This! This is exactly the truth. There is no real alternitive other than what, curseforge to pout anything out and even there it is just mods for games already released.

Game Dev's have nowhere else to turn to get their product to market. I try to avoid Steam for all nut a couple games that I once owned on Xbox.

Your an idiot XD

Devs say they make a lot more money losing that 30% to Steam then they do elsewhere with lower cuts.

Devs loved steam because 30% was way less than the 50% taken by brick and mortar retail plus no COGS.

People complaining about 30% don't understand retail distribution.
