Quoting: Comandante Ñoñardo"If your game has fully functional SteamOS/Linux version, instead of charge you the 30% of the game price, I'm gonna charge you only the 5% of the game price"

But nooo! For some mysterious reason GabeN refuse to do this....
Dropping 25% of your income to support a 1% platform. Yeah that reason is real mysterious. They must be idiots. Or paid by Microsoft. Or something...

:whistle:
Ok, the 5% cut is a fantasy.

But Valve has a serious competition called Epic Game Store, Stadia and Xbox Game Pass for Windows 10 ...

The only way to attract big publishers and have them doing what Valve wants in the way that Valve wants is with a good monetary incentive, aka very small cut.

Imagine the next super AAA being six months timed SteamOS/Linux exclusive because, instead of taking the regular 30% cut, Valve takes the 10% of the game price only with that condition... 2 points less than Epic Store, by the way..

The marketshare is a cheap excuse...
Several AAA games were ported to Stadia when it was new and has zero marketshare.

As I said a lot of times:
If Valve gives a good incentive to the big publishers, they will port all the AAA games to Linux.
