Yeah I agree that steam offers them a decent marketplace and we’re definitely seeing lots of great games from smaller studios or individuals as a result.
I’d prefer if sales were “taxed” lower than 30% up to a given threshold instead of fluffing Gabe’s already massive bank balance though.
Like 10% on your first 50K, sliding scale upwards after that for example. I’m spitballing but you get the idea I hope. He just doesn’t need that level of payout from smaller folks.
Most of those small developers wouldn’t have been able to make a dime trying to get their games into physical stores.
That’s not to say it should be this way, but it could be a lot worse.
