It literally either goes back to the consumer or back to the game developer.

Why are you defending it going to Valve for no reason?

Or, more likely, the publisher. But, that’s beside the point.

The average Joe Gamer doesn’t benefit from the developer paying less in sales fees.

  As it has been demonstrated when Epic tried the “developers pay less fees here” approach, the average Joe Gamer doesn’t benefit in any way whatsoever. Your premise of the savings being passed down doesn’t exactly pan out.
  
  Oh really? Please do point me to the study you did where you gave 15% more revenue back to developers and then assessed their output quality.
  
  Claiming that having the store take 15% less cut of revenue will have no effect is a quite frankly flat out absurd claim to make.
