They're beating the competition because they don't allow developers to sell games cheaper than on Steam if they want to sell on Steam

Makes sense to me. Can't use all of steams fancy features and clout to direct people away from it.

Other stores literally paid for game exclusivity and couldn't manage to dethrone steam, you really think it's not a difference in quality?

Makes sense to you. To me, it seems like they want a monopoly.
