I'm just amazed there's been like 3 or 4 separate times Bungie has tried to Scarab Lord Destiny with a mega-MMO grind and each time, stove hot

turns out the external drive i have Rock Band on seems to be on death's door, so i'm moving 1700 ish songs to the internal. it'll probably take like 3 weeks for the console to finish doing that

You do you but I will never not find it funny that the people that are the loudest about "Harmonix abandoned the community" are also the loudest about bragging about never actually contributing to the viability of said genre

tl;dr

Valve does not deserve 30%, it's just a landlord charging a third because you have to use them to sell.

They gladly lower this cut all the way down to 20% btw, as long as you make them a lot of money. EA, MS, Ubi, Sony do not pay 30%, they pay 20%. Aren't hegemonies great?

* Cost of rent
* Cost of returning product with 90 day returns, regardless of playtime, Valve is 14 days, and had to be sued to do returns

+ The actual cost of processing payments at retail is approx 3%
+ Hosting adds another 2%

Even a 3X net we're at 15%. Where is the other 15% coming from?

The 30% charged by previous entities before Steam that Valve copied included:
* Charging for breakage of arrived product
* Charging for the cost of shipping product back (broken + unsold)
* Live support (not offered by Valve) for every game even if the publisher/dev no longer exist

Republicans always do this evil shit, it's why stores can no longer even offer a public microwave to heat up food or else they will lose their ability to take SNAP (and it used to be common ) bsky.app/profile/cram...

This is only funny to me but the fact that Playstation will have a game running on the Halo 1 engine (Stubbs the Zombie) and actual Halo 1 (running on Reach Blam and UE) but they're not the same game is hilarious bsky.app/profile/ign....
