So you opened another can of worms.
I would be very glad if we would stop with game sales altogether. Instead, add option to support the developer and platform. Completely unrelated to the amount of people and hours played.
Just download the game (ideally through P2P), enjoy it, 'donate' if you like it, however much you like.
For online games, you have a pool for keeping servers alive, if it runs out, open-source it, and let users with the maintenance.
Like I would have donated much more to Terraria than to Devil May Cry 5.
