Some big titles are now gone from steam do you think its effecting there sales and do you still buy them

Now big titles are gone from steam devolpers are creating there own platform that you have to play it on there service/store or launching it in a different one

2 Examples are
BO4 (Battle Net)
Fallout 76 (Windows 10 Store)
But there are many more

It's understandable as steam charges them a percentage to have there games on the steam store

I myself only use 2 platforms

Steam for 99%of my games and battle.net for overwatch that's it

I cant be bothered to install 4-5 different programs for different games I like to have all my games in one place that's just me

Anyway how do other people feel about this. I also hear fallout 76 is doing terrible and buggy as hell so glad it's not on steam, we already have enough bad games as it is

I know it's not gonna happen but I wish steam would do some quality control and remove games that have a negative review longer then 1-2 year if they change keep them ect

But makes sense as people do review bomb example GTA 5 when they took mods out

Anyway I'm done my little speach or rant of you want to call it that it's just my thoughts im just bored, havent been playig games that much lately don't have time and can't get into them or find something good atm.

Also sorry for any spelling mistakes typed it fast with my sausage fingers on my little phone

I only use Steam and Origin.

As for games with negative reviews, I don’t care if they’re on the store. There’s a market for everyone. If people want to buy something, it’s their money.

I don't buy any EA games at all ever, I stopped buying CoD after BO3 because they are just microtransactions trash. Something like Fallout 76 which is not on Steam I just buy on console instead as I don't want my games all spread around different launchers.

Fallout 4 has been on steam for years

And if you wanted to say Fallout 76,it's not a big title

Who cares about Fallout 76?
I fear for Wolfenstein: Young Blood, Doom Eternal and Rage 2.

I only fear for DOOM Eternal as I even lost interest in TES6 when I heard that they'll still use the same 20 years old engine...

I read that as “titties”.

I will hope that the low revenue publishers will begin to make strong products for Steam. Hopefully that they won’t begin to develop egomaniacal self publisher store.

My main concern is that you can't launch Battle.Net games as a steam shortcut. I honestly could care less if the games are spread across different storefronts, just give me the option of organizing them in one place.

Really? I tried playing the BO4 beta and Destiny 2 through steam and they gave me a message telling me to launch through battle.net

It's not as easy as other games but you can.
The real pain are the windows store games

Why? Those games aren't online game that requires a launcher.

They might as well be console exclusive because I have zero interest in games which are not on Steam.
Blizzard. Who are they? FIFA 19, that's football, right? Battlefield? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The Sims? Oh yeah, 3 is great! Wait, what, there's a Sims 4?
