Secret of Monkey Island SE profits

Maybe i should be at LucasArts, but since this forum is more lively I will try it here.


How much profit does Lucas gets when I buy Monkey Island SE via Steam?
Also with the classic adventures. Because some part of the profit is for the people of Steam right? And the rest for Lucas?

I ask this because I want Lucas to earn as much as possible (Im not going to buy same games over and over again for the same platform but i will buy them for different consoles.)

Also for Tales of MI how much profit does TTG gets from it through Steam?


Greetings

    I hope the Steam folks drown in their own greed after screwing Europe with their stupid pricing policy and repetedly fail to explain or at least make an statement as to why it's, in some cases, 60% more expensive to buy a game in Spain than the same game in the USA or the UK.

    doubt Valve takes much profit. As many games from smaller companies are cheaper on steam than their own website, and why would they be that if Valve takes a huge cut? :)

    One thing is sure, i want all my games in one place, so i hope we an preorder Secrets of monkey island se :D

    The whole concept of Steam is that it's cheap for companies and independents to release games for it. I don't know how Steam release fees work, but based on what I've read about what the three console makers charge companies to release download games, Steam has GOTTA be charging less than XBLA.

    I'm not happy with either, as I want to own a physical copy of the game. but since that's unlikely, I guess I'll have to pick a version.

    I'll probably only play the remake once. Sadly, I have the script mostly memorized, making replays pretty pointless.
