    Quoted from Chambahz:

    You buy a game when the code is “good enough” for you, then celebrate every time an update is released, improving it further.

    Exactly what I did before buying my Metallica. Code was acceptable to me after the CIU modes were added. Each update after that was unexpected but greatly appreciated. Thank you Lyman and associates.

    Quoted from sethi_i:

    So, it sounds as if games like TWD, BM66 and MET got the most improvements after initial release. Do good initial sales lead to putting additional resources into them? Or is it the opposite, a poor selling game needs to be improved to boost sales? But from what I see, there's no such thing as a poor initial selling game (unless it's some fringe one-off creation).

    Those games have one huge thing in common, the coder.
