There is no multi-billion dollar company behind indie games and they need to eat, pay rent, and want to live a decent life.
Hmm. My chef dont pays me for work I havent already done. First I need to do my job and then I get payed - when I did my job right. If I fail too often I loose my job. Pretty hard? Pretty normal I would say. But here all is different. Those poor guys! Damn, I have a family too and nothing to give as a prestent But now I'am the bad guy? I need to work too to live a decent life but I dont get payed befor I did that. So what is wrong with this behavior?
Dont get me wrong, ofc you have to differentiate. I preordered TpF too because I really like UG and they are worth it. But there are many many ppl out there that just "consume" everything on the marked. The last 3 games from that developer/puplisher were crap? Wayne! Sh*t up and take my money! Sry, but exactly that is adressed by the critics. This unreflected consuming that ruins the whole industry. They produce crap and earn millions - OF COURS they wont change that when they can drive limousins and live an a villa. The consumer just gives the wrong signs and complains afterwards -.-
