Steam is bad for developers and publishers, but it’s good for each individual developer and publisher. If the game didn’t release on Steam, it would have fewer sales. Someone with more power or a coordinate boycott could encourage change, but right now asking a developer to stand up for themselves is asking them to be mowed down.
