Good for him, he has the luxury of selling a bazillion copies! Most (indie) devs still need to keep the lights on 😔
Most companies charging for dlcs are AAA devs, not indie. I assure you they can afford to keep the lights on.
Wasn’t talking about AAA, plenty of indies sell dlc
The worst culprits though are the EAs and Paradoxes of the world that sell dozens of DLCs for games that cumulatively cost far more than the base game itself.
That practice doesn’t invalidate the need of extra revenue streams for smaller studios
Edit: updated original comment to make context clear
Then this isn’t about them?
Edited my comment to make it clear that I was talking about indies, I can provide some more context later if it’s still not obvious why
I feel like this is him saying exactly that - he’s acknowledging the outrageous success he’s had and saying he won’t (need to) charge for dlc ever
Probably true, it’s so funny that he has to promise his fans that he won’t charge for any bonus content even though he’s totally earned it 😆
I laud his attitude, but wouldn’t begrudge him one or two DLCs.
Evil plot twist: he has no family
I swear on the soul of my father, Stardew Montoya, you will get all DLC for one price.
The Ape family name is at stake.
I’d be happy to pay for a large price of DLC, and if that means he needs to hire a couple programmers to make it happen, im fine paying their wage.
paying for cosmetics hats, though…
