The tiers work in the opposite direction though, only huge titles will likely qualify for lower % takes while indies barely scraping by are getting hit for the full 30%.
Again this is only a minor point of criticism, I love valve in general. But man it would be so easy to add something like a "15% on the first $50.000 in sales" exception, wouldn't cost Valve all that much and would help small indie teams immensely.
