  • I can’t help but feel like they’d make more money if they charged like $20 annually. I’d have signed up years ago just to support them. But considering that…

    • I play most games without modding them at all.
    • Quite a few of my more heavily modded games have Steam Workshop support, which doesn’t require a second application, updates automatically with the game itself, and is free.
    • Most of the rest of the games that I mod have maybe one or two mods installed and don’t get frequent updates, so waiting for slow downloads is an annoyance more than a problem.

    …that leaves like one or two games a year that would meaningfully benefit from what they’re offering, which makes it hard to justify spending so much. Plus, intentionally degrading the free service in ways that don’t save them money doesn’t entice me to pay for premium so much as make me resent it. So they’ve made $0 from me.
