Sure there Tim.
Yeah all that open source and open hardware options I have are really holding things back.
Fuck off you tool.
Ohh, so it’s NOT all the paid exclusives that held gaming back? Fuck off Tim.
I’d rather never play a game again than use the Epic client even once, so I’m not sure you are correct there, Timmy.
Projecting are we?
Sour grapes at the people rejecting the ai?
Oh yes, let’s all listen to the man that said if a game is to be successful it must launch on their competitors platform, Steam.
The only thing, between the two (Valve and Epic), that has held gaming back, were those stupid Epic exclusives. Fuck them.
Valve created a great online store front, they have also made sure other storefronts can’t rise through monopolistic practices.
Tim is full of shit.
The client is basically irrelevant in this day and age. Anyone could build one better than Steam and it wouldn’t even be hard.
Lol. So do it Timmy.
From the people that took two years to implement a shopping cart. The same people that are so incompetent they had to resort to vibe coding their Linux client.
Not just the Linux client, but the new Windows one too and in their own words “Coding is hard so we vibe coded” (literally word for word).
AnYONe COUld Do iT
His company released the very best client AI tokens could buy. (Its not great.)
It started faster than steams new rt3 client for -1 days.
Wow is this an actual quote? This guy is hella toxic.
and it wouldn’t even be hard.
Then who said this, Timmy? The LLM you used to do your press releases?
Programming is hard. So, instead of doing that, we vibe coded a new Epic Games Launcher
Ah, so true. I’ll just fire up the epic store on my pc and play games with minimal effort.
I run arch btw.
Every accusation is a confession with guys like him.
Waaa, I wanna be Valve! 😭🍼
He just wants the customer base of Valve and then use the “monopoly” to generate lots and lots of shareholder value. It would be an Epic shitshow.
It’s always been an Epic shitshow, just like this dehydrated shart.
“That’s supposed to be my job!”
Valve has a good reputation amongst gamers and Epic has a bad reputation amongst gamers. Why is that, Tim?
Private companies vs public company one you are the customer the other one the shareholders/market are the customer you are the product
Hate to break it to ya, but we’re products in the eyes of both.
Yeah, by not releasing HL3. Bastards!
The client is basically irrelevant in this day and age. Anyone could build one better than Steam and it wouldn’t even be hard. I only bring it up because it’s what everyone talks about when defending Steam. Like it’s still 2024 and these things are hard. Steam’s only remaining value is its network.
No sir. Trust. Steam has earned trust from their customers. THAT is what the 30% cut pays for. Trust that we wont get scammed. Trust that it “just works”. Trust that the service provider keeps our interests in mind when making decisions, not just the shareholders. Trust that Valve is in it for the long haul and our library purchases won’t just poof on us. That doesn’t mean there isn’t risk, but there is trust. I can’t say the same for Epic.
I mean, Timmy’s got our trust, let’s be fair.
The entirety of the world’s video gaming population trusts him to continue being a weeping zit every single day of his useless life. ☝🏼
lol
Rofl even
Jesus, is Sweeney undergoing some form of AI psychosis? Or is he just generally unhinged?
Just narcissistic personality disorder smashing itself face first into reality.
Yes.
Why not both?
