      Nah, he’s another rich guy. I don’t play video games anymore, don’t really care. Fuck gaben. But also rich guy continues to pursue his boat hobby just doesn’t feel like news, and definitely not news that it’s productive to be upset about. What do I get out of being angry at Gabe for buying another boat? Nothing, and being angry about seems to be making my life worse not better.

      I hate Elon, Trump and Bezos for reasons other than their expensive hobbies tbf. The company Gabe runs may have what is essentially a monopoly, but it doesn’t engage in monopolistic practices and it gives a lot back to the community, especially if you’re a Linux gamer.

      EGS just sucks and Sweeney himself said he’s not interested in improving it, except by paying for exclusives. Which is funny, because Epic Games used to be pretty great for the gaming industry - with their grants and stuff. GOG is cool, but often publishers don’t want to sell their newer games without DRM. Steam is just the de facto best experience for buying games.
