    To be fair when Steam first dropped, the idea of digital distribution was hopelessly naive and everything similar to it (like GameTap) was shut down pretty quickly.

    Everything that tries to be “like Steam” also fails hard.

    So there was a time when I was laughing at Steam with the rest of them.
