    Bad competition is still better than no competition, because of the aforementioned issue.

      Yeah, but fair competition? EGS paying publishers to have exclusives doesn’t seem like fair competition to me.

        For sure! There is no real market with exclusives! EGS is the bad apple that may spoil the bunch. Now do steam services also create a pseudo exclusive, yes kinda. But developers do not have to use those, they are just making their life easier. And developers can still do their games on other platforms as well.
