but enough about tim sweeney
don't forget
keeps taxing 1/3 of the PC gaming industry's revenue just for offering download links and a basic website's features
ah shit you posted "tim sweeney"
guess OP is completely wrong now
ALL HAIL GABEN AND HIS MONOPOLY
not his fault everyone refuses to use other services besides steam
works with SBI
the company is infested with Indians, the VP is Indian
donates money to democrats and are overall really woke
Anon Babble still defends them
I don't get it, doesn't matter what valve does. Anon Babble will somehow defend them no matter what.
Actually his fault.
Forced steam on everyone's throat with exclusives like half life 2, counterstrike etc.
The whole steam sales thing to trick lots of new retards into their ecosystem.
Now steam is too big to ever fail.
don't care Nintendo mogs the fuck out of gayben
If that was what brought people to and compelled them to stay then the EGS exclusives would have converted more people.
>spends monopoly money on fleet of yachts instead of giving back to industry
unlike Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo
Valve isnt afraid to tell a dev who only wants to nickle and dime to eat shit
Did you miss the part where valve was there first and by the time EGS exclusives even happened millions of retards over the world already built steam libraries with hundreds of games? Steam isn't called monopoly for nothing. They are basically like government of PC gaming at this point. That's how untouchable steam is.
Riot's launcher alone have more users than all of steam, all the top played steam games are f2p crap mostly played by chinks and bots.
Non of the most played games on PC are on steam.
People heavily overestimate how many people actually use steam.
wow Valve why did you not give up on PC gaming in the mid 2000's like Epic did? why were you building a PC storefront then?
maybe the other devs shouldnt have mass abandoned the platform
do people on Riots launcher play anything other than Valorant and League?
Why does that matter? It just shows how few people actually use steam if 2 games alone can have more users than all of steam.
Not to mention it's just gambling, I have no idea why everyone praises him so much. He's cancer.
lol valve was the only one allowing that for any period of time. That garbage (and malware) is hard banned on all of those platforms.
Valve worshipers have always been the dumbest fucks in the scene
Incidentally, Anon Babble has always been one of the lowest IQ boards on Anon Babble even before consoletards took over the place
theres no forced advertisements on console
lol
theres no malware
thats called the console OS
I see you're retarded and don't even know what Valve has banned. Figure that out and then you can reply to me.
Console fag
I see you're retarded
LMAO
He won.
daily epigjeet seething at the superior platform
Why are you making fun of Indians? If you like Valve you must love indians, because it's an indian company
seethe more you worthless indian
So do you like Valve... but hate Indians when Valve is infested with indians? The freaking VP is indian.
you retarded gypsy, the 30% is on the devs and it's an industry standard. Not having it won't make the games cheaper as epic had proved
There is no "co-CEO" of valve and only certain VPs of certain departments you utter subhuman, and yes unfortunately pajeets work at valve like they do in every western company
Yeah anon all western gaming companies have an indian as their VICE PRESIDENT and all the high ranking roles to Indians.
But feel free to prove me wrong and show all these high positioned indians at Epic, you're the one that claimed Epic was indian after all.
invents lootbox cancer
But that was maplestory, the rest is true though.
Why do Indians post on 4tran pretending that they are 4tranners who hate Indians?
Killing GFWL saved PC gaming, correct. You're too young to know about it, stop idolizing an era you didn't live through.
Valve pay indians to shill like crazy here and they know nobody likes indians
OP, i know you are currently sucking Tyronne's dick clean after he was done pumping your femboy girlfriend (male) but clearly you can't be so stupid to see all of the good Valve is doing by literally applying regulations to AAA(A) studios tryin to further enshitify the industry.
I'm sure Valve knows they're the ones who fucked things in the beginning for some things, like lootboxes, but they're doing work to prevent further degradation an actually work to fix the industry through playing hardball with the EA, Sony, Microsoft and Ubisoft and co.
It was actually this guy that invented paid mods and loot boxes
Kmmos were doing gachas before the west
Valve is the one that POPULARIZED lootboxes, yes there was some instances with lootbox stuff before. But Valve is the company resonable for making it normalized, before people shat on it and then Valve made it and it was ok.
Stop being racist
Bethesda invented paid mods for skyrim
Yes, and?
why do rich people like yachts so much
