  • Unless it’s infrastructure or something with a natural monopoly.

    The main competition with steam is buying physical copies of things. If we want to support retailers selling physical copies of games and bricks and mortar shops, that’s a good thing.

    Alas, I think the games industry is chosing to abandon them. And Steam has the ability to add games purchased outside of Steam to it for convenience. Unlike Epic it puts the user close to the top of priorities.


















  • Megas XLR was great. I very much dig giant robots.

    Invader Zim, Clone High, Duckula (and Dangermouse (original) are all very good - but of them only Clone High is aimed at people older than 14 (not that older people don’t or didn’t appreciate them) none of them feel obscure to me, although neither Clone High nor Invader Zim were well known in the UK when released in North America, but Internet word of mouth got them known in time.

    Chilly Beach, Oblongs, Undergrads, and Mission Hill I have never heard of. So deep enough, at least to a Brit of my age.
