They have to make money from their efforts in one way or another, otherwise they wouldn't be able to put up such games again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you are getting a free game, you already know what you're getting yourself into and as such you should not complain about it when it starts.

Do you think the developers don't want praise or constructive criticism when it comes to games that they make? Think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you get it for free and pay a lot more through the microtransactions used in the games, it's no longer free you know that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes having system good enough for both consumers and the users is a good way to go in that case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true, because it is a free game, the developers can run it anyhow they wish. If the ads are much, i either move out or stay put without complaining.

They wouldn't feel happy getting negative reviews, but that's why some of them puts hardwork to make their game exempted from others. Whereas some developers don't care, only care about the money they gain from building the game, whether bad experience for the gamer or not, they don't care.

Yes buddy, that's a modernize way of video game extortion. Any developer that doesn't care about what the people that play their games go through doesn't understand what that business is all about. You've got to get the feeling that they want to kill the games they make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt anyone who developed flappy bird knew what people wanted. he just made it on his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 I hope the day of one time purchase game comes back again. Indie gamers are doing that but it's not enough I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will really take time to change, since money have entered their minds, every developer just wants to earn from developing any sort of game even if the game is below standard.
