Interesting!

I’d say that unknown devs benefit simply because people will be far more likely to take a risk/gamble on their game.

You could (and I would, although I am not reliant on income from game sales so I can’t say it’s from anywhere other than an idealised position of privilege that I do so) argue it’s better for indie developers, too, as they now have a feedback loop about what didn’t work in their games that they previously didn’t have.
