How did Valve do it?

Because 99% of PC gamers already have steam, so the developers aren't asking you to go download some completely new, feature incomplete, bug-ridden, potentially spyware launcher to play their game. They could have easily gone the route of epic store exclusive dlc costumes or some shit like gamestop or best buy used to do. People would have complained but not nearly as much because everyone still gets to easily play the game.

because there is no bribing from steam and you can sell on both steam and other places at the same time if you want

are you retarded? You clearly don't even know what an exclusivity deal is if you have to ask that.

devs and publishers flock to them. haven't you thought about that? and WHY do you think they willingly go to steam? ask yourself these questions

What did I miss?

What does this reference anyways? (I don't play PC, but I have friends who do and let me play on their Steam from time to time.)

Steam isn't paying or bribing anyone to release their game ONLY on steam. If a game is on steam, it can also be on any other marketplace the same day.
Epic is paying developers to only release the game on epic.
If you can't see the difference, you're either a gook, troll, or retarded.

Epic luancher is a dumpster fire of a software, ironically Valve literally didn't need to do anything

This. It sounds good for devs but hell on Epic.
You don't need to study in business school to know that this shit's terrible overall. Epic may get short term "good boy" points but really, they lose money this way especially since I don't believe indie games always rake in a lot of dough to please the investors.

I've never pirated so much before since epic came out. I'm honestly sick of it, I hate having to putts around with shit. but the glitchy launcher isn't worth it.

And Epic doesn't give a shit because Tencent (and by definition China's gov) is behind it.

Now that's just blatantly false.

Proof that Epic is just artificially creating demand and isn't interested in quality.

Because Epic literaly gave money so that other companies would not publish their games on other platform. If you publish using steam, nothing forbids you from also publishing on gog or by yourself.

you fucking know how pathetic it is we now assume anything anti steam is now epic favoring
which is what you're doing

I'll pirate terabytes of games if I have to, through viruses and HDD reformats before I fucking create multiple accounts just to play a video game or two.

metro exodus

yeah? You honestly think Valve cares about making games anymore? It's all about greed.
12 years ago, hats and crates were a fun idea, a fun random system like opening a card pack.
That was an idea born out of love not greed.

However, monetizing sprays, making more and more limited edition crates, making shitty weapon skins, and monetizing everything about the game, that's greed.

Valve has turned a new page into greed, "how can we make as much money as possible in the smallest amount of time". Valve 10 years ago would NEVER have touched Battle Royales, or Card Games, or tried to copy a shitty mod as they would literally just hire the mod developers.
The culture at valve has changed, and thus so has valve. Gabe even recently joked that he could shut down steam and keep only TF2, Dota 2, and CS:GO and he'd still be a millionare and his company would sail for decades to come.
As valve changes, we're looking at changes in how they make and value making games, god help us when Gabe kicks the bucket.

Thats all they had to do. Epic's business model is unsustainable, propped up by the massive profits from fortnite's massive popularity. But when things explode in popularity they collapse just as fast.

Steam need to be stopped, and only epic can do that.

>Valve has turned a new page into greed
I disagree with your comment. They are lazy, not greedy. Selling hats, weapon skins and more allows more content for that game to be created and in Dota 2's case, helps funds tournaments and prizes. Valve is more lazy than they are greedy. They "could" pay for steam exclusives, they "could" pay wall games, but they don't. Things EA and Ubisoft do. Valve is a lesser evil that occupies the Sloth ring of Hell.

Those both died because I have to go to Target for my physical copy, wait for the teenage boy to unlock my game, pay for it, have him hand me it while trying to shill me whatever "new vidya deals" there are, and walk away

Why would I do that when I can literally just buy games outright on steam?

>Valve is lazy not greedy
Kek, they literally kicked the best dota 2 char designer because he asked for a rise. Valve is greedy as fuck, and stupid at the same time due to their company structure. They are not lazy, they are simply unable to do anything

Thus begins the rise of Uplay!

But that does not explain why steam killed zyzz

No, please.

