    I mean… yeah?

    steam is running a business and game devs are too.

    if you develop games because it’s a hobby, more power to you, but the platform you’re using (steam) requires capital to operate.

      And same with consumers. We aren’t a charity throwing away money for no reason. We actively seek out discounts to get more for our money. We want discounts to be given priority.

            man I wish. that’s a game company that knows how to make money.

            they treat their customers like absolute shit, year after year. yet still people keep buying their garbage.

            🤔 I wonder why?

              By knowing most consumers don’t have the self control to not spend money and fall for marketing hype. Probably call those who don’t get sucked in and end up being more price sensitive and waiting or not buying karens for not being part of the initial revenue made.
