Steam sucks

I thought steam was bad in 2003 AD when it force-replaced won.net and I had to install it in order to continue playing CS and NS. The only thing they fixed in 14 years was download speeds. Back in the day nvidia etc. sponsored servers for steam, and hoo boy they were always slow.

I still can't figure out what Valve did with all their money? They could have remade the client a thousand times, make it follow windows design guidelines, have bigger font, look less dark? Implement patches so that it downloads and applies only changed bytes, not complete files. 30GB for a game patch? Please...

I wish I had saved all the marvelous steam gifs from back in the day :corsair:
