Concerned Ape (Stardew Valley): I swear on the honor of my family name, i will never charge money for a DLC or update for as long as I live. Screencap this and shame me if I ever violate this oath. (x.com)

Agreed. If CA charged a few bucks for the 1.6 update, I'd have bought it without hesitation. Same with 1.5.

The best example right now is Factorio. There's a new expansion coming out in October. It isn't free, but it adds basically an entire new game on top of an already excellent and fully fleshed out game. I'm gonna buy it the day it goes on sale without question and without waiting for reviews.

Then there's crap like Starfield where they added 1 mission for $7.

Slay the Spire is current $8.50. Starbound is $4.50 (both are on sale rn for future readers) if you're looking for a space game.

    Factorio DLC is going to break global productivity for a month when it's released in October.

    Every single engineer and factorio fan I know have taken that day off. Nothing is getting engineered for like 4 days minimum

    I can't actually recommend Starbound. It's a game sure. And made by an indie team. But it's past is stained. The game is also hollow and devoid of true substance and this is clear after less than 5 hours of gameplay.

    FTL is a much better space themed indie masterpiece.