Why? We need as many stores as we can get to compete with each other. If you want one mega store fuck off to consoles, faggot

nothing happened, steam is just loosing more and more, nice cope :)

What does the consumer gain from this

(You)

>We need as many stores as we can get to compete with each other
If a customer has to go around to a dozen stores just to find out where each deal is, and then go around them all again for each purchase, eventually they're going to get sick of wasting their time and probably go back to shopping at just one location. Convenience is just as much a concern to consumers as prices.

The strategy is obvious, buy exclusives until they have a big enough user-base that they don't need to. Unless every exclusive they buy is a flop AND fortnite does a quick fade to irrelevancy AND people stop developing games for Unreal engine they will be just fine.

Thankfully this is the internet and you can find sites that list the best prices from multiple storefronts.

No idea on the attackers motive, but bystanders simply don't want to involve themselves into the matter because of fucked up laws about "being responsible" for the well being of a victim.

There are tons of cases where people get hurt and then demand their helper to pay for expensive hospital or even sue if the help somehow injures them further or simply hurts them.

No Good Samaritan laws to protect the bystanders.

Well, there's no mystery to that.
Garfield has only ha one success, ever, in his life.
And they decided to try to cash in on the ASSFAGGOTS trend by making a retarded card-game that required a full-price buy-in and card pack purchases ontop of that.

Hats were astroturfed into the welcome introduction of a store.
Which, was then furthered by the crates.

They were nothing but greed from the beginning. They were just smart about it.

The best move Valve could (and did) pull off is just ignore Epic. They're nowhere near the same fucking league. Epic, as it is, is a complete non-player.

If those are the kinds of laws communism produces, I sure as hell don't want that shit system anywhere near me.

This. Europe was a small, shitty continent with relatively little in the way of natural resources. What we call basic human compassion was born out of necessity in Europe as a basic survival instinct.

The rest of the world pretty much never had that kind of problem, so natural selection never bred compassion into the races native to other areas.

With China it goes a bit further. Millennia of brutal conquest and civil wars not only failed to breed compassion true, it actually bred out any form of empathy whatsoever.

also, it's not even like Steam wasn't forcefully shoved down on people's throat when it came out. The idea that you were forced to use a shitty launcher, wait for it's updates whenever you wanted to play some single player games was a fucking cancerous idea that people just learned to accept with time

This bit them in the ass and they are now paying for it.

Why does China have cameras fucking everywhere?

The main opponent of a PC store is not the other PC stores, its the piracy.
If you don't offer better perceived value than the pirate copy, you will get wrecked by the pirates.
Steam managed to pull it off by offering several things that increase the value of the original copy, such as downloading it a LOT faster, being able to show off your friends the games you got, easy online setupping, the part where it have a bunch of old games that you can just get quickly instead of having to fight off seedless torrents..
Epic is just not much better than torrent website because it only offer titles that are easy to get pirate and don't enhance the original in any way.
It's the same reason why shit like online logging and denuvo hurts the sales, the pirate title end being better.

it's fucking ridiculous how you tards come up with the idea how it's ""evil"" to do this shit, because it isn't a "fair" competition to poor Valve, even though all it would take for Valve to avoid all this is to not be greedy fucks and lower their taxes

GOG is exactly what every game store should do

they make 5% of all profits on any game that uses UE across every platform.

Actually attempting to engage with publishers so they actually have games to sell. Without Capcom Steam wouldnt have shit on it this year and they have basically 0 notable releases since March

The correct decision. Valve has been around long enough to know doing things is only going to divide the fanbase and enable a "look both are equally terrible" narrative to make the rounds. They just had to do what they do best, sit on their asses and do nothing, and they were guaranteed the win.

Well, the bike does collide with the lorry's fuel tank (the big box underneath the carriage) but t doesn't really look like that's what ignites, there seems to be a single frame where the momentum of the lorry causes sparks as it drags the bike and then there's an ignition in or around the wheel arch itself. If I had to bet, I'd say bike caused an oil/fuel leak from either vehicle in the engine compartment and the sparks caused it to go up spectacularly, rather than from the fuel tank itself (which, while it IS China, is supposed to be designed to withstand impact)

Those numbers are very low in comparison, it is ten times worse in china

Nice one EGS. Why bother making your store better when the devs will figure out solutions on their own!

