Because Epic Games is really hoping to turn people against steam any way they can other than actually improving their service or morals.

And how... is this supposed to help that?

[–] HauntedCupcake@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

By making it seem that Steam is raking in money and uh, money bad?

This is so silly. Do people think hosting thousands of games and having thousands of users is cheap?

[–] Daveyborn@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

tbf, it's likely significantly cheaper than the 30% margin. I still think it's silly though
