Gaming

I don't care that Steam has an effective monopoly on digital games. That's fine. Games can and are on many other services for PC, but gamers want them on Steam. Fine. Whatever. You can even buy games from other services, get Steam codes, and use them as if you got them from Steam, even though Steam get no money from that sale. That's amazing. Really.

But.

They killed the idea that you can own a PC game. I mean legally own it, be able to sell your copy of it to another person, and no longer have it yourself. You could do that with physical. You still can with physical console games. But on PC that concept is dead. It's not coming back. And Valve did that. You now just rent them. Fine, you think, Valve isn't going anywhere. But one day Valve will be gone, and this will matter. No king rules forever.

And the least said about lootboxes and hats and all that scummy crap the better.
