I love the idea that the dev should be grateful someone takes his game and hands it out for free logic that suggests if someone steals your car or robs your house you should thank him? :)
What?
It is clear that you did not understand my message.

Grateful to this forum and its users for testing their game when and giving it fame when it all started. Where do you think their subscribers came from? From Steam maybe?
No, from this forum.
And for that he has to be grateful.

In addition, there is no more word lost about posting the public version after say 2 weeks instead of a month, which was something that should happen once the leaking directly on day one stopped. You catch more prey with sugar than with vinegar and going back on what was at least tentatively announced earlier, is not sugar.
To put it bluntly, Slowburn´s PR leaves a lot to be desired, this whole affair could have been handled with more finesse and deftness by both sides.
Thanks someone understood this.

I think it's not that difficult for the developer to understand.

he makes less than his country's minimum wage doing this game. He can make more stocking shelves at a supermarket. How is it difficult to understand that him not wanting the game leaked is not him "being greedy" it's him "trying to make this a viable job?"

He's not milking fans, an update comes out on time every month, and the previous one becomes free. That's the sign of a good dev worth supporting.

Idk what is all the fuss about, small indigames to AAA games get cracked and can be downloaded on pirate websites and those companies still make millions if not more off their games, piracy has always been there and always will people just need to accept it, plus I also agree on it boosting sales, because if the people love it they will support it if they can afford it.

Moralizing pirates are absurd. How many games have you downloaded without even thinking about the devs financial situation for even a second? But you're so kind and understanding for taking a stand one time out of a hundred, right. Your medals are in the mail, and the statue will be completed next week.

So, if their was common ground and ignoring demands, what timescale would you accept and what would you feel is reasonable? Does a common ground even exist

Personally, I feel like 1 or 2 weeks is reasonable. If someone isn't tempted to buy it because they have to wait 1-2 weeks then a month won't change that. Either someone is impatient with money to burn or they aren't. People who pay get to feel special and enjoy an early release and everyone else doesn't have to wait an entire month. Even if the public release was a year's delay I'm never going to pay for it.

I want to once again support the developer. You just don't realise that very rarely in such long projects developers consistently release good updates. Culture Shock, Long Short Story, Ashley's Hot Wife, and many other projects, release updates in half a year - a year. And if the developer explicitly states that he is comfortable with this scheme, then why should he get in the way, he will just burn out and will not release anything in the end. As for me it is better to get free releases every month than to get one today and then see the sign "Abandoned".

The absolute malding and seething happening in this thread because the game hasn't been leaked is hilarious. Yall really in here mad as fuck you can't jack off to this game for a few weeks huh?
Is just pettyness really, they claim to be hardcore pirates but the instant the dev protects his income they cry, having to wait a month isn´t the end of the world

You people are still going :cautious:

If you're convinced the piracy legitimately damages income, what are you doing here in the first place, exactly? You're fine hurting everyone who has stuff leaked, why? You're just trying to make yourself look good, which is extremely pathetic to try to do anonymously online.

Wilwock, you understand what this site is, right? What you say is very funny, it is like talking about sin inside a brothel, besides, I am almost sure that you downloaded a game from this site that may be pirated or not, what do you think?
