    Forgot about steam’s forced DRM on purchases.

    Not a thing.

    Also, are you complaining that smaller devs get a bigger cut than larger devs? That’s certainly an interesting gripe…

      Smaller devs have to pay 30% of their revenues to steam. If a game sells well enough, their revenue share increases and steam takes a smaller cut, 25 or even 20%. This greatly benefits publishers of big games and unfairly punishes smaller developers. I think that’s a perfectly fair gripe.

        tbf the way it’s worded sucks and does sound that way if you don’t already know what it’s supposed to mean. which i didn’t until i scrolled down. why so hostile?
