Generally when you see people advocate for not having to pay for things like that, it’s because they want to do away with currency and the concept that a living is something that needs to be earned rather than something everyone gets as a basic right. Plenty of people make art, including games, without a profit motive, so it’s not unreasonable to think that enough games would be made if everyone had way more free time and games were all made for free.
So game devs shouldn’t get paid?
Fuck big publishers and their stupid decisions, but the actual devs and indies deserve to make a living.
Money should not exist. So, yes, every game should be free.
But in the mean time, I only pay for indie games.
Ah I see, your one of those peeps.

Exactly ! My comment was quite unclear, but what I meant is everything should be free ; games included.
