Yes, a lot of us will buy the game again, if not thanks to a side perk of supporting the KotC2 Kickstarter, then via a Steam sale at some point when we feel the convenience is worth the cost of re-admission. Some of us may even want to give you more money regardless, as a way of supporting KotC2 (and I kinda do). That doesn't justify charging us twice, and we can pay you of our own free will, if you let us, via the eventual KotC2 KS. Achievements, which I don't care about, are not worth $20, and I would probably be feeling more positive when the Kickstarter begins if I'd received a complimentary Steam key in advance.
Given that a precedent has been established among decent developers making a late-showing on Steam, this is a no-brainer from a marketing standpoint. Do you want enthusiastic old customers primed for the Kickstarter? Here's one method of securing us. Perhaps you could even do a mass-mailing to get long-lost buyers' attention for the KotC2 KS?
From a "more work" standpoint, I don't know about others, but I am nearing the 20 download limit on your site, and I only discovered and purchased the game in 2015. That's more customer service work dealing with me and others like me when we run out of download tickets, a load lessened via complimentary Steam key distribution.
There's nothing greedy about not giving out new Steam keys for people who already bought it elsewhere.
"Given that a precedent has been established among decent developers making a late-showing on Steam"
If that's even true, that's pretty dumb. Entitled gamers once again whining about not getting stuff for free...
I'll see how long it takes me to finish the demo with my limited time nowadays and then going to buy it, discounted, as kickstarter bonus or at full price, it's certainly worth it!
It's an assumption I'm making based on other Kickstarters, but I very well could be wrong that he intends to include them at a reasonably modest tier.
If someone were to support the KS at or near the tier equivalent to what KotC2 will sell for on release day, I would hope a Steam key for KotC1 would be included. Many KS supporters will be old KotC1 direct-purchasers, some of whom will already be displeased about not having received a complimentary Steam key. Not issuing Steam keys before the launch of the KS will hurt KS enthusiasm (and exposure: the aforementioned mass mailing would be the first many veterans have heard of the sequel being close to release). Not providing complimentary KotC1 keys at a modest support tier would most likely also have a negative effect.
I don't need a Steam key. Whenever possible, I don't even launch games I own on Steam through Steam, so the addition of achievements mean nothing to me. Seems to me this is simply the smart thing to do with the KS/successor coming up.
I hear you, but I don't get why it's so important. Most of my games aren't in my Steam library, I have no issue with that. Plus, preparing the KS itself and replying to everyone on multiple forums is already a tonne of work. Today I feel angry with Microsoft as I've been trying so many times to install the Win 10 1903 update, spending many hours, all in vain...
Sure, I will send an email to all the buyers and forum members.
Righto, I've just reset the counter for everyone who was at 17 downloads and above. Please send me a line at enquiries@heroicfantasygames.com if you need your counter to be reset at any time.
I don't get what's the point of saying something like that. Is a personal attack on a game developer likely to make the developer more amenable? Plus, apart from monks, almost everyone is greedy and selfish to some extent, regardless of what political ideology they support, IMO.
Thank you for your support r47926. I'm glad you like the demo!
I will certainly consider it. Just need more time to prepare everything for now. Cheers all!
