What do you think they've been working on over the years mate?.
People give Valve shit for such little trite, yet they're the only client out there that:
Support Linux (Much more than MS) Support for multiple gamepads and gamepad software configurations Support for built in mod support support for user reviews Support for multiple features like built in Streaming and user galleries (You can even see user in-game photos via a game's storefront board).
Then of course there are these:
Some folk here also willingly forget that consoles charge 30%, on top of other clients also charging for it, with the few that take less of a cut being Discord and Epic. The consoles also charge for online as well, which never ends up going to any of the devs who have created online based games. People tend to want to destroy that which provides us with something decent, if not beneficial, and those people aren't exactly intelligent or in the know either. Steam does a lot more than all the other clients, so to toss that all away for a slightly lesser cut is just plain asinine. At the end of the day, the devs exist because we exist, because we pay them, not because we owe them. |
What's up mate, long time no talk. The Epic store is only on the markrt. Steam took a long time to improve. Epic will improve at a faster rate imo and all the while giving pc devs a bigger cut. If Valve made the hardware that the games launched on id justify the 30%. I believe they tried but that idea bombed. Valve have been in the comfort zone for far too long. I'm glad epic with the help of the global phenom fortnite are here to rattle a few cages. It will be interesting if Twitch come along and rattle even more.
