  Really? What’s the benefit of going solo instead of paying the 30% thru steam.

    If you’re launching on Steam you’re paying the 30% anyways.

    If you publish elsewhere there’s a lot you have to build yourself, but it would allow more freedom in the way you implement it. It might also be cheaper, but that depends on the way you do things.

    I’m not suggesting they do, just that it’s a feature Steam provides.

    Obviously 30% higher revenue is the benefit of self publishing.
