Man you know someone’s doing an amazing job when the billionaires are upset and calling for that person to be fired.

Step one tell everyone that your not going to be a push over with Israel.

They were illegal till 1982 (thanks to FDR) then like a lot of shit Regan ruined it and said they were exempt.

As always fuck you Reagan

Is that shit all over his nose in this pic?

Finally some news outlet has the balls to call them liars!

Only took an uncountable number of lies.

Just like all religions promise the coming doom.

Right on!

Tired of propping up the red welfare states!

I thought the parting seam was a bit of shit leaking down his leg for a bit.wish it was seems pretty accurate

This one shows the steam deck in its info

Nothing wrong with a preemptive “don’t do it”

I don’t see taytays name

Hope so! He’s so two faced.

The worm probably wants a break from piloting for a bit.

Ms. Harris? Last time I checked shes married…

Michelle Obama please run!

I mean any non geriatric has a better chance. She’s not likeable, and gives seriously entitled Hilary vibs. Also I don’t feel like she accomplished anything as vo (that I know of). Just angry speeches…

Why not!

Please not Harris, she cannot win…

AOC

Michelle Obama

Kelly?

Please don’t cop out and default to Harris that’s 2016 all over again…

Oh for sure they are there for a profit. But as the best example in the industry let’s not unnecessarily attack them. Imagine how much more money they make if they did go public and how awful it would be for all of us.

Total fair always room for improvement, no ones perfect.

Appreciate the good discussion!

My reference to free market is only a means of saying customers choose steam because of its offerings not that they have too.

I agree it would be nice if they charged less. However do we know their full PNL/balance sheet? People just keep taking revenue/employees as if employees are the only overhead.

They provide the servers, and do have an rde cost for development for services we discussed like cloud saves, control support etc. if people have this much energy over it attack pharmaceutical for there insane mark ups that would drive way more positive social change. But the people driving are mostly trying to make more money by cutting there publishing expenses through steam. I’m sure psn and Xbox also take 25 to 30percent cuts.

They also championed low publishing costs of only 100 dollars to list a game. I don’t know enough to speak to their update charges though. Hell psn been known to charge 25k for visibility in top of their 30% cut and there are no other market options Reference

Everyone focuses here cause developers and publishers want more of this cut and to me seem to try to push steam into regulator cross hairs as a way to force the changes they have failed to negotiate.

I would also point out brick and mortar sellers also take 15 to 20% cut and then also charge for storage, disposal, fulfillment, return on and on. Amazon does the same. It’s the nature of a market place. Reference

Overall it doesn’t make sense to me as a community that we attack our best example of what a game market place should be.
