Just like the title says, why wouldn’t valve give game developers, who refuse to bring their games to the deck, an incentive to come over. Companies love money. I think if valve told the game developers “hey, if you bring your game to the steam deck, we will lower our 30% fee to 25%” or some shit like that. Do you all think this would work?
I don’t know what you mean by ‘bring your game to the deck’. How is it any different from listing it on Steam? Anyway to answer the question I think it’s because they actually have a decent platform that’s worth the cost for most developers. If you start conditionally lowering prices you also create an extra incentive for people to hold off putting their games on steam in the hope of getting a special deal.
