Larian’s Swen Vincke posted a tweet yesterday showing the game hitting 500,000 concurrent players, making it the third most played game on all of Steam He said that he told IT to only expect 100,000 concurrents at max.
If you’re launching on Steam you’re paying the 30% anyways.
If you publish elsewhere there’s a lot you have to build yourself, but it would allow more freedom in the way you implement it. It might also be cheaper, but that depends on the way you do things.
Really? What’s the benefit of going solo instead of paying the 30% thru steam.

I’m not suggesting they do, just that it’s a feature Steam provides. I just didn’t want to call it free as they pay for it.
Obviously 30% higher revenue per unit is the benefit of self publishing.
