If they release something people want on a platform that nobody owns then that is obviously gonna piss some people off, and in the same way not exactly help them push their sales much. It is a relationship between consumer and developer and both ends have to do their bit. Well then we have the other end of the spectrum what with people who behold developers as almighty gods. Not to have some wanker stroke their e-dick on neogaf. If that was the case every single game ever made would be down the shitter before it was even released.Īnd to answer your question at the end there, i imagine that most people who work with games, and especially indie titles, do it for the love of making games. It's not like he's going to damage Trine 2 by slagging it off online. You either buy the game or not and that's really the only factor. In the end, it's not really your concern as the consumer what technical difficulties or what shitty publishing deals you may use as an excuse. A good game is a good game and vice versa, and the same goes for distribution. You can't just go "but they worked SO hard making that game, how dare you not appreciate the effort!?". No matter how hard a developer works on a game it still has to be a good game and made available in a way that it reaches the consumer. Wow, entitled much?Well then we have the other end of the spectrum what with people who behold developers as almighty gods.

With no problem releasing it on WiiU, eh? I strongly doubt that. I'll be supporting good devs doing good work. If people keep on going down the entitlement path, bitching and moaning about what they're owed and not supporting the little guy, there's no wonder you only get the same old giant fluffy sequel after sequel from big publishers and crappy knock-offs from little guys. Makes you wonder why any of them do it at all, especially the little guys. They do on average 12 hr days for months, sometimes YEARS, just so somebody can shit all over their work. You really have no idea what issues they encountered porting it to any particular platform, do you? (Neither do I) But you just assume that these hard working developers are somehow keeping something from you that's OWED to you and now you're going to boycott them (and likely bad-mouth them across the interwebz, as many of Generation Entitled do).ĭevelopers work very hard to give you these experiences. They just don't deserve my money.Wow, entitled much?
