Yes. They sued Valve with allegation that they are too successful by providing good service. Sure 30% is too much for some developers, but solution is quite simple... don't sell on Steam. Problem solved. Go to Epic, GoG, bunch of others. Hell every company now has its own launcher and store.

Nah, it's mean old valve making it so people aren't flocking to publish their games on UPlay.

What's saddest of all is the fact they are willing to throw millions on this litigation instead of spending that money on improving the service. They claim it's for the good of all users, but their actions tell different story.
