    Those are not my points, you made them up. My point is, there are no rules that prevent it from happening. No competition to make it seem fair at least for some other companies who are not Valve.

    I have complains about Steam but financial part is hardly one of them. It’s not that they deserve the money, it’s that most others are being hugely ineffective, which creates this disparity.

    It’s funny how you suggest that adding any part of those 30% to the pocket of actual devs would solve any problems.

    My other points in other threads remain valid. I think you just misunderstood them.

    I’m not defending anyone. It’s you who’s attacking people, for questionable reasons.

      What disparity? All these companies generation millions and billions in profits with the boss making hundreds of times what the average employee makes in a year.

      It’s funny how you suggest that adding any part of those 30% to the pocket of actual devs would solve any problems.

      It would put the money in the hands of workers instead of in the hands of the elite that already has enough money that the only way it can spend it is by wasting it on millions dollars toys while devs need to camp in their office parking lot.

      Your boss must truly love you very much if you believe that they deserve all the profits they generate off your work.

        What disparity?

        The disparity between a good quality product and useless crap? The disparity between the %% of profits that roughly goes to single employee in different companies? The disparity between 1 yacht and 6 yachts? You choose.

        It would put the money in the hands of workers

        You can put it in their hands right now. Sell your game in your own store and get 100% profits.
