Can we talk about how terrible launching a video game on PC has become? Remember which game market it was in, get inundated with ads, navigate to library (which is never the default view), click “play”, get asked by the game to log into their bullshit proprietary account, then get dumped into a launcher trying to get you to buy more crap, then, finally, launch the actual game.

“What if trying to play a game was even worse than going to a movie theater” is a bold choice

@Jbw Related commentary: I am of the belief that Apple should not have a distribution monopoly on their platforms (esp. iOS/iPadOS), and that alternate app marketplaces should exist. However, every time I have to launch Steam and deal with the flow you mentioned in your post, I am torn…
@247arjun “Heatbreaking, the most terrible AppStore monopoly you know made a valid point”
