Sometimes I forget they even allow this. Finish the fucking thing before adding extra shit. How can an unfinished thing even have extra shit?

It's like buying a tiara for your fetus, before you even buy a crib.
ALSO, MICROTRANSACTIONS = DLC.
Same for Wube and Factorio, and Re-Logic and Terraria. I think we're on the 8th "final patch" for Terraria.
Terraria is a truly extreme case, the developers truly just can't stop making updates.
Factorio isn't amazing in this way, but the developers have a lot of integrity - they delivered their plans for 1.0, released some good extra updates, continue fixing bugs, and went to work developing paid DLC. I do suppose the DLC will come with a major update to the base game, but that's also because they found they needed to make changes and additions for the expansion.
Motion Twin are finally wrapping up the updates of Dead Cells after the 35th (!) one. While they're working on a board game and an animated series. Now, granted, they released several paid DLCs, but that didn't stop them from pumping out free updates with content in between them
I'll give them a pass. The game has been very playable at nearly every pre-release right up through the present. Granted, for a while there was no mid or late game, but what was on offer was relatively bug free and fun.
Minecraft has been going on this model for over a decade, too.
And people give it shit for some reason, there's always people claiming the latest update ruined the game. MY GUY, you can literally choose what version of the game you want to play from within the launcher. Which is another underrated feature more games should have. Especially like minecraft does it.
Capitalism makes great games.
people make games. capitalist extract wealth from the working class.
People give companies money for games they want to buy.
