The modder behind Special K, a PC gaming enhancement suite, deleted their 20-year-old Steam account along with an anti-Valve manifesto.
The creator criticized Steam's update policies and impact on PC gaming, expressing frustration over compatibility issues and reliance on the platform for game functionality.
The modder highlighted concerns about Steam's influence on games purchased, including limitations on store selection and hardware support.
While some of the criticism toward Steam is acknowledged, the issues raised by the modder extend beyond Steam alone and involve broader aspects of the PC gaming ecosystem.
