Umm...what did they abandon?
Seen Germans and other people on this site crying about not able to get adult games from Steam? Their platform would be a option for these to buy their game without the "gov parental control" slap them over the fingers... It could as well if successful be a option for creators that can't get their work monetized on patreon due to the "paypal content cop" rule over them.
To be fair was just small animations stuff nothing that big and this is more what I heard during the time they cut the beta, but i will be honest after look more up I will take some things back, The well is just because they are new to this they made mistakes according to some stuff they release 5 other games “It's being produced by Studio FOW, and we've released 16 movies, 5 games and over 30 shorts in the few years we've been operating.”
I get what you are saying and I do believe this is “I don't care problem”(the coin) if that was the only thing. But again that's not the only thing.
If they start sell their game on their own site offering "crypto" as a way to pay for that game. It doesn't breach anything with Steam afaik. Steam just disallow games to have any ingame mechanics that deal with NFT and crypto. There is no such options inside the game.
The games referred to there are the flash games they posted on Newgrounds:
They damned if they do and damned if they don't right? If they had released what was initial back then people would been crying "is this all we got for our money". When want to do better and go bigger make use of those funds you have people go nuts over that too. Same people that is happy to jerk off to games that get updated with a 5 minute update every other month or so on this site.
If I get your argument right I will disagree with you. What was in EA should be the beta and after some updates they should put on EA. Now don't forget they set an expectation bar, this time we were not talking about a guy that you sometimes throw 5-10 on patreon close to any major update or you came here to see if there was any update. And again this is just one part of the problem.
GoG will release the EA or just the full?
Afaik they did look into Unity before they moved onto Unreal. Should they just released something half arsed in Unty to get it over with? If you look at the REALLY high earners on Patreon when it come to adult games and what they actually put out of updates and frequency you will find FOW come out rather good in comparison tbh. When you see people like Adeptus Steve pull close to 120k a month, it becomes more than some guy throw 5-10 once in a blue moon his way.
Ok let's believe that you don't get what I was saying. The question was will GoG get the EA or they will have to wait for the full game.
They had some beta testing before the EA. So exactly what are you wanting? Their solution with early access and release chapter chunks at a time rather than have people have to wait for the game to be completed seems reasonable middle of the road solution, where it give room for players/customers to give feedback along the way. It's easier to do changes underway than have to go back and start flick and patch on things afterwards.
I haven't used Mega with this game, but just in general I've noticed I will frequently have issues with Mega on bigger downloads unless I use Edge (my regular browser is Firefox). So I try to use Nopy (much more reliable) but when I do have to use Mega, I use Edge for it. Just something to try.
and neither is how much funds they raise on KS, make in steam sales, or how much a creator pull on Patreon, or whatever monetizing going on. A consumers problem is the choice to buy or not to buy something. Or pledge support, or not.
