It's best for them to hear why people feel they should not have to pay, or pay full price. Us turning and attacking each other for our POV isn't helping the situation, not at all and in fact it is just derailing the thread.
i agree with this, everyone should say what they feel, thus, i too have to say that i feel, the people who say the game should be free are offering nothing, they are just telling developers they have a game no one would pay for. The people who want a reduction may have a point, but in order to make that point they should show how the long term profitability is similar, or surpasses what they would get with a 12.99 price point.

personally i dont really think they can attract 2.6 times as many players with a 5 dollar price tag, but i admit i could be wrong. maybe 5 dollars is the magic number that makes people say screw it, ill pay that even if i dont like the game. Its a real possibility, but i think that maybe 8 dollars, feels like the perfect price point, substantially lower than people imagined, but would only require them to attract 1.3 times the amount of players who would pay 12.99.
