How about giving us some discount ?

from Stardock Forums

The game ( aka unfinished product ) is still expensive . Reduce the price at least 25% .

I got my copy of elemental for like 25 dollars on Amazon a month ago, when the price tanked, and was dropping dollars everyday. It's back up to normal now though.

I jumped in at 1.08 and was aware of the problems.  I'd urge Stardock to increase the price of Elemental every time they improve (not FIX, but improve) the game.  I mean, why not?

Someone who wants to wait for the game to be discounted can certainly do that. But they won't be getting the free expansions.

Isn't it discrimination ?

Hmm. You think you'd have chances with filing a discrimination case because a publisher doesn't give you free stuff after the "special sale event" has ended?
I wouldn't bet money on that.  Well, maybe if you are El Presidente in your country...

On a lighter vein.. :-D

"Incremental, War of Patchik"

Disgruntled Sovereign Buyer: What do you mean patches? We don’t need no stinkin’ patches?

<sound effect>  *grrarooowwrrrrr … oinkkk* <sound effect>

The Gowachin Gods (source: Dosadi Experiment - by Frank Herbert) have mandated,

In the Gamers Tablet of Ten Righteous Commandments, that Thou Shall Not Refuse Free Patches

 till version 1.3, whereupon this game shall be as good as the Seven Deadly Sins of a Solar Empire.

Ah, I see. The game cannot be finished until...

Seven deadly sins, seven ways to win (currently only 4 victory conditions!), seven holy paths to hell...

It's an inappropriate comparison to going out to a movie or buying dinner.  You need to compare the games to other games, same market.



Entertainment is entertainment. You have the right to do whatever you like, I'm merely pointing out that you place a pretty low value on entertainment and more importantly, your own time.

I place a low value on entertainment and time?  Where from doth that conclusion arise?

 

Because I'm not willing to spend money on something I'm unlikely to enjoy?  Actually it would seem I place a rather high value on my entertainment and time because I don't waste it on things which are unfinished and unappealing.  To me obviously.  If you love Elemental good for you, but I don't see the relevance in telling me how much more 'value' you get out of elemental vs. seeing a movie.  Playing a computer game and seeing a movie are firstly, not mutually exclusive, other than that you can't (or probably shouldn't...) do both at the same time, and secondly, a bizarre comparison because going to the theater to see a movie is nominally something you only plan to do once (per movie) while playing a computer game is something you nominally plan on doing several times over the course of a year (at least).  Besides which you pay a premium to go to the theater because the theater has to exist, bricks and mortor and staff and concessions and screens and projectors and...

 

Of course you also have to have a computer to play the game, and you consume electricity while you play, but I don't see you factoring in that cost.  No, it's just 'I paid $50 and played for 2000 hours so that is 25c an hour!'.  Well that's great, but meaningless in any context other than your own personal opinion of how to value the worth of a game.
