Steam just changed the rules so that games that make millions of dollars earn a higher % of their revenue... so the richest get richer. What a slap in the face to the rest of us 0-0 shouldnt it be the exact opposite?https://steamcommunity.com/groups/steamworks#announcements/detail/1697191267930157838 …
In theory, they’re supposed to “earn” their 30% cut by promoting your game to a bigger audience. But games that aren’t already popular are also disfavored by the algorithm. So people at the bottom literally get less, and now, pay more.
It’s obvious they did this to appease the biggest money interests... but it’s not good for the health of the gaming community or market. Niche, experimental games that broaden their audience like wandersong are impacted by these decisions.
If you're someone who likes indie games, I HIGHLY recommend you move your shopping to http://itch.io , where games cost the same but developers earn more. This makes a huge difference for small devs.
Fun fact, Wandersong is actually cheaper on http://itch.io --but I still earn more per purchase there.https://banov.itch.io/wandersong
Yeah, unless they change their algorithm or something it doesn't make a lot of sense.
But what are you going to do? Skipping Steam is suicide no matter the angle you look at the situation.
No, they "earn" their 30% by hosting your game for millions of people to download quickly across the entire world. Your game has to be available everywhere which costs a lot of money, so a game that sells more costs about the same, but earns more. That's why.
You're also not "losing" anything. You're getting the exact same amount you AGREED to originally, but now if your game sells more, you'll make more. Steam/valve is a business, not a charity. It's not their fault if your game doesn't sell well, it is however cutting into their $$$
Pay more? What i read tells me it was 70/30, and still is until 10 mil.
