      It’s an amazing game and addicting once you get into it. If you think Quake and Devil May Cry sounds like a fun combo, this is the game.

      Just be aware the game isn’t finished yet. The last few levels are missing.

      I just bought it based on this alone. Early-access and FPS games aren’t typically my thing, but I like the cut of this person’s jib.

    This does not seem like my kind of thing, but by golly I respect that something fierce. Buying a copy just to support the dev.

    It’d be nice to live in a utopia where everyone who could afford to, paid for products they could just take, but let’s be honest, that is not reality. I respect the devs’ willingness to donate their work nonetheless.

    Of course this works well enough in some places. I’ve been to amazing communities in Europe where they have “honesty shops” where you just take what you need and leave some cash behind and the owner just comes by to collect and restock once a day.

    Not that anyone wants them, but I’ve had the same policy about my books. They got “leaked” by a friend that put them in his soulseek folder. Doesn’t bother me at all

    I mean good for him.

    But very few pirates actually can’t afford shit. It’s mostly people in shitty regions and freeloaders who don’t pay for anything.

      You have to be playing Devil’s advocate for the sake of it because every significant study done on the subject shows that piracy has a positive or at worst neutral effect on the industry.
