And they think people would be happy with that? After the Google and Apple App Store drama? Think ~48% is a bit too much.
Especially, like what the article said they complained about the 30% fee at the App Store's. Why don't they set a good example?
And thus the platform will die before it has even taken off.
Is Horizon Worlds doing so well that this makes sense? Doesn’t this disincentivize content creation?
I do think it's fair to say that the value add of Meta's metaverse marketplace is certainly more differentiated and unique than what the Google + App Store provide, so it doesn't seem like a crazy cut short-term, but should quickly fall as there is more competition in the space
Shitty, but fwiw it's smaller than the 70-80% cut that Roblox takes.
You’d think they would take nothing to help hasten it’s popularity.
