We're seeing a lot of antitrust stuff going on in the tech world, we've got the Google antitrust, Google wants there to be a case against Microsoft and the Valve antitrust lawsuit has been turned into a class action case.
@BrodieOnLinux wait, is valve being sued or are they suing someone?
I can't see any reason why people would have a reason to sue valve. In fact I always found them siding with the customer in many disputes with publishers, but hey I guess company values can change.
@liamolua It's a game developer going after them for the 30% cut
@BrodieOnLinux @liamolua How can it be antitrust when there are other game stores they can take their business to? This ain't gonna work.
@silverfish @BrodieOnLinux @liamolua apparently they're doing some shady stuff to try to force devs to not make their games cheaper on other stores, where the cut is lower. That's not how competition is supposed to work.
@Amikke I'd be interested to see what 'shady stuff' they could possibly leverage to make that happen. It's not like game devs come into existence automatically having some kind of tie to Valve, and Epic exclusives have -definitely- been a thing.
