Taking a proactive approach in dealing with habitually abusive users or user groups, so that small indie devs don't have to be the bad guy, would be incredibly helpful. | Share anonymous demographic information | Share anonymized responses, Share anonymous demographic information | 3 | At least $250K | 3 | 2014 | Yes, reliably | 5 | ||||||||

11 | 8/15/2017 9:31:37 | Agree | Disagree | Strongly disagree | Agree | Itch | Even though I agree with Steam's new policy of being open and letting new people in, it used to be that Steam itself brought a substantial amount of sales for indie games just from being there. At that time it made total sense to charge [Valve’s Revenue Share %] for serving the games. Nowadays, however, and having shipped a game recently ([Game Title], [Month] 2017), I can say that it felt like putting my game on a short and furious popularity contest and lasted on "New & Popular" for 3 days before being buried into obscurity at the avalanche of new games coming out. I understand that Valve wants games to find their own audience and figure out how to present themselves attractively enough to Steam players to get sales, but if the platform is going to turn into an automated vending machine from my side, I don't see why I'm being charged [Valve’s Revenue Share %] for it. Again, I respect that Valve is putting effort into improving Steam and that costs money, but the value proposition of the platform (from our side) is massively lower than it used to be, so it would be fair that the share reflects this. | +1 | +1 | +1 | +0 | +0 | +1 | Important | Very important | Important | Important | Important | Very important | +1 | +0 | +1 | -1 | +0 | +1 | +1 | +1 | +0 | +0 | +1 | -1 | Very important | Important | Very important | Not important | Important | Important | Important | Important | Not important | Not important | Important | Not important | -1 | +1 | +1 | Not important | Important | Important | +0 | +0 | +1 | +1 | +0 | +1 | +1 | Important | Not important | Very important | Very important | Important | Very important | Important | Share contact information | Share anonymous demographic information | Share anonymized responses | 10 | |||||||||||||

Steam taking a [Valve’s Revenue Share %] cut of every sale in order to... not promote games? Have users do the work?
