You just tried to call out people complaining about the cut they take right now with the logic that leads to piss poor service (terrible take but let's roll with it)

Right now OP is getting piss poor service.

So how does A relate to B in the context of this post? You think there's worse than the current 0 percent warning and support they got, or...

Would devs do a more standard Sony/Playstation type agreement?

Something like maybe $10K per year base, and then extra to get an app certified etc? Similar cut in the end?

There are models that allow for better service- problem is they tend to be expensive for smaller devs

I hate when people make comments that assume no one will call them out on obvious BS.

I was part of Nintendo's dev program in the Wii days, grand cost was 0 dollars a year. NOA lent us dev kits worth thousands of dollars and we had direct forum access to software developers working for Nintendo.

Sony and Microsoft will do similar.

You're talking about arrangements where Sony is acting at least in-part as a publisher, not indie titles going up on their shop as is comparable.
