Yep, correct. Steam and Gog charge a provision of 30% on every sale.
Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo als charge this 30% on Top of that they chage a toll for releasing your game. And they charge you if you want to play online with the console you already payed.
Epic is not a good comparison here because they are subsidized by chinese money.
Tencent is a very prolific investor as has been pointed out. The way this is phrased also comes across a bit xenophobic. Please keep that in mind when commenting further. Thanks
Steam and GOG also take 30%. Nintendo, Microsoft, Google, and Apple too for that matter. The only exception is Epic who takes IIRC 12%?
FWIW the Steam cut is lower for games that sell well. It’s probably below 25% for BG3 overall.

Sorry mate.
I did not intend to be xenophibic.
Let’s just state that the money comes from the same un- democratic country that also brought us Tiktok
You know all these companies have investments from the same Chinese company, right?
Valve and CDPR have (significant) investments from Tencent? link please!
