"We've been told our games are too expensive in some countries but we've been using Steam's recommended pricing for a while. We trust Valve enough to not change this. If our games are still too expensive for you, you can pirate them until you have enough to support us."

A lot of indie games on steam still do demos actually but yeah shitty that AAA games don’t do them anymore.

Huh, I haven't run into an indie with a demo recently, but it's definitely great to hear that demos are still a thing in the wider indie scene.

The last Steam Next Fest in June had so many demos, I only had time for like 4-5. There were quite a few posts and comments (including mine) on the demos we tried.

During the many steam festivals, there will be indie games with demos.
