Dusk: Unpopular opinion: I'd rather pay Valve 30% and put up with their de facto monopoly than help Epic work towards their own (very obviously desired) monopoly

The fact that there are tons of games only available on steam should tell you it's a monopoly.

It's fucking shocking to me that so many people here actually believe that Valve isn't a monopoly. You must have your head way up your ass.

How many games are actually steam exclusive on PC though, not counting 50 cent shovelware crap? A good chunk of the best selling PC games ever (minecraft for example) are not even available on steam.

I just went through the top 10 on steam and other than counter strike, which is literally made by valve, all of them are available elsewhere.
