I mean, if even Steam would have stopped 5 years ago with adding and innovating and just maintaining everything to work smoot, they still would be better than any other platform. Just sit and count money.

Look at epic, I happily claim every week the game they give away, but where is the motivation to even consider them over steam. They had all this time and money to just copy things steam did right or add new things themselves .

Almost nothing happens.

Gabe Newell says no-one in the industry thought Steam would work as a distribution platform—'I'm not talking about 1 or 2 people, I mean like 99%'

I like that even without real competition on the market, they keep on improving and innovating the platform.

It's a company that want's to make money but they way they do it, giving the customers the best most experience possible, wishes me for other companies would take notice of. And i don't only distribution platforms.

I had to go to the company doctor years ago, it was mandatory when you just started working there.

One of the questions was how much coffee I consume each day.

"1 on some days 2" I answered.

He goes off by saying that's great, 2 cups is the max you should drink each day because if you get too much caffeine in your system it builds to much pressure on your muscles or nerves, I don't remember.

After that, we looked at each other in silence for a good 10 or 15 seconds before I began stammering: "cu... cups?? No, no. I meant 1 or 2 pots a day...."
