Their new pricing is not horrible, but it's pretty wonky at best
After the first wave of outrage they had to clarify that it wouldn't take reinstalls into account, which should have been clear from the beginning
Also the fact that they take money on a game install wether or not that install generated any money is just dumb, most people would rather pay more as long as they have the guarantee that they only pay AFTER having made some profits
Even with the qualifiers, it makes it super hard to make any financial projections as your profits are totally uncorrelated to the fees you'll have to pay
