I’m sure as hell not jumping into a comment section spending my time defending a multi-million dollars corporations that already overpays lawyers to do that.

I'm not defending anything. Nothing I've said was in defense of Steam. However it was the most basic of fact check for this "Developer" or "source". Which has shown/proven to already be bullshit. YOU are amplifying that message for some reason without doing the most fundamental of a fact check.

And yes... when I detect bullshit... I'm going to call it out. Bullshit stinks.

IMO the fact that the developer is selling the game five cents cheaper on another storefront doesn't prove that it's bullshit. As I said, it could just be that Steam doesn't care enough to go after them for a five cents difference, or they allowed it on that specific case after the developer sued them in 2021, or maybe who knows, it's an entirely different reason. Calling it "bullshit" without even knowing the context is way too rushed.

They made a claim... A claim that you can readily show they're clearly ALREADY doing. They need to GIVE the context.

They chose not to. I'm not going to jump on their bandwagon on just blind faith. I'm going to question their claim because they're already doing what they claim they cannot do. However the fact that they chose to omit that context that they should have provided from the outset is itself damning. People don't omit facts that would prove their point. They do however make statements that are inconsistent when they're lying.
