  • Well I can only speak for myself, but I prefer games stores in that order:

    1. GOG, because DRM free and they don’t enforce game updates.
    2. Steam, because they are well integrated into the SteamDeck, they push Linux gaming, and Gabe seems to be an alright guy.
    3. Itch.io, because lots of indy games
    4. Epic Game store, good: free games, bad: Epic and Tim Sweeney.

    There are business decisions with all of them that I dislike.

    For the top dog PC game store, Valve could behave much much worse. Epic is still in the customer and game developer acquisition phase (and still behave like a d*ck with their exclusive deals), if the ever manage to push Valve aside, I believe they will be much worse.
