Arcsquad12 posted:It honestly reads like Tim Sweeney is intentionally trying to make a deal that sounds hostile to Steam so that when Steam declines he can use their refusal as a cassus belli to declare open war on steam. Sweeney knows the cut is unsustainable without degrading the experience in some ways. Like Steam absorbs the transaction fees because of the 30% cut, whereas transaction fees for anywhere outside of the US are passed on to the consumer in EGS. Another one of the reasons why EGS is anti consumer.

Also that Fortnite has peeked and their updates are doing absolutely nothing to stop the bleeding

Magitek posted:Is it, though? I rather doubt it. I mean, maybe it wouldn't support Valve as a game development company (who haven't released a traditional game since Portal 2 in 2011), but DOTA2 alone might be enough for that. I already mentioned how they pass on the transaction fees to the user instead of absorbing it like steam does