>invents paid mods
id did that with final doom
billionaires are vain, like extremely so.
invented paid mods
wrong
invented lootbox cancer
true
kills physical media
it's not Valve's fault that stores stopped selling physical media. They just offered an alternative.
rampant censorship
you mean the one instance with Hatred that they walked back on? lol
Unless you mean the H visual novel slop that was initially removed from steam in which case ill give you that one.
spends monopoly money on fleet of yachts instead of giving back to industry
So you are triggered that Gabe is rich and doesn't paypig his personal wealth to random developers?
monopoly money
Not sure if ESL or underage retard
Don't forget:
Put leftoids in charge of the discussion boards
Your reviews can be deleted if found "offensive"
Your account will be locked if you get banned by jannies
Banned developers like the Domina dev for criticizing troons
Is a funder of the democratic party, Biden in particular
Hosts multiple anti-white sales every year in addition to fag pride sales
gaben won
keep seething
why are mutts like this?
Cultist behavior
Shut up Chris brat you're a fucking faggot
it's not Valve's fault
faggot, they literally started game key cards with half life 2
But when Microsoft and Sony ask for 30% cut it's alright
yeah because they publish and market games. Valve does nothing for the industry
shoo shoo, console drone
I don't think Valve stops other publishers from publishing games outside of Steam though. Just looks like a monopoly because it just werks.
If Epic actually tried to build their launcher with features like Steam (workshop, controller API, streaming, and a bunch of other shit) then I think more people would use it.
Not an argument
Gaben/Valve will make YOTLD real
turd worlder console tards keep seething
Seeing what Sony and Microsoft do to industry doing nothing is the better option
Steam is mostly third worlders
freaky shit in international waters and the implications
Gaben is pure
only because blood cant reach his penis
alright then stop playing games funded by them, yeah even the old good ones too
Implying i pay for games
So will you stop using steam?
be timmy tencent
seethe at valve and gaben
refuse to improve your own store
spend literally hundreds of dollars on jeets to shitpost about steam
Imagine if Timmy made a deal with publishers that they would only have to pay a 15% cut instead of 30% and a 5% if you are an indie game. He could drain steam dry but he is FASD'ed so it is what it is
enter thread about Valve
seething about Epic games
GOOD MORNING SAAR
be cultist
anyone who criticizes your god (gabe) is the devil (tim)
Its funny atheists replaced actual god with praising corporations
Epic store is the best thing that has happened to Valve, because know their paid indian shills and cultist fans can use that to deflect any criticism.
Seriously, make any kind of negative post about Valve and it will instantly be bombarded by "BUT WHATABOUTISM EPIC!?"
As bad as Gaben is he is no where near as anti consumer as Timmy
Forced steam on everyone's throat with exclusives like half life 2, counterstrike etc.
And this is bad because you are a retarded Anon Babble nigger, I guess.
gaben bad
timmy bad
ms good
sony GOOD
nintendo EXTRA GOOD
What causes this mental illness?
Tim gives free games and gabe doesn't so tim is nore pro consumer
You are too young to remember collective seethe caused by steam exclusivity
tim gives free shit so he is better because steam gives no shit
lmao
Valve employees used to shill and post here back when a lot of today's users used to be underageb&s. That's why there was so little resistance to Anon Babble accepting Steam to play HL2.
invents lootbox cancer
lol you're dumb
Here is another crackhead conspiracy theory
gaben actually runs Anon Babble and uses it for free marketing
No one cares about maple story or whatever.
Valve is effectively the one responsible for starting the lootbox cancer with TF2 mann kike crates.
Yeah anon those daily Steam Deck threads that directly link stuff to reddit are totally organic.
Yes
everyone has already forgotten the 2010s "praise Lord Gaben! PC mustard race" era of PC gaming
The reason everyone ignores Steam's faults and shits on everything else is because they were literally psyopped into worshipping him. It's a company strategy to make a brand a religion.
I am actually gaben, please delete your thread because you are making people notice things they should not notice.
it's the same turd worlder schizo making his retarded valve hate thread again
surprised you did not mention artifact yet
Why does Anon Babble like Sweet Baby Inc now?
any now trannies are licking his cock because he bundled a shitty windows emulator on his walled garden and channting YOTLD-ACK
When did paid mods happen? I thought they stopped it because you tards threw a tantrum, now we lost a decade of capitalist incentive to create great mods and stories ushering in new talent and opportunities because of a bunch of commie entitled faggots

