If you don't like it... don't buy it? Is that really so hard people? I mean look at all the mtx sales already giving streamers $0, and now you're upset that they aren't getting more for simply having an affiliate link? Just shows you don't care about content creators or the "POE Community", you only care about shitting on the game that has given you hundreds or even thousands of hours of enjoyment because you don't like a decision about game design. Your outrage at GGG is hilarious for this is hilarious, but I suppose this is just a byproduct of modern society and people thinking that they can cancel anyone they don't agree with.

Seriously, if you hate this game so much and want to praise Last Epoch or whatever other competitor on the market is then just go play that game. The sooner you get off of here and go enjoy yourself, the happier you'll be.

And yeah, I can already see the "intellectuals" going "complaining about complainers blah blah blah" as if it invalidates any of what I said. Not like I'm complaining just to complain, you guys have been making these forums and reddit into a cesspool that is difficult to enjoy visiting.

Ok idea but more transparency would be appreciated.

What percentage goes to the streamer if I buy an armour set this way? I noticed some cool sets are on sale when I was browsing (RaizQT's store for example).

But if he's only getting like 10-20% then I am out. Would rather just sub and buy a supporter pack which is a much better deal all around.

So... what percentage do streamers actually get with this deal?

I just checked and it seems like from a 42$ packs, the amount the streamer gets is:

"

KittenCatNoodle will receive $3.36 from this purchase.

About 8%... With a ratio this low it feels a lot more more like streamers are the ones doing advertising for GGG. I'd honestly consider upping that ratio substantially, since some people might skip on a personal 40$ donation to the streamer in favor of these packs.

$3.36 on a $42 purchase is insulting. I don't mean to be harsh but the economics of this makes no sense.

As a consumer I get a much better deal with a supporter pack and the streamer gets a much better deal with a $5 donation. 8% is awful. That needs to be bumped up to like 30% or more to make it feel like I am actually supporting both. I just don't see the value of this as is.

Edit: Other option is allow our favourite streamers to sell supporter packs. That would feel a lot better for the consumer (me) and also feel better knowing I am supporting the game and streamer at the same time.

You clearly haven't seen "the community" if you're rooting for those people. Good luck supporting toxicity and vegetative states of human existence with your wallets.
People like you are the enablers of that.

Oh another one without friend.
PoE community in the streamscene in the least toxic community i've seen since SC2 back in 2010.
can't believe the amount of whiner lately

If you know about economics and business, it cannot be that high, as the streamer is not the creator of said business. This is a standard affiliate % payout in any industry.

That is also a % that they would not of had, were they did not create an affiliate opportunity to get a portion of the purchase as pure profits.

The basics in business is to up you. Your potential profit percentage is to become more valuable to the marketplace. GGG has done an incredible job in this regard and thus deserve everything that they ask for.

In conclusion, they are giving streamers an opportunity to get supported, in a % off the products that GGG has created for the marketplace.

I trust this provides some clarity and understanding from a business point of view.
