Both of those indie only ideas I would be comfortable with. I understand a vast majority of indie games sell <1000 lifetime copies and Steam does have hosting costs, but Steam's policy to reduce the 30% to a smaller percentage for games that sell over 10mil/50mil feels a bit backwards to me.

I put a lot of that on how effectively Steam communicates game sales. If you do a weekly one-off sale on Steam and have a sizeable wishlist size, you will get a good burst of sales. I never had the same movement on itch, whether it was a site wide sale or one-off.
I did a joint release of an indie game on itch and steam, and over about 4 years, i got~120 buys on itch compared to ~650 on steam. My game was 18+, though, which definitely complicated things.
I just believe Steam should have a model similar to itch for indie devs to utilize.
If there is one criticism that can be leveled at Valve is indie devs dealing with the listing price and giving them a 30% cut on every sale. Hamstrings indie devs pretty badly.
Dreaded Day 1 of calorie counting and fasting. The bulk phase was fun, now it's the whatever hell this part is.
This hockey team is gutting me man.

I love hearing songs from Guilty Gear and eventually finding out their inspiration source (ex: Mince -> Iron Maiden's Sea of Madness)
One of those (beautiful) days where I got the same Guided By Voices song looping in my brain endlessly.
Having PS1/PS2 emulation on my deck has been so awesome. With a PSO private server too. This thing might be my favorite console I've ever owned.

I imagine they came up with the Delphinus and were like "nobody is gonna wanna sell this ship"
Final Fantasy Tactics Ivalice Chronicles beaten after a touch over 100 hours. First playthrough of FF Tactics. It is an incredible story, game, and experience with some bullshit difficulty spikes. I had a great, great time and am glad I wanted for this remaster to finally play it.
As much as I don't want it to happen even at all, a 3 month severance package would be fun to take advantage of.
Saw a criticism of a progressive rock band as them being "too self indulgent" - isn't that the whole point of the genre? lol
