Battle.net Memes

Remember when we dreamed of a unified game launcher? The top panel shows all the major platforms (Battle.net, Epic, Rockstar, EA, Ubisoft, Steam) marching along like they're going somewhere important. The bottom panel reveals the grim reality - all of them dead and buried in a graveyard... except Steam, who's still trucking along like the immortal cockroach it is. Eight years and 17 launcher installations later, my SSD is basically a digital cemetery where game launchers go to consume resources and force updates when I'm trying to play literally anything. Yet somehow Steam endures, probably because Gabe Newell made a deal with some eldritch horror in exchange for eternal market dominance.
