On which distribution platform are the best games available?
In the Microsoft Store, for example, there's Flight Simulator 2020, on Steam there's almost every imaginable game, on Origin there are in-house games from EA, as well as in-house games or published games are available at Uplay and at the Epic Store you can choose between use smaller indie titles to larger titles like Fortnite
(Survey part 1/2) (PC games)
Actually likes Epic Games, Steam and Uplay all pretty much the same. I couldn't commit myself to one now.
Is really very difficult.
I think Steam is the best. But sometimes you just have to use others to get to the games
All the other launchers just have nothing more than one game that I find interesting.
I say: very clearly: Steam.
The most obvious reason is that Steam has the largest selection of games and it has grown even bigger because EA and Microsoft have decided to put their players back on Steam, but their games need to be played on Steam to be able to play them have also installed and registered their respective online stores on their PC.
In addition, Steam has several features that either make it better than the other online stores or the other online stores don't have at all:
The review system: on Steam you don't rate a game with a 5 star point system as in the others, or not at all because they don't have a review system, but you state whether you can recommend this game to other people or not. If a game has 70% or more good reviews, it is displayed on the outside with a blue thumbs-up finger, in 40 to 70% with a green box with a white wavy line inside and in less than 40% positive reviews you can see it on the outside red thumb down finger. This review system says much more clearly how the game was received by the players than a star rating and on Steam all multi-online store games get significantly more reviews, which can also not be manipulated like in the Microsoft, App and Google Play stores
The steamcharts. This is a separate website from which you can see how many people are currently playing a game on Steam, so that you can better decide whether you should buy it or not when playing an online game.
Unlike the other online store, there's a community forum, a support page, reasonable filters, ignore and follow-up options and mod support.
But I know one point of criticism of Steam that the other online stores don't have: the hunger for storage space. I wanted to install Steam on my laptop. This currently has 127 MB of storage space. But when I tried to install Steam, it couldn't be read because Steam needed 477 MB! Why the hell does Steam need so much storage space! The other online stores have a much smaller memory requirement! There can only be bad optimization behind this! So I sent myself a message via email and via the Steam Support Valve, in which I gave myself up about it and asked that this be changed by better optimizing Steam so that it takes up less than 100MB of storage space. But I don't know if and how my complaint about Steam's hunger for storage space was read at all.
Nevertheless, Steam is currently the best PC launcher from the inhuman hunger for storage space.
What should Part 2/2 be about?
The question will go online soon.
