Well why didn't you start 6 months ago. It's not my problem. I paid full price. If you wanna be left the fuck alone sell games for $15 and take your time no one will bother you. When you start asking $80 a game the price sets expectations. Devs lack of planning is not my problem as a consumer.

Gamer who doesn't understand how gamedev works gets mad at guy telling them they don't get how gamedev works, demanding their treats get here, right now anyway after being told it actually takes a bit to make. News at 11.

Yeah, you're probably right, the video game you personally made is probably better and I'm just lazy. BTW I demand 80 hours of brand new content to be released next week, and it better be cutting-edge, uniquely interesting, bug-free and $4.99, or else you're a lazy dev, too.

It's genuinely funny watching these people learn absolutely nothing when slapped in the face with hard facts.
