  • Well that sucks. I was really liking this game but I'm not supporting trash people with my money. Sucks for the developers working there. Refund requested and review with reasoning posted.

    I was unaware that Thomas Mahler was such a goon, bad boss, and puts out misleading press to bolster sales. I have requested a refund and will not be supporting anything he is involved in going forward.

    Despite its beautiful Ori games, Moon Studios is called an ‘oppressive’ place to work - https://venturebeat.com/games/despite-its-beautiful-ori-games-moon-studio-is-called-an-oppressive-place-to-work/ Posted May 15.

  • I also pro-rate the value of my games like this. For instance, Helldivers 2: paid $39.99 (€35,76), played 537 hours. That's $0.001 (€0,0012) or 1/10th of a cent per hour of play. Even if I add $2000 (€1.788,61) for the PC I play on that still only comes to $3.79 (€4.24) an hour.

    Hard to beat that price per hour of entertainment.

    My Steam spend over the lifetime of my account comes to $25 (€27,97) a month which is a decent monthly entertainment cost. Of course that doesn't account for additional spending on other entertainment but putting the total spent amount in perspective is definitely good to do, so thanks for pointing that out for those who need it.

    Edit: added € costs

  • Grew up in suburban midwest USA. As middle of the country as you can get. It wasn't until I moved to the Pacific Northwest of the US that, like you, I wasn't an aberration, I had just grown up around trash people.
