Forums - PC Discussion - I hate steam

I don't know why I am buying all these games and no time to play :(

Maybe I am addicted to buying, rather than playing :(



Around the Network

I try to limit myself, which is quite hard. I usually wait for the sales because I can never justify getting a game day one due to my back log with rare exceptions.



Tease.

I controlled myself and only bought counter-strike! 

That's mostly because I can't run 90% of the game on steam, though.

I dont like steam, most recently because I found out not only do you not own the games you buy, but you also own them for one user. My buddy wants to start playing Team Fortress 2. He cant because there is only one profile, and he wants his own with his own unlockables. We both play Dawn of War 2. With the new expansion around the corner being a "steamworks" game that means we share an account. That means our win/loss records and our unlocks are shared. This can only be avoided by buing another copy of the game. Yes I have to own and install multiple copies of the same game to have more than one unique user. Fuck off digital distribution.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

Really, so if I have a copy of call of duty black ops for Xbox/PS, the stats are locked to the console no matter what XBL/PSN tag Im using. Really fucking bro?
