Poll: Educational debate about Steam

[Continuity]

I like buying games from Steam when they have sales on, and I like the Steam overlay that allows me to chat with friends while I'm playing games. That being said, I don't like buying retail games and being forced to play them through Steam. DRM is still DRM regardless of all the shiny bells and whistles that come with it.

And for why I hate Steam, unless there's a sale on, it's rarely. fucking. cheaper. It is beyond ridiculous when I can buy discs, with cases and manuals, for cheaper than I can get a goddamn digital download.

Spoiler

Fuck you Steam, I bought that for $49 in a retail store.

its true, it is rarely cheaper except when there is a sale on. Simple solution: wait for a sale then fill you boots. its what I do.

It's pretty simple. Valve games on Steam are great, because they control everything so they make sure it works. Non-Valve games suck, because the extent of Steam support is quoting the part of the EULA that says there are no refunds and they're not responsible for anything not working. Screw that!
