You’re essentially complaining that of the 50k+ games on Steam, you can’t find a game you like, and you prefer being handheld and told what you like by console companies?

This is… a really weird argument. “Too much freedom, restrict me harder daddy Nintendo.”

I'm looking for Steam exclusive games that I either can't or haven't already played on other hardware. Not an easy task.

Why would a consumer value exclusivity on an open platform? Is this a tribalism thing? In vs. out group?

Steam has PC games that I can't ordinarily play as I don't have a PC.
