    factorio’s “never go on sale” philosophy will never outlast my “never pay full price” philosophy.

    they could easily make $30 from me, but they choose $0 instead. no sweat off my sack

      I’m willing to support a game that literally set the bar for quality of software development. Their dev logs alone were worth the price.

          why are you getting downvotes? i didn’t even have any idea about any of that. now i won’t buy the game for $0.01–fuck that shit. i guess i’ll never understand the mindless blind devotion fanbois have for the objects of their affection, regardless of how shitty those people are

            Ah man that sucks, I didn’t know either. Tbh I had a looming feeling that at least one dev of this very intricate and passionate eastern indie game would be bound to have weird to despicable views on something.

      They make $++ from the “really into it” crowd, so they’re ok making $0 from you and the “mildly interested” crowd. No sweat off their sack.
