Newell remained magisterially above the fray.

    I do think Valve could drop it to 25% and not lose much sleep over their coffers.

      I mean I don’t know how much money steam is banking, but they provide quite a good service for their share.

      Max download rates at all times (almost).

      Amazing steam overlay. Online gaming. Online saves. Workshop. Linux support.

      And many more. Some of that epic has too but in comparison epic launcher is shit.

        You mean that games need to have 100 000 copies sold to get to the 30% cut?
