  1. Charging a one time payment of $15 for a full game, promising no extra charge for any DLC, and fulfilling that promise and comitting to it even after 8 years? AAA publishers could never. This is what "listening" and being gracious to your players actually looks like.

  2. For a small mobile game, maybe, but not charging for big DLCs is bad business wise, you can't expect something like Shadow of the erdtree to be free.

  3. Oh look, reason number 982'748'949'194'718'494'673'553 to support indie devs over AAA studios.
    Need a few more reasons before I'm sure tho.

  4. I have over 3000 hours on Stardew Valley and still can't get THAT ONE secret achivment. Who knows, knows. The history of making this game is amazing and full of hardships. I bought Stardew Valley cooking book and it's really great. Now I'm waiting for Haunted Chocolatier.

  5. Bought Stardew years ago for the Switch so my daughter and I could have a couch co-op game that was actually fun to play together. 1 month later bought a third copy so my wife could play with us. Recently bought 2 more copies on steam so we could play 1.6 together. $75 well spent.

  6. That man is such a darling of the industry its crazy. On top of that his game is great im really hoping haunted chocolatire (the new game) is just as good if not better than stardew! We really need that love in the industry

  7. Like Capcom: "We listen our fans, please give us your feedbacks" but we all know that they never listen, look at Resident Evil games…no classic costumes, no new modes, no minigame, no fix on RE3R…lol
