Ryozuki, I know, it's just name. Shortcut for me
20:26
actually
20:26
they pay more attention to those games
20:26
because, they were big wave of shitty games
Avatar
so they decided to switch that platform to something better
20:27
but actually, it's pretty simillar
20:27
just more rigoristic rules
20:27
;p
20:27
and, you have to pay 100$ every game you want to release
20:28
sure?

"In order to get fully set up, you will need to pay a $100.00 USD fee for each product you wish to distribute on Steam. You can pay this fee with any payment method supported by Steam in your region."

<Edible> that's good
21:59
<Edible> AAA titles should be on steam
21:59
<Edible> for everything else, theres plenty of other options
Avatar
no one should have monopoly in that subject
22:01
it's stupid. Steam shouldn't be the only platform
Avatar
<Edible> it isnt
Avatar
because, they can dictate the prcies
22:01
i know
Avatar
<Edible> and it wont be if you have to pay to distribute
22:04
<Edible> at the end of the day, steam is just a really pretty package manager with belts and whistles
22:04
<eeeee> 100 usd is more of just a spam filter though. it's just a one time payment, right?
Avatar
for every single title
Avatar
<Edible> yeah, but what about open source and free games? who's gonna cash that dough for em?
22:05
<Edible> especially games that need that money for development
22:05
<eeeee> not that i'm using steam but i think those bells and whistles have their value too, there seems to be a lot of social activity around gaming on steam
Avatar
but if I understand, they will return it after you reach 1000$
22:06
it doesn't matter if it is open source, or free i guess
22:06
They did it, because of all of that crap which were for a long time.
22:07
I mean, bad games. Not finished games, etc
Avatar
<Edible> how can they return money for free games?
