Damn that looks good, only missing volume keys [for me].

Backing up—always a good idea…although I just went ahead and switched to Experimental and it worked.

No matter the size, I find Steam more consumer friendly—even allowing end users to mod their games and make spin-offs without restrictive, we own everything about this game (looking at you, Activision-Blizzard!) EULAs and even hosting said games— tl;dr I support Steam because I feel they're less likely to pull the rug out from under end users' legs

The only exclusive I bought and had EGS installed for was Borderlands 3. The store exclusives otherwise piss me off…heck, I collect all the free games Epic give away and never install or play them. I feel Steam is more consumer friendly—albeit still a business.

These cards look exciting but I'll have to wait for reviews because I'm already rocking a 6800XT that I'm quite happy with.
