minus-squaresugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up3·4 个月前Yeah, even 50% would be baller. So like 20% to the storefront, 20% to the publisher, and 10% to random other costs.

minus-squaresugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-24 个月前Same. Most of the money I spend on games goes to indie devs, and I’ll usually only buy a AAA if it’s either on steep discount or actually really good. Something like 70% to indies, 30% to AAA.
