Valve also doesn't go around asking companies to add their games to steam. If you want a game on steam you need to go ask the developer to bring it to steam.
And NO TO EXCLUSIVES!!! Exclusives on ANY store or platform is a BAD idea. Epic games has its own issues, they keep buying exclusive and keep digging their hole deeper. They lost nearly half a billion dollars in 2019. They plan on doing more exclusives, which is going to cost them more money, which is going to dig that hole deeper.
How about once epic has a shopping cart on their store, then we can talk about how much of a threat they are to Valve whos profit keeps going up and up year after year.
While yes there are games that are "exclusive" to Steam, they were not bought by Valve and were/are free to go on any other platform they want from day 1. Their developers were not told by Valve that they had to stick to steam for any length of time.
So I don't count them as exclusives the same way as epic has exclusive.
Valve has already tried the movie/shows thing on Steam and it failed as most of us saw that was going to happen, but at least they tried. shows/movies about games are still allowed and can be found on Steam but tv shows/movies are not and more than likely will not come back to Steam, if you want to watch shows/movies online there are dedicated services that deal with that.
If you want to see a particular video game ported or even brought to Steam you'll need to contact the IP holder of that title and ask them to bring it to Steam as those at Valve do not go search out for titles to add to Steam.
And exclusives are the worst thing anyone can do on a platform. Epic is pretty much killing themselves by doing it and they are keeping at it as it's proven to not bring them in any money from it, does not keep people on the platform to buy more games, and shows that "most people" wait out the time exclusivity deal and buy it on the platform they actually want it on *cough Steam*. You can say what you want about Steam with its problems, out-of-touch updates that hardly anyone wants, or even changes that they don't ask the community about before randomly adding them in, etc. It's still hands-down the best store and platform on PC for publishers, developers, and consumers with many different features for all to utilize.
Steam has no exclusives, except for Valve games themselves.
Exclusivity matters if its bought or not. Epic buys and forces the exclusivity, Valve does not, GOG does not. It might still be called exclusives, but they are not the same. It is a huge difference in my books when you go exclusive because you were paid to do it, vs if you just choose to not go on other platforms/stores.
There is a big difference in defining the difference between a game being exclusive because the developers choose to only sell it on a single platform versus a site not allowing it to be sold anywhere else but their store.
I mean its the difference between you visiting someone in jail and you being locked up in jail. I mean in both instances your "in jail" but the context matters.
So when did the developer not have a choice to enter into that arrangement? I mean you don't like Epic offering the deal, and you don't like the developer choosing the deal. But trying to twist the situation that there's a difference if the "developer chooses", when they did choose, doesn't strike me as genuine. Some choices don't count as choices? Or the choices run so contrary to your personal values you feel the need to qualify them?
I get that people don't like waiting. Or don't like the inconvenience. and they don't have to like business being done that way. But the developers still choose. Epic isn't making them do anything. Both parties have to uphold their end of the agreement. There's noting interesting or special about that.
Never once said that the developer didn't have a choice, which is another reason why its important to differentiate the two. A developer agreeing to engage in a practice designed to restrict access to games is something i'd want to know versus a developer that just likes Steam and see's no need to release on another platform.
Because of money. Are you going to pay for Valve to do that? If so, why? Its exactly what you already have with Hulu but more expensive. Hulu will expect Valve to pay them for that privilege.
You can use Hulu in any browser already I think or maybe you have to use theirs, I have no idea I could not even use Hulu as it wasn't available in Canada, though it does look like at least some of it is coming to Canada... still not even close to being worth it in my books.
I personally dislike Steaming sites cause all the shows I like are spread out everywhere and to get them all would cost more than cable, some of them would only be for 1 show, which is certainly not worth it.
So ya if you want to pay more for less functionality, go and ask Hulu to bring it to Steam, Valve won't go and ask them to bring it. Or you can pay less and have more freedom with it by keeping it out of Steam.
