If they're making record profits why did they decide to come to steam?
I think their player numbers have dropped and they're trying to boost them.
I’ve been mostly out of the loop for overwatch but my guess is so that can have even more recorder profits
I shudder to think what they'll do for recordest profits
They're gonna do the profitiest profit that anyone has ever profited
I liked the part where Bobby Kotick said "its profiting time" and then profited all over the place
More money.
That's literally any of this is lol
Steam takes 30%. If they thought they could drive people to their standalone launcher they would be doing that
I don't think that is correct; Steam usually takes 30%, but I thought some of the larger publishers negotiated different (secret) rates.
It seems most likely to me that it's prep for the rest of the Microsoft deal so they can claim to regulators they aren't using their ever-growing control to choke out other platforms. Same reason they're making those promises about Call of Duty on Switch.
