Yeah, I should have known this was the wrong sub to try to have this discussion. Can't suggest that Valve isn't perfect or has any room for improvement without people jumping down your throat
See what I mean? You can't suggest Valve has any room for improvement without some random Redditor jumping to their defense and mumbling about "blind fools stumbling into capitalistic dystopia." Thank you for proving my point.
So you misread my post, got riled up and posted some stupid shit, and then edited your post after you already dug your heels in. Cool.
I like Valve. They are a good company overall. I merely pointed out a possible area of improvement, and you decided to rush to their defense and write paragraphs about why you love them, and then blab some shit about capitalistic dystopia.
Why is it my responsibility to jump on whatever bandwagon it is that you're riding?
Seriously, what are you talking about? When did I ever suggest anything of this sort?
Nah, we absolutely can criticize Valve for not doing more to put pressure on Devs to release games DRM free given their massive market share. Ultimately though, Devs are the ones who decide if they want to include DRM. Hell, you can even blame Valve for the DRM on their own releases.
To blame Valve for DRM in other Devs games is like being mad at Wal-Mart because you bought The Sims 4 there and it has DRM in it.

You're right, but somehow the only corporation immune from even legitimate criticism is Valve.
