I remember seeing in the beginning credits one time how it's based off of a novel and thinking "huh I wonder what its about?"

And then going back in to the bakery store and the woman was saying "its about the interpersonal conflicts of everyone living on the same street its very moving, nothing like this shite"

Yes in the shithole that is America this is how they operate.

If you can, stay far away from USA.

I mean at an airport it is kind of warranted though. The only other options are to leave and go home and miss the flight (If you're even near your home at that point), miss the call and put your job on the line, or go to the bathroom I guess but this is still public.

At least they aren't doing it on the plane.

in a leadership role

it's more important to be confident than to be right

put new, unreleased games up for sale at up to 50% off without permission from the devs during their first sales event

Holy shit I did not know that that definitely deserves some serious hate in that case.

The exclusivity stuff I get the hate for a little but PS and Xbox and Nintendo did the same thing for a couple decades but it still doesn't make it right that they did either. But I do get it a bit.

I do prefer Steam and love what they do for Linux the steam deck is one of my favorite toys. But if I see something for cheaper on Epic than on steam I'll always go for the cheaper option but some people act like epic doesn't even exist as an option which I get a little more now after seeing some of these things you mentioned the forcing devs games into sales without permission is super fucked up.

"Do what I want or the people will suffer"

What's wild about this too is that if you get a speeding ticket or something and don't pay or miss property tax payments for a year they will send police to your house.

If you or I (I'm assuming you're not a politician since you mentioned corruption) laundered even $10,000 through shell companies we would get 10 to 20 years in prison and fines of double the amount laundered. And can't own or operate LLCs again.

But when fucks in suits do it they get pardoned and hired back. I bet his wife got to keep those companies too.

Yes and I have said the same thing in other comments before.

What about my comments made you think I don't like or support steam?

I said that people complain about the epic games guy but also whine and moan about Gabe having yachts. Then you said they are being consistent and I said well when they recommend to use other millionaire/billionaires platforms that is not being consistent that is hating on a specific platform for the same things other platforms do (have rich people run them)

I'm confused about what you are defending or against here.

You can see in my comment history I have said the same thing you just said before to people anti steam. I love steam, and what it does for Linux.

But that doesn't mean I'm against epic either.

Do you like cross platform gaming? Thank epic.

Hating on one but defending the other is exactly what I said doesn't make any sense. Every successful gaming company is going to have millionaires. So when I said, people hate on epic but then complain that Gabe has yachts but still tell people to use steam over epic that doesn't make any sense and is the opposite of consistent.

Odd then that most of them that hate on epic still recommend to use Steam instead.

Some say GOG, which is also owned by millionaires.

I'm failing to see the consistency.

That's fair but anyone can run it that way without it having root access, even on Windows.

I run it through Heroic and it doesn't have root access at all. In fact my entire gaming profile doesn't have root access to the rest of the machine which is recommended for anything gaming related even steam.

If you're talking about on Windows then you're already running Malware in the form of Windows OS, to be honest. But since you said root I'm assuming you mean on Linux.
