Compromise: Just Charge $5 For Now. Once 2.0 is Out, Then Charge $12

[Rentahamster]

Yeah, I bet if SE didn't say where the game was at, this thread wouldn't have existed

Yes. I still would have made it. The same cost/benefit analysis done by all consumers happens once there is an actual price affixed to any given product. This game is no different. The genesis for this thread was the announcement of billing + the BG interview, not what you assume it is.

They took Yoshida's Words and twisted it to make it sound like something else.

Nope. Yoshida said what he said. I didn't take anything out of context. You'll notice that I didn't even use that particular quote of his at all in my OP.

Also notice that I referred specifically to the Blue Gartr interview and the SE official answer about how they are approaching the situation of the perception that customers are playing full price for an incomplete game.
