It's like buying a tiara for your fetus, before you even buy a crib.

ALSO, MICROTRANSACTIONS = DLC.

Early Access can be easily abused. That's why I don't bother with it at all.

They need a category for long term alphas 5+ years

[–] ChillDude69@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 1 year ago

That would also be a good option, to reduce some of the problems involved in the category.

Transactions = more money for Steam

Disrupt this incentive loop (somehow) and then we can all have nice things.

I wanted to challenge this but I can't think of a single early access that I have that tried it, I can only think of ARK and they got roasted for it, even more so when people discovered that ATLAS was a reskin of ARK.

I think they're talking about emperyon galactic survival. They never finished the game, but took it out of EA, and now they just sold a story based DLC when the main game doesn't even have its story completed yet...

ARK has a whole ass sequel and the base game is STILL horribly unoptimized AFAIK. To be fair, I’m on linux, but that’s hardly an excuse when like 95% of other titles work just fine!

[–] yamanii@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Don't worry, ARK runs like ass anywhere, it's so intrinsic to the game that the remaster also runs like ass.

[–] unreasonabro@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (4 children)

wonder if steam gets 30% of all that too

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Any transaction through steam as far as I understand it.
