He's the savior of gaming. Meanwhile console users get censored games while we get uncensored games thanks to the fact Steam accepts unrated games.

I am still wondering why the FUCK Valve is screwing around with pre-built computers and shitty controllers. VR, I get. Skins, I get. Hats, I get.

I don't get why the most expensive projects also happens to be the most useless projects.
>>
>>321512923
Big gamble to try to kill consoles.
Since their only competition is wii u, xbone, and ps4 (really only the ps4 since the others are garbage) they probably thought they could steal Sony bronies and make some dosh in the process.

>>321512923
A Japanese friend seemed pretty happy about the Steam controller actually.

Did you ever hear the story of Gabe Newell the wise?
>No...
I thought not... it's not a story neo-/v/ would tell you. It's an oldfag legend. Gabe Newell was the valve lord of DRM, so powerful and wise that he could even convince the mainstream of consumers to adopt DRM. He had such a knowledge of DRM that he could even save developers from piracy.
>He could save developers from piracy...?
The dark side of DRM is a pathway to many abilities that some, especially neo-/v/, would call anti-consumer...
>What happened to him?
He became so powerful, had a monopoly on almost all developers... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his own power as a developer... and he did. Unfortunately, he taught some of his developer apprentices everything he knew... and they launched their own services, even more powerful - soon even his sales couldn't save him. Ironic isn't it? He saved other developers from tragedy yet he hasn't developed a game in over 5 years.
>>
A shitty service. The sales are the only thing they are good for, and even then they just sucker in people to a restrictive, anti-consumer web that includes a delivery service that is essentially a mandatory, always online DRM tool to play your games. PC gaming should be moving away from the crap consoles are trying, instead thanks to "based gaben" it's just as bad, if not worst.

Only pirates get upset about DRM.

>>321514404
Pirates dont give a shit about DRM because they dont have to deal with it.

Except they do and I'm glad.

Fuck off retard. At least Steam doesn't ban games they don't like unlike GOG.
>>
>>321514856
kek, DRM doesn't work and fucks over paying customers far more than it does pirates. Corporations are run by tight fisted idiots and I'm amazed the people who pay the money and keep them in business let them get away with it.
>>
>>321514856
Except they don't because by the time they download the game the drm has been cracked.
>>
>>321515110
Most games, not all.
Plus don't forget the irregular drm like fake pirated copies taht let you play for 90+ hours then ruin your game.

I hope you didn't buy a PS4 then.

GOG ban games they dont like? sauce? example?
>>
>>321516508
Gog refused to sell hatred....even though they sell postal 2.
>>
>>321516508
They've refused to add multiple games to their stores. Mainly those with "problematic" contents which is why you're not seeing some games sometimes. It's been also confirmed Monster Monpiece is coming only to Steam because of "problematic loli scenes".

Most steam drones won't even acknowledge yesterday's issues. You're wasting your breath OP. Any other company would have a rabid mob after them. but since video games go on sale for 75% off and most people on steam are underage, they don't care. The fact that their only acknowledgement of the issue was one forum post is inexcusable.

Nobody has asked for anything like a free game. However, as a customer, I am wondering why I would continue to do business with steam after this? Their piss poor response is perfectly in line with their shitty customer support.
