      I just dont get the point you are making with that, its not a steam's mission to cross-platform every game on earth and it still doesnt justify why your store lacks everything steam have

      It will make more sense by this time next year. The old model of stores and consoles is that they provide a big bundle of services but they’re all locked down to only work within their ecosystem. The new model is interoperability of games across stores and platforms.

      Dauntless is an early third-party example. Yes, it’s exclusive to Epic Games store on PC, but your progress and friends work across all platforms. Other games of this sort will be non-Epic-exclusive, and will provide features like friends and cloud saves that work everywhere.

      Valve locking down features like friends so they only work through Steam is the primary reason past independent PC stores failed to gain major traction. The same multiplayer game was inferior on other stores because of the feature lockdown.

      "The statement implies Activision made the call to keep PC players who bought the game from different storefronts separate." But Valve bad. Uh huh.

      Yet, after that moment, Activision never released another Call of Duty game on Steam.

      Ubisoft went to the effort of creating their own account and friends system so that players can connect regardless of store.

          And can sell their own game so they get 100% revenue, but they let customer to have choice to buy from Steam Like @CDPROJEKTRED got Cyberpunk on GOG and Steam and EGS, so players can choose.

          Well, but its their 1st party games, they didnt have to care, they could go exclusively uplay but they didnt. They still let people pick steam, even if it requires an additional launcher but the option is there. Did you gave the gaming community any choice with your exclusives?
