Email #1 Braalio says: You guys have talked about the current state of gaming and the sheer amount of games that release. I think one way to look at the industry is this; no gamer is being ignored. With the breadth of games that are coming out on every single device even for smart watches, gamers of every type are being serviced. No one can say, ‘I don’t have a game that caters to me” and that is a huge thing to say for the industry as a win.
Email #2 Jorge says: you guys made fun on PUBG last week in that they sold 10 million copies while still in beta. I’m interested to know what you think about non-launch ready titles charging to enter the beta and continuing to charge months and months later. This is becoming a trend in “Indie” gaming and I’m frankly sick of it. I spend money on finished product. Not on half the project.
