Every other game storefront has been like “But Valve doesn’t even do anything! We’ll cut them out and then we’ll make so much more money!” And then they force you over to their own garbage storefront that has none of the features of Steam, has a smaller selection of games and demands equal space in your system tray at all times.
They charge 30%, and only goes down after making $10 million in sales.
But Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft charge just as much.

They’re only undercutting Valve cause they wish they could be the monopoly taking 30%
Don’t get me wrong I think 30% is bullshit, but it’s an industry thing not especially a Valve thing
