Not for cyberpunk 2077 on GoG, Assassin Creed [stuff] on uPlay, whatever EA thing EA is selling on Origin etc.
Also, you can sell steam keys for your own gane, on your own store, without having to pay Valve.
Doesn’t matter. Not about the quality, nor the morons downvoting me. The conversation is about percentage and a misconception. Steam takes 30%. PlayStation takes 30%. Same with Microsoft and probably Nintendo. 30% is also the “small” portion Google and Apple take on their platforms. I only know of Epic and GoG that take less. We’re talking about numerical fact, not opinion, and I can’t help but notice it’s the platforms that are comfortable having a monopoly that take 30% while the ones that publicly promote competition (or at least claim to, to be fair) that take less.

That doesn’t make sense. Steam takes the same cut. I’m sure all of the vendors do.

Epic made a whole selling point of taking less
They are also a dickbag company with a garbage platform.

They slipped my mind. Unfortunately I think they’ll remain the only ones.
It’s equally stupid that we put up with their rent seeking.
Epic’s cut is 10%
Yea I’d forgotten about Epic.
