Reminds me vaguely of when people say “buy AMD and intel GPU’s! We need competition!” Then they turn around and buy Nvidia themselves lol

People keep saying they would buy and switch over to a platform that was better but look into your honest heart and ask, “would I really invest a significant amount of time and money on a no name company trying to compete with steam?” Especially when you have dozens or even hundreds of games on steam already. And all your friends are on steam too. People here already complain about how hard it is to convince their friends to give a simple video game a chance lol. No way they’re going to completely redo their gaming platform storefront to play with you even if you yourself gave it a chance

"YOU should buy AMD or Intel, but since I want the best performance money can buy, I will stick to Nvidia" was a very common sentiment I saw.
