This is falling for the better mousetrap... trap: https://www.monash.edu/business/marketing/marketing-dictiona...

Game buyers are going to use the thing that's sitting on their desktop. Every other aspect of either store is tertiary.

EGS has been shoveling money in a furnace, solely to also be sitting on some desktops, but Steam has a decade+ head start and it's going to be an absolute slog.

Yea, what I totally want is going back to 10 years ago when my gaming PC was loaded down with a gazillion craptacular "launchers". Every publisher seemingly had one. I'll take Steam tyvm.

What I want is healthy competition for marketplaces so that one company can't massively diminish the value they were offering over the course of a decade and still command the same prices.