Most of the Steam alternatives are missing features and feel more bland.
Plus Epic Store has already had numerous scandals of their software spying on people and higher than normal stupid terms of service that allows them to own you and your machine if you agree to it.
Steam isn't flawless, but I've yet to see anything that can honestly compete. GOG is a good attempt in that there is no DRM on their games and you don't *need* their launcher. But Origin, UPlay, Epic Store, Blizzard Launcher, are all shit.

That depends on how much money they're spending on these exclusives and how many people are actually going to their platform to play them, and how many people will stick around to buy games that aren't exclusive.

EA, ubisoft, and company are able to have their own storefronts because they are publishing the games on their stores and have really good data on their sales. Epic is taking a much bigger gamble by inviting third party studios onto their platform that they have very little financial info on.

I don't pull it, because knowing Chinese engineering, the track will split apart and have the train fly at me and the cop.

Valve paved the way for for forced DRM on PC. You're obviously too young to actually remember what it was like when you didn't need to go through a company to play a fucking game. You bought it and it was yours, and that is not the case anymore because of Valve. Defending them is despicable.

>you are now aware that the reason china bugmen kill the people they run over is because if they do they don't have to pay for the medbills or funeral but if the person they run over lives they have to pay for med bills and funeral costs if they die

He's not wrong. Valve doesn't give you DRM free shit. You're basically licensing from them.

Wither or not it's a huge problem is your opinion, but he's not wrong on that.

>Valve doesn't give you DRM free shit.
Loads of games can be run directly from the .exe. Just because it's on Steam doesn't mean it implements Steamworks.

A fucking code that you had to input on install sometimes. It's still your fucking product retard.

Yes, however electricity always takes the easiest route possible to ground itself. For example, I had a power head motor short out in my saltwater aquarium once. It was left plugged in over the weekend but the fish were fine.

I'd say the split is about 80% Steamworks 20% "DRM-free." It's a shit-shoot and since Steam doesn't advertise it, you won't know until you've bought it if it's possible to do that or not. So I don't fault folks for assuming everything is Steamworks.

>China can break apart the US financially at any given time.
Just do it already then. What are you waiting for?
It's not like your economy is built on a house of cards just like ours right?

I can't tell since we don't see high enough, but it actually looks like someone on the far left side looses his footing and falls into the live rail on some kind of train/subway thing. Since he's connected to the scaffolding he just shocks the fuck out of his friends and I'm like 99% sure they're fuckin ded.

China's entire economy relies on selling the US shit. Do they not teach basic economics in China or is that illegal to maintain the paper tiger?

They could have panicked.

Ping your country exists solely as a sweatshop for Western civilization. I imagine you'd have an identity crisis if you did some light reading on the subject.

mad chink is mad

>because they have no real source of funds outside their store.
which unlike epic are actualy reliable.
Valve spends a lot of money on shit they don't get anything back from such as their vr research and hardware projects, and it doesn't make a dent in their profits.

>Hey U.S. repay your debts to us now
>"No"

what happens next? In the case that all trade shuts off between the U.S. and China, the U.S. will take a hit but be in a far better spot than China.

what in the fuck is this

We don't need you, we make a lot of money off you, but that's it and China have a lot of other trading partners. Trump's entire campaign is destroying any shred of previously established alliance with China, you'll get crushed in the next big recession because you are completely broken financially and militarily. Gotta thank uncle Zion for that.

then why are we talking about China?

literal spyware in action.

its everything the program touches in active memory, repacks it, and uploads it to their servers.

kek

Are you really a butthurt chink or are you just LARPing lol, you got schooled on basic economics and now you're lashing out. Try Youtube if you're allowed to watch that in your country, there are plenty of great basic economics courses there.

get rid of nogs and 90% of that disappears

Yes libtard, you must really know about economics.

t. never spent time around hood monkeys or mainland chinkbots

valve had a good idea based on an original concept at the time, but epic tried to streamline it and make it as efficient as possible, removing the parts that made the original good in the process

Fucking hell.
Every clicks and scrolls? No wonder normalfags with shit pcs complained about EGS a lot.

>resorting to random ad hominems because you got BTFO so hard
As proven by the posts explaining the basic concept of debt to you, I do in fact know more about economics than you.

