What do you think of Steam Direct?

Business is business - from a business standpoint, in the absence of curation, the fee has to be high in order to prevent saturation from low quality rubbish. Valve isn’t a charity and they don’t own ‘the little guy’ anything (nor do they stand to gain anything from him).

Your argument is flawed. You are assuming the ability to fork over thousands of $$$ somehow guarantees a quality game. And no one is saying Valve is a charity (especially when they are taking a 30% cut on sales).
