@McMongoose @lunarised i mean money and success are the whole point. :youmusip:

it helps if you don't work for a line go upper. pre-tencent klei, wube, ludeon, being self-owned only have the obligation to make sure the next cheque clears. they don't have sales because they're not in a hurry to make line go up for a report, so they just wait for you to save up and buy the game. which is largely what people do.

thor (pirate software) does seem to like regional pricing, but ymmv.

big tech/publishing likes to overhire. a lot. a lot of gamedevs in general love overhiring.
