    I’ll let you figure it out yourself. Hint: maybe a company that made 17 billions in a singlke year selling others people works could offer a bit more of the profit to those who actually created the product.

      I mean, yeah, I would also like to live in a socialist world. However, we’re not, so we need to judge companies on a grade of existing world, not on a grade of luxury gay space communist one. And in our capitalist reality, it’s really unreasonable from a capital to not go for more capital. We also don’t judge companies by revenue per employee, at all, it’s not a thing that we do in a capitalist society. We sometimes congratulate them on winning at capitalism if the ratio is particularly high like in this case.
      That aside, Steam is a product and a service, and 30% is very reasonable market rate for products and services they produce.
