A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

If you market your game better it can "survive" outside of steam as well. I didn't hear about Ready or Not having funding issues. They didn't even announce a Steam release when they started their funding campaign.
It may result in less sales because users have to download and update the game manually. Can't deny that assumption but it's not a mandatory thing to publish on steam...
