    I love how everyone just sort of glazes over how astoundingly unpopular Steam was when it was first introduced.

      I was one of them. They proved my fears unfounded (so far). They’ve also managed to convert me to a fanboy at some point. I realised I was playing a co-op game brought off steam, on my steam deck, via a steam link to the TV, and the wife using a steam controller.

        I think steam is my favorite monopoly.

        ^Not saying it’s perfect. Just my favorite. I understand this might change at any time^

          At least it’s only a monopoly because everyone else is apparently idiots when it comes to long term planning. I’m dreading the day when they turn to the dark side. Long away may it be.

          Valve is Augustus Caesar: a benevolent dictator doing great things for their people. I’m afraid of what will happen when Gaben retires, how long will it take before we find gaming’s Nero?
