Why are people ok with using both of these parasitic middlemen? they use the same CDN (Akamai) and take 30% from developers while doing nothing.
tell those devs to host the games by themselvesor maybe mail them to their customers kek
They should take 80%. Fuck devs
>>743363340>80% of my income should be transferred from my employer to my jewish landlord
>>743363234Without Sonny’s patronage, devs couldn’t afford Hollywood actors and licensed music, the cornerstone of vidya.
>>743363340hi /r/landlords
>hmm let's play some vidya>steam has been stuck trying to connect for 20 minutesif you gonna be them DMR platform you should at least FUCKING WORK
>>743363234factorio chads rise up
Why don't these devs just sell off Steam on their own site? Nobody is forcing them. If they don't like Sony, sell on PC and on their own site.
>>743364512no steam = no buy i want my chud friends to see the newest gachaslop porn game i purchased and tallied +1 on my displayed badges
>>743364512factorio chads do it just fine
absence of 30% tax will not make games cheaper ( physical becoming digital didn't keep that promise either ) therefore I don't care, host your own services while secure download mirrors or FUCK OFF
>>743364512Because they want all the goodies Steam provides them without having to give Steam money. Handling all the payment stuff, the easy controller support, forums, etc. They want that for free.
>>743365912Bro... you're in the containment board.You're in hell didn't you figure it out yet?
>>743363234Don't look into what brick and mortar stores charge for the privilege of carrying an empty plastic box with a code inside. (Hint: it's 30%)
steam provides so much for developers it's not even fucking funny just how lazy valve lets devs be.
