Same, I know installing from other launchers on linux is possible using lutris, but since the steam experience is so smooth, I’ve never bothered to figure out how.
If a game isn’t sold on Steam, It isn’t going to sell well.
Because of the huge amount of Valve fanboys who only buy games if they are on Steam.
Games on other stores might as well not exist.
And more, if a game even dares to launch on a different store, it would garner unfavour of all those Valve fanboys and hurt their sales even if afterwards it does launch on Steam.
These kinds of comments are just silly. Explain how Valve has a monopoly.

I think that’s just called having a good product
They provide the best user experience and aren’t a publicly traded company so everyone uses them >:c

Nowadays pretty much every game is only available on Steam.
That’s easily provably not true. You can get pretty much every single game on epic or good old games exist
If you only check steam it sure feels like that. Try just looking at gog or epic and that feeling will go away.
Or on the game’s website.

It is a user enforced monopoly.
Fortnite, Apex Legends, Guild Wars 2 (which admittedly released on Steam later) and more all prove this claim false.
