Steam will let you sue Valve now
Steam will let you sue Valve now
A rare reversal on a company’s forced arbitration clause.
A rare reversal on a company’s forced arbitration clause.
Another common W for Steam, but in all seriousness, arbitration clauses in consumer contracts need to be banned.
It's because there's effectively a class-action suit going on right now, but because the user agreement says you have to use arbitration, there were tens of thousands of people who are like "sure let's go to arbitration". Valve is losing tons of money having to fight all the suits.

Note: I am one of the people involved in this suit.
Honestly, that claim sounds like garbage.
Right, like the fuck you complaining about? You didn't get your game at 60 percent off? You paid for the limited edition bonus starter pack?
Like I can see if your in another country and the company who puts it up for sale doesn't price it for the region but is that steams fault?
Also 30 Percent is low for some of these companies or right on target for most
This is a laughable suit. Why do you feel entitled to any kind of compensation over what Valve takes before paying developers as a consumer? If games on Steam were 30% more than games anywhere else, there might be merit to it; but that isn't the case and it's what this CLA is arguing.
