      you’re moving the goalposts.

          you never mentioned ‘quality’ until you wanted to disqualify data that didn’t support your position.

              You know it and you are simply arguing in bad faith

              this is rich coming from someone who is moving the goal posts.

              I know actual game developers who released their games for free or under a pay-what-you-want model. They refuse to do so again because they can’t support themselves by doing it. I am a game developer and I won’t release my games for free because I need to support myself. There is all the data you need.

              the plural of “anecdote” is not “data”

                  your insistence on relevance is giving the lie to your denial about moving the goalposts.
