    Yeah most people don’t remember being forced to get steam to play cs. And the fun of going from 150fps to sub 30fps. Nor buying HL2 day one and having to wait 3 weeks to play it–I should have just bought the cd version at the local store sigh

      I hated steam for years because I was forced to use it for HL. It’s good now though. I always find it surprising when people think it’s worshipping to say “this product actually is better than the others”. It is. And that is all I see anyone saying. That is not worshipping.

      I did buy hl2 on disc and was furious when I realised I HAD to create an online account to play the game that I had physical discs for.

        Meanwhile you ran it on Windows. So obviously you didn’t really care about being manipulated and fucked up the ass dry.
