    Steam being a US-based company kinda put a damper on my willingness to shell out the moolah for games I might not even play …

      GOG is my go to. Still have a huge steam library from before but my future purchases are going there.

        TBH for me, between the sales and the Linux compatibility it’s still worth it even if I’m effectively renting the games.

      What about the time they tried to implement paid mods with Bethesda?

        They’ve tried, they’ve listened, they’ve not gone forward with the implementation, apologized and refunded and everyone else moved on.

        That’s not great, but it’s not ‘company thriving under a very literally fascist regime’-bad.
