Disclaimer: I used Steam once.
Has anyone done any research into the quality of these 18,000 titles? What kind of uptake there is, how many purchases/downloads, etc. ?
Anyone who gives steam $100 can upload as many "games" any "game" they want. There is no quality control.
It's a common scam to throw some free assets together to make "collect coin" and then swap the coin asset out with a stick and call it "collect stick" and then swap out the stick with a brick and call it "collect brick" then upload all of them to Steam and bundle them into a 50 game pack with a sale price of $100 (95% off!) and hope someone buys the collection thinking they're getting 50 real games at a steep discount.
Here's an example. It's a 33 game bundle for 99% off its original price of $8,579! They're all the same "game" with different free assets made by the same dev who uploaded 167 versions of this "game" to steam on March 28, 2024 and priced each around $200.
Clarification: It's $100 per game. And they give it you back once your game earn $1000. https://store.steampowered.com/sub/163632
