I bought lower price steam game on gog and dlsite
I bought lower price steam game on gog and dlsite
Mseems fine to me
Aidk, depends on their partnership, if they make keys
ZIs there a ujust command to install atuin?
KSince the game is going to be pretty niche and I'm actually going to rely on Steam SDK for some stuff I don't really care about other platforms
SBut when you buy on gog you are not buying a "steam key", you are buying the game on gogś platform
SValve has an issue if you sell Steam key undercutting them while making use of their infrastructure and bandwidth
Ayou are pretty safe with steam honestly, that 30% tax is for so much stuff
Mthe more we talk about it, the lawsuit just feels more about steam key rather than the whole 30% stuff
Ayeah, and the keys argument can be cleared up by reading one partership page
Myeah
SHonestly, the whole "Steam is a monopoly" and "Steam takes too much" debacle is stupid and dumb
Aits not misleading at all, people just believe one liners and grant it as true
SSteam is a monopoly because it provides a better service. If you don´t like how much they take, you are free to sell your game to the 5 Epic Games Store users that there are out there
Aor at itch.io
Awhich is way better
SYeah, the 10 itch.io users
SDouble the ammount of users than EGS
Afr
Acrush is one afaik
SThing is, Steam provides a good service, not only for the devs, but specially for the customers, and that's why they are in the position they are
Vone what
Adont forget the undertale ripoffs
Aitch.io user
Aafaik
VUhhh not often, just if a game I want is on there
SI love GOG and the "no DRM" thing, but every time I try to use their app and store I seriously consider killing myself to end my suffering
SThankfuly I can run the games without using their launcher, but still
KAlso, they provide leaderboards too. And more that I don't remember probably.
Mtho even if all of us know steam is providing good service, not sure how out in the court the listener and judge could understand how good those services are rather than just focusing on the 30% stuff
Asome gog games that went to steam have official cracks in them made by the devs themselves lol
ZI think heroic launcher got also some kind of partnership with GOG(?)
KOh and Regional Pricing is a big thing too.
Hyeah
i can possibly pay a little less for games on egs, but the launcher is just DOGSHIT (how does the third party heroic launcher have better ui than that), and the service may as well not exist

KIt was kinda cut off in Argentina and Turkey due to inflation issues and people from other countries exploiting it too
Areminder that valve is trying to casually killing shadowplay
Acause why not
ZShadowplay? From nvidia?
SThe best thing about EA and Ubisoft moving to their opwn launchers is that I don´t have to see their stupid games on the Steam store anymore
KBut I as a developer can adjust the pricing manually if I know the market
Ayeah, steam beta has a recording feature now which is being tested
VI appreciate Valves recording feature but 24Mbps is not "killing" shadowplay
ZMakes sense, I think Nvidia killed whatever sunshine was supposed to replace
Astill in beta, maybe it will improve
VI think they just called it gamestream
ZBetter to have an alternative
ZAh yeah that
KYeah its a shame, and I'm actually really frustrated at those people, I know some guys from Chile that did it too...
HSpiritfairer deserves better than that ):
Atrue
KAny game tbh... Thing is, how do they control that stuff... I don't know...
