Good thing Sony doesn't even have a launcher. But hey, we're still all mad. Because internet.
Ok, cool.
Let's revisit this when Rockstar gets universal adoration for GTA6, which will absolutely require a Rockstar account & launcher.
So that's who that tool is that's trying to convince me I need to hate another game every time I rot my brain on TikTok.
I don't know how many times I've told that app I'm not interested in how much he hates Star Wars Outlaws.
"But I must defend everything Daddy GabeN does!" ~ half of internet commenters, apparently
EDIT: lol
This is an issue because of Steam's 30% cut.
Other retailers take a smaller cut. But because Steam mandates that the Steam storefront always gets the lowest price, publishers can't take advantage of that lower cut to offer lower prices. They can only lower the price to something that doesn't torpedo them with a 30% cut on Steam.
The person I was arguing with was saying that "infrastructure is anything which is something anyone can do". I gave an example of something that anyone can do which isn't infrastructure.
It's absolutely a direct refuation
a counter-example which disproves their original statement. It's not a "straw man", as much as you get mad and scream that it is.
I know that shouting "straw man!" is the first step of trying to deflect from being wrong on the Internet... But if you're going to do it, at least know what a straw man is.
My argument is that "Infrastructure" != "anyone can do it".
Infrastructure is something that benefits and maintains the general public. Bitcoin benefits a handful of cryptobros, billionaires... and most importantly ransomware rings.

EDIT: Uh.... Exactly what part are we downvoting here? All I did was quote the lawsuit.
