What do you suggest, when the alternatives like epic or Ubisoft are exponentially worse?

Steam is the best, and we're lucky that Steam is the one that won rather than another. Which could definitely have happened because once one of them is in place it's extremely hard to change.

So the situation is good for gamers, but from an economic point of view it's bad.
