You are reading a tremendous amount of stuff into my posts which I never wrote down or even dreamed of.

This is understandable. GOG stands for "Good Old Games". I know they sell new games too now, but I think they decided to start doing that fairly recently, so it's no wonder they don't have many semi-old games yet.

I neither said nor implied anything of the kind. In fact it is obvious that the ideal digital retailer would have nothing to do with any developers or publishers, just like all the brick-and-mortar retailers ever. It is seriously FUCKED UP that Valve, Ubisoft and EA have their own stores now.

Communists are not welcome here. Just sayin'.
Cassowary wrote:and useless "social" features.
Steam's social features are amazing, and that's why I prefer to buy games on there whenever I can. You sound like the majority of players who don't like to play games with other people, and therefore misunderstand some of the best games available today (see all the losers playing PA or PS2 on their own and wondering what icy's going on about).
Cassowary wrote:Every developer and/or publisher should ultimately have their own digital retail service for their own games and little more
Gah I can't stand the retardation any more.
Cassowary wrote:this would allow the curation to be handled by the people who worked on the games
Why was the word "curation" never used to describe what EB Games and GameStop have been doing for decades? Because ten or twenty years ago fagots didn't know how to turn on a console or a computer, so they didn't play videogames.

Blah blah blah stupid. The "indies" are making a killing by having their abortions advertised in place of Far Cry 4 on Steam's frontpage, and you think they would GAIN by being relegated to ghettos? What are you, retarded?
Bleh.
(P.S. Don't try to rationalize your bullshit or backpedal because I will tell JC to ban you. If you don't have anything new to say that doesn't seem retarded, don't say anything.)
