Maybe they are, but it's not "absolutely zero" like you said.

DLC is literally just DownLoadeable Content

So like... I don't get the hate for a specific method of providing content. Like, there's obviously a difference between Factorio's Space Age, and what The Sims does, even though they are both DLC.

True, but giving money for free isn’t a proper way of fighting with poverty.

It literally is. Study after study proves just giving people money with no strings attached gives massive benefits for essentially no net cost.

The fact that you don't know this proves you either ignore this, or don't search anything to confirm you're correct.

Except the projects take decades, skyrocket in costs and get delayed for decades on top.

France is doing just fine with none of those issues.

Do you regularly get malware from xbox controllers?

Because they don't always use condoms, and that loophole is so obvious even a vegetable could see through it.

Judges aren't stupid.

Steam has no competitors because nobody is competing with them, not because they are forcing nobody to compete with them.

Steam isn't abusing their dominant position to prevent competition. Other companies could make their own storefront and compete with steam. Nobody does in a way that's actually comparable to steam.

Steam has a monopoly, but it's not because steam is actively keeping it that way.

The whole purpose of art is to be an outlet for expressing ourselves as human beings. It exists out of this need for expression; part of what makes a work worth appreciating is the human person(s) behind that said work and the effort and skill they put into making it.

This is completely and utterly your own opinion, not a fact. I know several people who can't draw for shit, due to various reasons, but now AI allows them to create images they enjoy. One of them has aphantasia (They literally cannot imagine images).

This is basically trying to argue there's only 1 correct way to make "art", which is complete and utter bullshit. Imagine trying to say that a sculpture isn't art because it was 3D printed instead of chiseled. It makes 0 sense for the method of making the art to impact whether or not it is art. "Expression" can take many forms. Why is this form invalid?
