Quoting: Liam DaweNo developers (should) think that 30% is too much, because of the cost involved in maintaining their own infrastructure.Quoting: LinasNot entirely sure what you're saying? No consumers think it or no game developers think it's worth it? Or are you saying the opposite, that no developer truly thinks Valve's 30% isn't worth it?Perhaps if Valve keep doing interesting features like this, more developers might consider the 30% cut Valve take as worth it?Nobody actually thinks that. Just running the infrastructure yourself can cost as much, not to mention development and maintenance of the software. It's all about grabbing the free cash that's being flung around lately. I doubt it will last.

Quoting: razing32I'm more surprised this is allowed on steam considering they have been censoring anime tittiesThey are not doing that anymore. Anime tiddies are A-OK now. :whistle:

Not sure I can recommend the game. A lot of players are dicks.

Quoting: RCL(P.S. I work for Epic, although here I'm just another Linux gamer speaking privately).If you meet Tim next to the coffee machine, I have this idea I'd like to share with him. :wink:
A big new release of the RTS Warzone 2100 has finally made it out the door

Warzone 2100 is a great game, that can still compete with modern titles. There are a few caveats though:
The timer. If you like to take your time building your army and chipping away at the enemy, the timed missions will frustrate you endlessly.
Transport missions. Some missions required you to load a few units into a transport ship, and go to a remote location away from your main base. You can then get reinforcements from your existing unit pool, but you cannot really see which specific units are you taking. So you will end up accidentally breaking up groups, or removing units from locations you did not intend to.
But it is a definite classic that deserves much more credit than it gets. Go play it. :)

I literally have not used a mouse and keyboard for gaming ever since I got a Steam Controller. I think it really shines in first person and third person games. Twin stick shooters are a bit more tricky, but work ok.
The only thing I struggle with is strategy games. Somehow I find marking units accurately very hard. Which is weird, because that is what it is supposed to be good at...
