Please stop trying to smooth over the damage that was done. You're writing paragraphs of rhetoric speaking of their valour and humility in response to someone saying they're disappointed with these very clearly irresponsible and harmful choices that were made for a year now. You're not steering the conversation persuasively despite the efforts you have made. I've been a tremendous fan of this game and post about it a lot. I can't bring myself to join my server and play Vintage Story right now. I'm pretty upset with how this happened and how it's dealt with. This community has poor moderation policies and the terrible behavior of people suggesting things like "only cheaters would support this" and calling people R-slurs should be dealt with. This isn't the behavior of a noble group of indie game devs. This horse has been beaten to death so many times, I don't think there are even any bones left.
Cicadas Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago I have a bone to pick with the horse then. The beatings will continue until morale improves. 1

That is a pretty terrible way to improve morale. Please don't. Beating the dead horse about this topic is just going to fatigue everyone. You have your opinion. I have mine. It's time to move on.

Beating the dead horse about this topic is just going to fatigue everyone. You have your opinion. I have mine. It's time to move on. The only thing that will improve morale I think is if Anego does another announcement regarding the topic especially on forums or in game. I don't think beating the dead horse will make that happen at this point either, so what's best is to sort of just leave it unless someone comes in that doesn't understand the situation I think then we can try to explain it the best we can. Even if the situation DOES change because we beat the dead horse does that really improve the situation or is that just Anego giving in just to please us which doesn't help with trust IMO. Not saying this as anything against you I agree we shouldn't beat the dead horse in case this came out wrong. 1
Kreeate Posted 1 hour ago Report Posted 1 hour ago (edited) Here's an interesting tidbit... I, too, got caught up in the witch hunt and, uncharacteristically and impulsively wrote a support ticket to Anego, asking for a refund. In short time, I got a reply stating the following: "We will process your refund, but due to the age of the purchase your payment provider (PayPal) won't allow an automated refund. Could you please share your PayPal email address so that we can manually send your refund amount back to you? Also, we have decided to allow you to retain access to the game regardless of refund. Kind Regards" In view of that, I retracted my refund request, ultimately realizing that I overreacted, and that this whole issue is really a giant nothing-burger at the core. Yes, some things were done. Yes, those things were not okay. But ultimately... it's all okay. We'll all be fine. Keep the game. Keep enjoying it as usual. Sh*t happens sometimes. It's up to you if you choose to let it be water off the duck's back, or if you want the sh*t to stick to you. In the end, one of those two choices will smell bad. The other... business as usual.
