Every single argument there could be applied to every Amazon, Google, etc.

As a publisher if you do not publish on steam you are review bombed, rage bait is plastered across the internet, and every other comment online is about boycotting.

Oh and there is an easy solution from 15 years ago. Steam killed it. Discs. Or a modern digital representation where you can resell and use the content with a launcher.

I always find it funny when i point out too pcmr that console gaming is far cheaper and easier fairer to the consumer for this reason.

has games from companies like Riot games, or various MMOs been reviewbombed for not being on steam?

Of course there are edge cases.
