How is it bad for a game to only be available through a shitty CCP subsidiary’s shitty storefront that no one wants to contaminate their computer with?

You literally don’t need to use their client. You can pull these games with 100% free software. Which you can’t do with steam.

While it requires setting up your on site to take money, Steam has always allowed developers to create keys for free. They can sell or give those away for 100% of the revenue indefinitely.

Humble Bundle does pretty much that from what I can tell. Surprised more games don’t come to the humble store
