Steve Troughton-SmithCapcom putting a stake in the ground and saying Resident Evil 4 for Apple platforms is a $60/€69 game, but supports iPhone & iPad 'for free’, is a good move for the App Store IMO. Developers have priced themselves into the ground for the past decade and honestly paid-upfront software needs to start going back up. I think we've all spent way too long optimizing for the people who don't want to buy our software instead of the ones who do. Expenses and the cost of living sure aren’t going down 💸
continuousorbit@stroughtonsmith - The 99¢ + subscription model killed the small developer no matter what anybody says. Yes, it changed the landscape…by cutting down all the trees and installing plastic flamingos all over. - “Pay for software” needs to be the model. Period.
