Steam getting better isn't linked to anyone becoming a billionaire. That sentiment sounds like people can't stop looking for things to blame Valve for.
Is it too difficult to accept that every single company failed in competing with Steam? I'd say they didn't even try their best (especially Epic). Must've assumed that just serving a website with a web app is all they needed to get as rich as Gabe.
Seems it's fixed now?
It actually seems more like a windows 10 compatibility dilemma for developers. You can support older systems but it would require some effort. The problem is not the absence of some specific certificates, but the absence of newer ciphers altogether.
This does give security but also removes backwards compatibility with some clients that might be important for some websites.
Hard disagree on denuvo. If it's no problem for you then you must have tons of experience in re. Which puts you into some 1%-ish group. Depends on the type of mods you do of course.
You can. Google steamless.
Steam DRM is nothing like stuff people should be aware of. Ask any modder for confirmation.
Well did it help Epic when they added achievements? Guess not much. Either they never marketed this feature enough or most spending users never cared about achievements on Epic.
If you mean just the percentage of users I might agree. But those people don't really correlate with the users who provide most of the profit of the platform.
My profile is also not public but it's visible to friends. Also I can make it public when I want.
There are also achievement statistics.
I see. Still, I can see that for many people achievements with no value are no better than their absence. Platform provides value, and for now only steam provides a lot of it with almost each purchase.
Are you serious? Obviously people don't care about achievements on a platform that has almost no community-related functionality.
There are chances the outcome would be different if hamas released hostages, or didn't attack Israel on October 7th. Those things were not smart. It didn't serve any good purpose. A smarter thing would have been to prepare for such an attack from Israel by building defenses to protect civilians at the very least.
