Like anyone is worried about more Google gaming. It's like an idiot tax on people who are too dumb to have learned not to trust them.
Honestly I really like Play Pass on android. Mostly because it's only 3usd here thanks to regional pricing and there's a lot of great value! My issue is that Google generally sucks at keeping things going so I'd never invest anything beyond that with them.
My Steam account from 2006 is still going, all of the games work, it's mostly the same platform but better. I don't think Google can match that.
This. Valve is doing a lot of good. People can claim they are doing a lot of bad as well but I can't mention many companies with purity from top to bottom.
