and glitchingĭesign based on /r/FlatBlue created by /u/creesch./r/gaming4gamers - middle ground between purely-for-fun and more serious subreddits./r/GamingLeaksAndRumours - Leaks and Rumors.Posting unmarked spoilers will result in removal and warning, and posting spoilers with malicious intent will result in a ban.
