My primary complaint with Steam is the quality of the games.
I’ve had a Steam account now for… let’s see here… 19 years:
Being primarily a console gamer, I rarely used it until I bought a Steam Deck. Then I went looking for Steam exclusive games I couldn’t otherwise play on my Xbox Series X, PS5, Nintendo Switch…
What I found was a lot of garbage porn games, and a lot of garbage anime games, and a lot of garbage anime porn games.
It’s super difficult finding something worth while to play. So it’s not a surprise to me to see that the #1 game is eight years old:
You’re essentially complaining that of the 50k+ games on Steam, you can’t find a game you like, and you prefer being handheld and told what you like by console companies?
This is… a really weird argument. “Too much freedom, restrict me harder daddy Nintendo.”

I’m looking for Steam exclusive games that I either can’t or haven’t already played on other hardware. Not an easy task.
Why would a consumer value exclusivity on an open platform? Is this a tribalism thing? In vs. out group?
