You did not answer the question. Developers that self publish are repying purely on word of mouth marketing. Its rarely successful. Minecraft is very rare exception.

    I learn about vintage story from a very obscure video on youtube a few years ago. I never see any media talking about it. Lemmy is the only place i see people occasionally talking about it.

    I found it via YouTube, steam had nothing to do with it. Your not making a point here and I'm not going to keep it up.

    A great example is when Factorio was released onto steam.

    Again youtube, I leaned about it from nerd cubed. I spend a lot of time on YouTube over the years and I find out about most off-steam games from there. Dwarf fortress is another that comes to mind.
