Wait, why not? That’s literally the point of a free market.
Steam (as the platform) should offer better terms to the game makers, and entice them to sell on their platform. Banning them from selling elsewhere, and forcing a 30% tax on top of it, is antithetical to both the creators’ and users’ needs.
- ChoGGi 6y agoYou can sell your game on other platforms for less, you just can't sell steam keys for less (steam will generate free keys for you to sell off platform).
- boublepop 6y agoSteam isn’t a free market, neither is Walmart. They are private market places operated on a free market. And that market doesn’t become any less free by them having terms for the suppliers who want to use their market places to sell their products.
