    Neat.

    Meanwhile:

    Whatever the underlying reasons,

    customers basically just use one store.

    Which is what a monopoly is.

    • Customers choosing one option over the others isn’t a monopoly, it’s capitalism at work. There are other players, they’re just not as good. Not Valve’s fault they can’t get their shit together.

        Customers having one worthwhile option is in fact a monopoly.

      That is not what a monopoly is. A monopoly is characterized by a lack of choice. People have choice. There is only one good choice, though, and people have chosen it over other stupid garbage that doesn’t even try. Maybe you’d see that if you took Tim Sweeny’s dick out yo mouth for 5 seconds.

        This topic invites the weirdest goddamn replies.

        Maybe you’d see that if you took Tim Sweeny’s dick out yo mouth for 5 seconds.

        It is a failure of moderation that any appropriate response to this baseless insult are equally forbidden.

        Suffice it to say: I already told you, none of this is a defense of Epic.
