I'm not saying that they can't have a profit. After all they need to pay marketing, cc fees, bother with scammers/chargebacks and so on. Doing like before the IGN acquisition where people could put zero was unfair. I am totally fine giving them a fair share.

I'm saying that this slider is designed to be deceiving and pretend their share is minimal and not a third of that.

Not to mention that 30% is the minimum fee.

The default fee if the user doesn't change the slider is this:

  • 50% to the software house
  • 5% to charity
  • 45% to humble

And in the slider it doesn't visually appear they take 45% but it looks like a 25% (I'm getting error 500 when uploading a screenshot)
