I tried the game now, and honestly its really well done, UI, music, AI artwork, all is really well made.can we first get the hostility against AI tempered down?
at this point it's becoming a venn diagram with so many overlaps i dont want to point at AI being point of contention.
i've seen other devs paywall AI content that players are happy to fork money over. NTR phone does the exact same thing with patreon code. other games paywall updates for limited times like BtW, Netorase Phone, etc.
non-game AI artists now also have content paywalled on patreon. e.g.You must be registered to see the linksYou must be registered to see the linksdespite having twitters with free AI content.
as far as I read into it, it just seemed like the paywall was as just egregiously restricting, considering the early phase of development?
but damn, the dev took this personally.
i'm feeling second hand embarrassment and cringe. damn.
the other dev was unmistakable just sincere.
i hope they do better and improve on the paywall implementation.
sometimes you just need a wakeup call.
- From a player perspective however, its a shitshow, sorry just being honest, I cant play 2 min before some line pops up "premium content" which im not able to click. And this happens throughout the game 10+ times.
- This just means as a new player, who want to see if this could be a good game, he can't even enjoy it, and find out, since he is getting paywalled messages every 2-3 min. And that feels like a very bad player experience.
I do hope this changes as the game gets further into development, and some paywall is ok, perhaps, but this was just on the next level.
Just me two cents anyway
