Garry Newman Has Some Questions

garry @garrynewman 1. Will this price ever increase? Can we get it locked in a contract? 2. How are you tracking installs on PC? 3. How do you differentiate between demos and full games? 4. Do uninstalls and reinstalls count? 5. How do you count offline installs? 6. How do you differentiate between a purchased copy and a pirate copy? 7. What systems do you have to prevent bad actors faking installs to rack up expenses? 8. How can we be assured that your tracking data is valid? 9. Are you already tracking our games usage? 10. What other data are you harvesting from our users? 11. Is this data used for this purpose only? 12. Will you track when users refund on steam? 13. Will there be any other additional taxes? Can we get it in a contract? 2:55 PM. Sep 12, 2023 58.7K Views
