| Legend11 said: I still don't get the Steam is good DRM and Xbox One is bad DRM argument some people are trying to make. Most of it has to do with "Well you have the choice of going to other companies instead of Steam" but isn't that the same with Xbox One with PS4, Wii U, etc? |
The difference their is price of entry. Steam and its rival services are all free at point of entry (most people already have a PC/Mac) making switching to a new or even complementary service easy and convenient. If you've bought an Xbox One but don't like the DRM you now have to shell out $300+ for a new system; there's an extra and significant barrier to switching to a rival service.
