I don't care for the avarage gamer. Actually I do; I am worried that every game out there is tailored to suit their needs; a dumbed down experience with flashy graphics. If Steam is a part of this, I hate Steam for this too.
It "lets" me play the game yes. I have start Steam, wait for it to connect to the servers, close the pop-ups, daily deals and stuff, ignore people sending me messages/invitations, notice the sluggy connection, find out a random game is updating or Steam needs to be restarted.
Even though I don't buy the game from Steam, even when I buy it from a store in a nice little box, I will need Steam to play it. I don't like how Steam is being forced down my throat.
