I have something called "Steam" that does nothing

[Wizzington]

Back when CK2 was being made, there was an outcry on these forums for a non steam version. Time and money was put into making and maintaining a non steam version... That almost nobody bought.

Steam is *the* platform for PC games right now. Steam haters are a tiny, tiny minority.

Steam haters might be a small minority, but guess the steam dislikers are more than that ;-) I for one see it as an unfortunate necessity, which have it´s benefits sure and have improved with it´s services mainly due to European consumer laws and a general evolving standard from going from a new concept to a more settled institution.

I for one dislike steam due to their majority, even monopoly-like dominance and how they have treated customers in the past. Yet as stated, it has been improved so benefits are getting better

Ultimately, the amount dislike or hate doesn't matter if supporting non-Steam platforms is a financial loss.
