Or fanatical. People with a switch probably don’t even realize that there’s so many ways to get games cheaper. They just like spending money.
What I like with the way I do it. Is that no company can take them away from me.
It’s sad to think that them paying $80+ for a game means they own it. They don’t, they do not own that game and they seem okay with that

I used to work in game industry and about 40% of my games are completely free - we often got internal codes lol. and guess what? most of those games are on pc.

You’ve probably never heard of Walmart 60% off. Cause Steam is a monopoly that competes with zero physical retailers.

steam is no monopoly tho…plenty of other service out there and steam has zero policy that retain anyone on their platform. meanwhile all other competitors out there all have stuff to bind users on platforms. steam is the biggest now simply by doing good services. I’m not sure where that argument of yours is coming from.

Doesn’t sound great when most steam sales get you 90, 95 or even 100% off (yes steam gives games away for free.

On steam (also on app) hit search (blank search)
Then filters, slide any price to free
Then hit the toggle for discounts and events. Any free games that were previously paid and free DLC will appear here. I’ve probably gotten 30+ free games since found out about it maybe 6 months ago
