I mean a for-profit corporation owned by an ex-microsoft employee...

Everything about that screams enshittification, but they've done a pretty good job to be relatively consumer friendly.

Not being beholden to share holders demanding ever increasing growth figures goes a long way.

But 30% is still a figure for 2004 not 2024. Maybe scale it up to 30% based on game size. I don't give a fuck about Ubisoft and Activision, but give smaller devs a break.

Sure, i'm not against developers keeping more of their own money, i'm not even against valve getting sued....

What i am against is this blind hate of every corporation. Even the ones like valve who are doing some good things. (bUt tHeY'Re nOt dOInG goOd oUT oF tHe gOOdNeSs of THeiR oWn hEaRts! It'S aLL ABouT ProFiT$$$$!!!)

I get it, capitalism sucks, corporations suck, profits suck... We are on lemmy after all

But until you throw out your computer, your phone, disconnect yourself from the internet, and move into the woods... You live, breathe, and contribute to a capitalist society, so stop letting perfect be the enemy of good and shitting on every corporation, even the "good guys". (I dont mean YOU.. I just mean the fediverse)

This is just lesser-evilism. Though I do agree that Valve is a lesser evil than say Microsoft or Apple.
