    Superheroes can’t permanently solve stuff because then they’d have nothing left to fight and the comic would end.

    In the real world the Joker would have ‘accidentally’ died in custody a long time ago, Mr. Fantastic would have us all driving cheap electric cars powered by arc reactors made by Tony Stark, and we’d be livimg a life of gay space communism.






















  • IIRC Gog takes 30% but not sure we can count them owing to what they distribute.

    The only actual competitor store (i.e. not reselling steam keys) at present is Epic with its 88/12 split after a million in sales, and as far as I know it hasn’t been profitable since it opened in 2018, despite straight up giving away product and buying exclusives to try and build a base, so not really the best argument.

    Obligatory LOL if we’re going to seriously note either the EA or Ubisoft stores in this discussion. MS probably falls into that pile too but tbh haven’t looked into them much.
