They did a lot for pc gaming and I like them, but they really should lower the % cut imho.

Agreed, but as long as there is no real competitor they have simply no incentive to do that

[–] hoya@lemmy.ml 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Competitors are out there, it's just that not enough people care about how much of their money goes to the developer/publisher.

real competitors, there are ofcourse the niche stores like GOG, but the ones with more money like Epic, EA whatever en Ubisoft Connect just suck

There is nothing wrong with gog or epic. Even xbox is fine.
