The Steam Account is used to distribute updates etc. to the client. The PSN account has no such advantage, it doesn't help me. How are they the same?

The only difference between the two is that you despise PlayStation, that’s why you can’t see your bias. Steam gamers think the billionaire who runs steam is THEIR billionaire so they somehow think the company is moral, it isn’t. Steam is every bit as unethical and the rest

Are you a Sony shareholder, or a small child? I clearly formulated my criticism: Steam offers me something (downloading of patches, Linux compatibility etc.), while PSN only offers incompatability. They deliberately make their games harder to play than necessary without giving me anything in return.

Would you like to take your ridiculous straw man back and try again?

How do you call my argument a straw man while calling me a shill for having a differing opinion than you? You see how corrupted your thinking is right?

Well, you strawmanned me by saying I "despise PlayStation". This is a lie, but it's obviously the only way your argument makes any sense.

Now the question is: why do you strawman people who criticize Sony? I see two options: you are a small child who can't handle his favorite console manufacturer being criticized, or you are monetarily benefit from doing so. Everything else would be incredibly sad. So, which is it?
