From the opinion piece:

Last year, I pointed out how many big publishers came crawlin' back to Steam after trying their own things: EA, Activision, Microsoft. This year, for the first time ever, two Blizzard games released on Steam: Overwatch and Diablo 4.

Now Epic games are next, hopefully.

I hope epic game store burns in hell, personally.

Blizzard had a legit decent platform for a while there. Real fall from grace.

Let's start a pool to predict how many years/months until Steam enshitifies. It WILL happen. It's just a matter of when.

Hopefully not soon, but probably once Gabe is gone if i had to guess.

If steam goes public, might as well start packing the bug out bag because shit is going to go south real quick.
