    They haven’t changed much? They have like literally a million more games available on their store now.

      The basic principle is the same: a DRM-enabled online store, and more often than not the only source for certain games, a monopoly.

        And with those resources they decided to make a huge long term investment in making PC gaming on windows optional, then even the worse experience. Don’t see that loser Tim sweeny doing anything of that value… It’s not exactly a monopoly either… You can install any other available store on your pc, unlike consoles. More competition would be great but steams market share was earned in an environment that wasn’t a walled garden.
