I would call it a complete game that was finished a long time ago but has a passionate developer who provides free content updates. It’s definitely not a live service game, as there are no microtransactions and the updates are free.

Calling Stardew unfinished is hilarious.

Ah, if only I could read more than one sentence at a time…

Keep in mind that a large portion of players don’t have it installed on Steam and use the Battle.net launcher instead (like me).

Oh true, the partially delivered PvE content that was canceled almost immediately after releasing after a year delay.

Yeah I realize that looks dumb now. I was thinking of microtransactions that affect gameplay. You know, the important kind.

My argument is don’t buy them. It’s really that simple.

I believe new players also have all the characters unlocked immediately.

I did. You also had to pay $40 to play the game though.

There is not anymore. All characters are unlocked for free.

They’re not essential to playing the game. Just don’t buy them.

What macrotransactions? The game is free and the only this that’s monetized is cosmetics.

He surely has enough money from Stardew to live comfortably for the rest of his life. Why would he need to publish anything?

Yeah they just stopped updating it and let all their RTS talent go to other companies to make their own games.

The one aspect is slightly unintuitive, but mostly you tap and drag like you would on any mobile interface. There is no"virtual mouse" or anything crazy. It’s wild to me that people would be frustrated out of playing because of the interface.

In that case you tap the card and it pops up to show the text. Still pretty intuitive. I guess if you’ve never played a deck building game or RPG it could be confusing?

I’ve always just dragged the cards rather than using successive taps. It’s pretty intuitive in my opinion. I would have never thought to call that a virtual mouse…

Deselecting a card without casting it can be a little tricky, but you can usually tap another card or something without causing an issue.

There’s no virtual mouse, are you thinking of the wrong game?

Agreed, I gave up on beating gold stake when I would lose most of the runs on the first couple antes. I think it’s good to have a brutally difficult mode, I hope they didn’t go overboard on easing it up, but it was good to ease up a bit.
