deathknight1728: Hero Siege (Hard as shit but fun)
While I like Hero Siege's graphics and game play, their developer is on my shit list.
Way back when, when this game was offered on one of IndieGameStand's regular sales, the game seemed pretty good, but was marred with some really irritating things like a lack of rebindable keys. Joystick support didn't work either. Meanwhile, the developer was issuing regular and significant updates on Steam, while leaving the DRM-free IGS version to wither on the vine.
In an email conversation with someone on the IGS forums, the developer's excuse was that everyone should just get the game on Steam, because Steam is so much better since it does things like stop piracy. After a lengthy back and forth with that person, the developer eventually said they acknowledged the importance of games being DRM-free, and promised updates to the DRM-free version on IGS. That was back in February.
Now, the developers have, apparently,
completely dropped support for their non-Steam versions of the game.
So yeah, I'm not bothering with that game or those devs anymore.
