And I appreciate that don't get me wrong, the fact is that this dev is starting his career and need to gain the more he can, since this is his first game on the market.
Waiting a little bit more would have helped in my opinion, he's not NLT or some other big name in the market, so he need to gain as much as possible.
I wasn't accusing you of doing something wrong mind you, because I understand too well the problem of being unable to buy a game I like, and receiving the help from people like you is priceless, but a bit more balance between the two needs would have been better (imho of course).
