OH. So this is important. This will especially hit Kickstarted games, because what you've done there is tidly bundled every single hardcore fan up into a bucket Valve doesn't treat as real people (because you gave them keys).
It's a good change overall, but it DOES impact stuff.

There's probably a good argument that if you really, really like a game, and see it being Kickstarted? You might want to not back it if they don't NEED need your support. Instead, buy it on launch. You'll end up helping them more that way, if you were only backing for a game key.
But also Kickstarter is turning into some weird coinbro shit? so I guess this caution may cease being relevant soon, heh.
Oh well. They were nice while they lasted. I guess. Boo.

If you're trying to work around this as a Kickstarter game maker, you can try to give people DLC keys instead of the game itself, or you could gear to give them console keys (but that has SERIOUS PITFALLS) or itch, but
good luck with that. Fans kinda just want the game on Steam.
