Why the fuck is it weird for a client to run inside a runtime environment with well-defined library versions, when that client has to ship that runtime environment anyways to ensure the games can actually run on a broad range of systems?
Oh, sure, it’s so much better if the client relies on system libraries instead. Yes please, I like incompatibilities and issues with debugging. So much better than loading a different set of libraries. Stupid Valve!











Do you even know what any of the words you’re using mean? It doesn’t matter whether the Steam client is running in the runtime, you still want the same containerization to run your games, because that’s how they make sure the games run everywhere.
You’re just angrily flinging shit around without understanding what any of this is about. Don’t you have anything better to do?
