Honestly modding and fan games are becoming such lawsuit traps idk why anyone even bothers anymore instead of just making an original game. At least that way you own the Ip and can distribute it however you want.
Make the next big Mario style game instead of a Mario fan game that is never going to have anyone play it thanks to Nintendos lawyers.


But but but…. I don’t care who it is making and selling them, games as a service is toxic to players and anti consumer. TF2 normalized and opened the door to a lot of the shit that turned into loot boxes with its micro transactions for keys to get better weapons and cosmetics.
GAAS are scams, even if some of them might behave and don’t shit all over the living room floor.


Yeah it’s all the Shit TAA covering up lazy developers cost cutting.
TAA is a plague and is artificially inflating the performance cost of games to sell new GPUs and pump the Ai bubble up some more.


Yes so now there is the operating system monopoly by the two giants and the gaming monopoly on pc with steam and the consoles being locked down ecosystems run by two corporations. None of that is good competition or a positive for creators or players.
It’s still a fucking monopoly we are stuck in and steam like every damn oligarch tech company needs to be chopped up.
Go on, lick that boot as hard as you can


Yeah their monopoly already has fucked the whole gaming industry to the point of there being virtual no competition.
That fucking toxic shit needs to burn with the rest of the corporate shitheads.
A previously stated, eat the rich won’t make any exceptions for any oligarch let alone one running a monopoly.


More entrenching of their services as a monopoly. Without a doubt the cost of a sales page and servers would be less than 30% of a lot of games sales. It’s a cost they are willing to pay if it means keeping their walled garden and 30% flat rate. (Like Sony selling consoles at a loss)
Any open source Linux contributions from steam (proton) are welcome because it’s not tied into their monopoly and people can use them freely.
You can enjoy the small victories while also being aware of future outcomes from these corporate giants.


And yet he still charges 30% to list on steam…
He could move it all to a non profit like blender and charge creators a reasonable price if he cared about the industry or players.
He’s just as profit minded as any billionaire. He’s just using Linux contributions to solidify their monopoly on pc gaming.
