    Uh huh, and I’m sure you’re privy to the exact financial breakdowns?

    If someone could actually provide a better service than steam at a better price point, they would. The epic games store is shit, uplay is shit, origin is shit.

      I agree with you, but its not an argument in Valve’s favor, that is unless you support monopolies. “They should take whatever they can, because no one else is competition.” Yeah, great. Capitalism at work. I agree that’s what they should do if we’re talking pure capitalist ideology, maximize profit at any cost. Is it the right thing to do though. They obviously (from the topic of this thread) make more than enough to pay every employee extremely well and then have a ton left over. They don’t need to charge 30% to get by.
