I'm all for rulings against anti competition, but what does valve do that's actually anti-competitive? They're the most user focused storefront out there.

Are they stating AAA games have increased in cost because of this? I've noticed a lot of new games are $70 to $100+, but I've associated those with shitty companies being greedy.

Yeah I'm at a loss for why valv is at fault here. The dev sets the price of the game. If the game is only available on steam, well that's the devs choice too.
