Get your story straight buddy.

I mean, they get to decide when it’s finished, if it’s stable and there’s enough content that people are playing hundreds of hours then they can say that that’s the basic experience and if people want more they need to pay for it, in the end it’s even worse than just not having paid DLC and increasing the price as the game gets more content and life becomes more expensive.
Not as if there was anything new to doing that, Minecraft cost about 5$ for the people who bought it as soon as it was made available, now you don’t even get the mobile version for that price.
So they should just stop development on a game that’s still considered early access and leave it in an unfinished state and start working on something else that they can charge more for and just stop working on it once inflation catches up no matter the state it’s in? That’s what you’re saying devs should do?
EA, Activision, Ubisoft don’t do it this way, instead they charge you for all extra content separately.
Maybe that’s what the Satisfactory team should do, release the game as is as being complete, not change the price and then release paid DLC that would otherwise have been updates so in the end people need to pay more to get the full game… Damn, we’re back to square one but now people who already paid for the game also need to pay for updates…
Selling the game is the devs income, if everything else costs more and you don’t increase your income you’re just becoming poorer.
Just because you’re doing office work do you believe you shouldn’t get a raise?
Well then, devs should be able to increase the price as inflation increases so the equivalent cost stays the same.
Asking a technical question at work only for people to interpret it in a completely wrong way and needing to rephrase everything after confirming with a colleague that what I wrote the first time was actually clear… How do people’s brain works?
If people realized how bad shit is about to get they would be using bombs in museums instead of canned soup.
Disco Elysium is always free, the devs got fucked and won’t get a cent from sales, everyone should pirate the game.
I resorted to splitting everything because I was burning docks, so now I’ve got four plugs taken on my laptop: a small USBC dock for one HDMI and power, one regular HDMI, one USBC to HDMI and one USBA for a four USBA hub… Which sucks because one USBC is able to handle all my needs, the docks are just shit…
I think very few people realize that it’s VW that built that infrastructure and the fact that major governments didn’t come together to set a charging standard is a separate issue.
Don’t know what people expected from a company being forced to build the infrastructure against their will, they should have had to pay a fine and a State corporation should have been created from that to create charging infrastructure and reap the profit for the government’s coffers.
Gaben be like “Sounds like a seventh yacht to me!”
And we’re spending fortunes on it (and other historical monuments) while people are starving and ecosystems are being destroyed. Good priorities right?
Stonehenge disappears tomorrow, what actual difference does it makes in the life of 99.9999% of Earth’s population?
Nah, Stonehenge and pieces of art have no real value to the general population but a shit to of value to rich people who don’t care about living beings, books can educate people.
Yeah, that’s much quicker than just unlocking the door with your fucking key, right?
If someone is locked in your car and you’re the owner you simply use the key and open the door, no need to break anything, except in a Tesla.
Yeah, doesn’t help much in case of actual emergency does it?
That’s exactly what Minecraft did…
Free then 5 then 10 then 15 and so on, all price hikes that happened while the game was still in development and had not reached 1.0. it was one of the first mainstream example of an early access game!
You just don’t want to recognize that Satisfactory today is different from what it was when it was first made available, just like Alpha and beta Minecraft weren’t the same.
But hey, I guess I’m the one that’s not arguing in good faith by pointing out that the situation is pretty much exactly the same and that the alternative is worse for all current owners.
Again, if you keep doing the same office job as before, do you refuse to ask for a pay increase and prefer to become poorer over time just because your job hasn’t changed?
