And then look what happened after steam of companies saying PC is dead and not wanting to invest in it. It's not like the market wasn't open for anyone to enter. All the other companies didn't care including Microsoft in their own platform. Even look at how barebones the launchers are compared to Steam and how all the companies didn't care about Linux.

It's not like these opportunities were never around and Steam just happened to get good will. Companies still are putting in the bare minimum and have more trouble or maybe disinterest in matching the features of Steam than a new company making a smartphone. How ridiculous is that. That companies making a smartphone did a better job of trying to be modern than a companies attempt at a launcher.
