Buy? Pffft, why sell stuff when you can force everything to be subscriptions!
Sarcasm aside, I’ve always enjoyed being a PC gamer because it’s always been an “open” platform. Easy to pirate, easy to create and sell stuff for it (gfx card driver issues notwithstanding), no need to pay for and lick the owner’s balls to even get a developer license.
Although Steam has monopoly power in the PC landscape, GOG exists and I always prefer buying stuff there, so I can have offline backups of any games I desire.
