Well, they’ve been pushing all their capital toward exclusives and free giveaways.

It's insanity. They do have all the money in the world so I'm happy to claim free games. Never going to buy there unless the game will never come to steam (Alana Wake 2 being the one exception).

I got so tired of being logged out and having to jump through so many captcha hoops to get back in that I don't even claim the free games anymore.

Logging into Steam is crazy easy and I never get logged out.

I don't think Alan Wake II will ever come to Steam. It is published by Epic Games.

Guess I'm just never playing it, then.

So many thousands of amazing games I can play instead.

Oops, sorry. To be clear I bought Alan Wake 2 on Epic
