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 just saw on a developper page something really simple. His game is on Steam and HB but he justs says if you want give me more money go to HB. Pretty simple, and globally true, I think it's possible to give th minimum to HB going in advance settings.

Not how it works. Game is on Steam period. HB sells a Steam key. Steam monopolizes game distribution. Legit retailers like GOG can barely get their foot (tip of the toe) in the market. This is why I fell out of my chair laughing at Steam using the word "unfair" for Metro Exodus.

And if you consider that to be problematic, it might be a good idea to start supporting Linux as Windows has quite the market share among PC gamers. Alternatively, you could support ReactOS, but that's not gotten very far along.

You are making a legal argument with complete disregard to the applicable law, and you've ignored my every attempt to correct your assumption. I do not actually care about your opinion as to what you think a monopoly is. I'm sorry, but you are wrong. Disengaging.

Perhaps make a better application and stop using toxic practices. In the last months I bought 50% of my games on GOG. Because they add something more (drm less). They made me subscribe with free old games and not buying exclusivity. You add nothing of value for the consumer.

Their platform wasn't perfect in the beginning but they improved it enough that now I am confortable to have a part of my game library there.
