Well it died for like 10 minutes, not too big of a deal.
A lot of games do steam only distribution because it is easier and great for marketing. But on the case of goi it wouldn't be possible to not use steam because they use steam services for voice chat. The effort to separate voice chat from steam, just for rare and meaningless cases like those 10 minutes is a large investment of time and money(especially with a small team like Muse.) that could go towards better places.

Not as a separate version that doesn't require steam to pc though, just ps4. Also, they did say that one of the largest problems was to find a way to make the voice chat be cross-platforms. I am not actually sure if they tackled that problem yet and are just working on unity related problems.

Considering steam rarely goes down and even if they do its for a short amount of time this doesn't seem like much of an issue?