But only turd-worlders use steam to begin with anon. English is only the 3rd most used language on the platform, after chinese and russian.
He had no choice.
no one cares about the aztecs we'll keep saying george washington carver invented peanut butter
Hey fuckhead, go make a real game instead of DEIdlock. If your washed-up company has any talent left, that is.
There's a bunch of free games on Steam
Also great games are never given for free by anyone, the best you can hope for is mediocre ones
Make a platform that has cheaper keys on sketchy sites and I use that.
Valve gave half life and L4D2 for free so those are mediocre
That was a myth that sprouted while he was still alive. He was a smart guy who was just like "Peanuts are great. Here's like a thousand things you can do with them." (and only actually patented a handful as his own creation IIRC) and people in the early 1900s went nuts and blew it all out of proportion.
I think it was Kellogg who actually made and patented the first peanut butter as we would recognize it.
I used to think Tim was great for creating unreal engine and making it free.
But Unreal slop is what's destroying the industry.
There's no salvaging it now.
You forgot that they also invented the battlepass.

they were still teaching he was the inventor in the 80s

kills physical media
Physical media for PC games were on a slow fall because it was hard to standardize the sales model. Especially as console gaming started rising and tooking space from stores.
Steam also made their storefront the best and made it easier for you to access all kinds of games. Printing games for smaller devs with covere and inviting big box packaging takes money.
YOTLD
It's never going to happen, ever.
I'm not saying this as some kind of revelatory "haha poor linuxcucks"
I'm saying this as a statement of fact. Linux will never overtake windows.
I know. I'm just saying the myth is as old as the guy himself because people have always been fucking dumb and like mythologizing people.
Yes, yes, well done. However
Created the best platform for gamers
Helped the indie and modding scenes to thrive
Saved pc gaming from the dark ages
Saved linux gaming
Steam sales
Has made some kino games with Valve
Gaben has some skeletons in his closet, but that doesn't erase all the good he did to pc gaming with Steam
Kneel
Saved pc gaming from the dark ages
How? The moment Steam got popular the golden age of PC gaming died, if anything he KILLED PC gaming.
And unlike lootboxes that was actually their creation.
Now here me out, innovative idea
Service that's equal to or better than steam
It's that simple
ALL HAIL GABEN AND HIS MONOPOLY
this but unironically
Average PC consoomer already has 100s of games on their steam libraries at minimum so they won't easily shop outside steam unless it's a very hyped game (something in the levels of hl3, wc4, dow4 etc.) exclusive in another place hence people calling steam rightfully monopoly. Steam got where they are through underhanded tactics like sales, exclusives and that is exactly the only way to beat them. Except steam had a gigantic head start and now you have to first make revolutionary game and second something better than old and tested steam which is basically impossible to pull of by any average joe or billionaire jew.
It was inevitable as soon as the concept of launchers was born that someone would "win" the market. I think we're incredibly fortunate that a privately owned company is that winner. Imagine if it was some publicly traded shitters looking for a way to reduce costs every week and never once considering how to make consumers INTENTIONALLY spend more money by offering them things they want.
I dont use other services (besides torrents) because I buy shit for 50% or more on sale on steam lol
I only really use Steam and GOG because they actually have something to offer me.
Epic doesn't really have much to bring to the table compared to either of them so besides free games there just isn't anything worthwhile to keep me there.
sales and exclusives are underhanded tactics
Jfc anon
timmy tencent seething
its OK all things should end
I hope videogames die soon and we move on to the next thing
Well, yeah. Why do I need steam running in background to play half life 2? It's bullshit and jewish.
Riot actually multiplies those numbers btw. If you play more than one game on their launcher, they count you as multiple users.
Free games from epic is better than bot free games on steam
Why do I need steam running in background to play half life 2?
That's the funny thing, you don't.
HL2 launches from the exe without Steam.
They don't even count valorant in those numbers, so it's TFT and LoL. and the playerbase barely overlaps t here.
So what else good does epic have besides free games they give out ever once in awhile?
At the time it also included Legends of Runeterra and Wild Rifts in the launcher when the articles about their monthly active users was released a few years back.
Made the greatest game engine of all time
Made the best shooter of all time
Gives free games
Fights agaisnt Valves ILLEGAL monopoly
Remember that here on Anon Babble we salute Tim Sweeney in his fight against Gabes satanic cabal

That was maplestory
it's more accurate to say valve POPULARIZED lootboxes yeah
and even then valve wasn't anywhere close to as predatory with it as other companies were and still are, it's all cosmetic shit

You've seen those lawsuits?
