So what it went from $20 to $35? Game has been out for a long time and updated quite a bit in that time. Also if the devs don't want to put it on sale... that's their decision 🤷♂️
They don't do any of the other bullshit other big game companies do, and $35 isn't even close to the $60-70 other games with a much lower playtime ceiling charge.
Without actually reading the content itself, I'd hazard it probably wasn't great for the dev to go off, but I understand how it could be incredibly annoying to have a bunch of people online crying about a small price increase for. A game they likely already owned.
Actually only went from 30-35. I think the 20-30 was exiting early access. Regardless, I have 200 hours in the game and $30 (or now $35) is worth every penny.
I thought all of this went without saying, so I didn't. That's just stuff I personally dislike as a consumer. Nothing egregious about it.
It's how the douchebag thinks it's okay to treat other people is what turned me off of ever giving them business.
