Someone should tell Steam that Capitalism is calling and it does not favor monopolies. Games have been perforce exclusive on steam for a long time because that's often the only place developers could release. They have no room to complain imo.

I'm not talking about when the product are on a service like Steam. In am saying that developers dont have to be use a service to sell their game. They can use their own site or their own outlet like an Escape from Tarkov or Star Citizen.

For most, that doesn't work well. "No Steam no buy," predates EGS and many locked in users simply don't buy games outside Steam. Some have certainly found success this way, but smaller newer studios, especially those with new IP, will find the mindset near impossible to escape.

Starting over about which part exactly? Game save? We can import it. Success? We can grab them too. Friends, voice and multiplayer? Maybe, but that are services that are make available from Steam.

I remember a game that was a mess to do multiplayer with DRMFREE version but it just worked on Steam. And to be honnest, friends/voice feature is surely more used from Discord / Teamspeak / Mumble than Steam same if it can help sometimes.
