Can we stop pretending steam is literally Satan when their competition is some of the worst companies to ever exist?

    I'm not pretending that the epic cunt store from Tim Sweeney is better by any metric, but let's remember there are problems with Steam, it playing a role in the introduction of gambling into videogames. CSGO, TF2, without the steam integration, it would not have worked. And furthermore, Steam is proprietary and works as digital restrictions management. Without Steam running in the background, your game won't start. Yes, there's offline mode, but one day it could be taken away from you and there's nothing you could do against that. I say this with my large steam library and it worries me.
