Okay, but why is it a must have? Been running Linux for years and never felt like steam was missing what so ever.

>>58074130
it's what he considers a must-have
not everyone uses the same software on their computer (otherwise this thread would be meaningless)

>>58074144
And that's why I ask why he considers it a must have, since I personally only consider it to be a pain to use steam.

>>58074153
probably because he likes playing steam games

>>58074168
Can't you get most Linux steam games on some other way?

>>58074252
you can pirate linux steam games, if that's what you mean, but what's wrong with getting legit games?

>>58073424
/thread

>>58074288
Nothing wrong with paying for the software you use.
Hmm I kinda hoped many Linux developers would concider releasing without being bound to a platform like steam.
Well it's just always annoying seeing steam everywhere and anywhere.
I wish I could run games without an active internet connection and so on.

>>58074362
take a look at GOG
you essentially get DRM-free DDL

>>58074362
some games are only released via steam, it's not something the end user can control (legitimately)
i get GOG versions myself where possible, i don't like having to fire up steam to run a game either

speaking of such, does someone know if someone's made a linux version of SSE? (smart steam emulator) i use that to run (legit) single player games in wine without needing to run steam
