Edit: Yo, I’m not saying this is gonna happen. I just want to say that Windew’s UX sucks ass.
Your argument that Steam is a monopoly involves you purchasing a game from somewhere other than Steam?
Yes, buying from somewhere else and still being forced to install Steam just to be able to play it.
So your issue is with launchers then, because that does not describe a monopoly.
