What's the point of having the game on this forum if you can just wait for it to come out for free on another website like itchio. I thought the reason for the forum was to get it for free early it's a pirate forum is it not?
You didn't get my point. I'm not arguing about people wanting to play, I also want to play. The issue is spaming the same question on the thread over and over, when these forums already update the thread automatically when it is leaked.
Whether people spam or not, the leak is still what updates the thread. I understand people like the game, but after some point it gets frustrating to see all this spam instead actually talking about the game. And I'm one who was pretty vocal about the direction of having paywalls, not a fan at all.
Finally, while this forum does indeed provide games, it isn't only a piracy forum. There's a reason why some devs use this platform to also show their projects here and interact with fans. Some devs are cool, others not, but the appeal of the website exists for some reason, because it follows specific guidelines.
This game is going to take us a lot of money before the real real action starts
Personally I still believe a minimal pledge of 5EUR is too greedy, I already said here that a smaller pledge option and without paywall would encourage much more people to invest in the project, but it's the dev's decision I guess.