Ok libtard.

yep

literal chinky spyware that is so piss poorly coded it is even noticable by less than tech savvy retards that notice its memory leaks and uploads.

if a program requests firewall exemptions, question it.

You know your recommended list and front page is based on what you own and view, right?

What was the cut consoles take for games on their platforms?

Unless you can find someone who buys as much cheap shit and labor as the US, your country is our complete bitch (and the rest of the Western countries) for the foreseeable future. Too bad Chang, your ancestors are probably disappointed in the pseudo-Commie shithole your land has become. Maybe you can muster another Yellow Turban Rebellion.

Pure water no. As for large quantities of water I think it gives many paths for electricity to take elsewhere so as long as you're a fair distance away you are still sort of fine. Lightning regularly strikes the ocean but you don't see the entire sea just die from it.

Because this board is filled with Valve drones.

Also China and Taiwan.
China is trying to be a big bad asshole just because they can basically. Or the president specifically I guess, think he recently made himself dictator for life or some shit.

>i don't know what the words exclusive and deal mean.

Enjoy your intestinal parasites lol

I feel a bit bad for Chinamen desu, imagine being raised there and learning that your entire country exists solely to manufacture cheap shit for better countries. The lashing out and impotent rage is understandable.

>EXCLUSIVE TO STEAM GOOD

What program are they using to sniff on Epic's shit?

This but unironically

Makes sense, since the Store page is basically free ad space.

Didn't Zimbawe's president try that? It seems like one big stack of cards after a while.

Name one non valve game that was paid to be exclusively on steam.

I suppose that also makes sense since Steam actually works properly without apparently being Chinese spyware. I suppose some other launchers are alright too sort of. Though EA's was retarded for a while as I recall, deleted games from your library if you hadn't played them in a while and I think limited the amount of times you could download them.

>steamdrone fantasy world

What should be mentioned more is that for a lot of the devs, particularly the indie ones, it's a deal with the devil: either take the Epic money and all the controversy it will cause, or face the serious risk of bankruptcy. I don't think it's just greed or idiocy as many people seem to believe.
Now, you might think that it's preferable to go under than sign a deal with what you perceive (with some justification) to be the devil. But you've never spent years building up a business, trying to get its name established in a harsh industry. It's much more complicated in the real world, as opposed to Yea Forums.

just take a few devs away from Fortnite to make a functioning store comparable to Steam and offer better prices due to the advertised better revenue share. That's all they had to do. I'm glad Tim is in charge of this, he seems woefully incompetent for this sort of thing. Imagine if someone competent was in charge. I don't care because I pirate, but it would actually be newsworthy and maybe Gabe would get off his fat ass to improve shit.

This comic writer is DUMB.

Well with China the country is large enough for him to have the resources to do it without caring too much I think. Also they do have other issues that are kind of pressing like the massive fucking pollution, poisonous artificial ingredients, and just general corruption and shit all around.

Mugabe got ousted by a military coup and had to flee to Switzerland. Leave it to a nigger to turn what was called "the bread basket of Africa" into the absolute worst country in it.

0.001 rusty metal was added to your steam wallet

Steam was one of the most hated things in the 2000's. It only became popular in the 2010's. Majority of you guys defending steam weren't even old enough to use it when it came out. There's no difference between steam or origin or egs. Gog is the only good one

Why does Yea Forums have so many snuff threads? I don't see these webms in any of the other boards I visit.

Because there is constant EGS shill threads. Hirogook gets paid to keep them up.

I used to think that sinofuturism was based, but then I got a freelance job teaching some of them English. They really are bottom of the barrel. The average amerifat has more soul than their top citizens.

I keep seeing ads for English teachers in China but when you ask them about how payment works and what the pay is, they get quiet and never reply.

As I recall they're only a few steps away from technically being a developing nation.

>no difference between them

Unfortunately those steps are up an escalator.

Who fucking cares about "indie" games though. They always fuck up already better games.

you haven’t been to /gif/, Yea Forums, /pol/trash/bant/ or /r/, have you?

Keep in mind that there are actual paid egs shils in Yea Forums. ignore them.
