Aaaannnnd you're avoiding the bit where Palmer offers the game free. Imagine trying to white-knight the idea of getting something free when it was offered as free.
Just imagine right, having something offered to you for free, but then the ending, the part of the story that matters most, is withheld from you for over half a year. And then imagine, people like you, trying to say that asking for something for free, when it was offered for free, is somehow insulting. You have to hold developers to some standard otherwise they could just never release Ch.19 and fall back on your excuse of "haven't you downloaded the others for free?" Yes I had, but that doesn't change anything does it?
Just wait your turn poor person = your entire argument
