Ha ha, 34 percent off

[Ash vs. Himself]

These devs are kind of arrogant, huh? People are always complaining about the 33 percent off, and now it's 34 percent off? Man, I don't know if I would buy another game from a company that is so stand offish with potential customers.

He's not saying it's a ripoff, he's saying he's upset about how the devs seem a bit trollish to him.

They aren't even trollish, To be fair people demanded a bigger sale which is a insult to the work and game in it's own way, so they decided to play a bit of a joke with a 34% sale, and that also conviently made the price go below 10 dollars so people can buy it with 10 dollar cards for christmas.
EDIT: I guess it's wrong for Developers to have a sense of humor now?

I have no idea why the hell OP is so triggered about it, Also saying "overpriced" is, again, an insult to the game, specially when it's as big and lovingly crafted as Shovel Knight, With 2 years of development put in and with 2 MORE FREE DLC EXPANSIONS COMING THIS YEAR, I think that is most certainly unfair to call it overpriced.

Honestly, the way it's looking, Shovel Knight will outlive an entire console generation.

Guys, I honestly believe that they totally deserve the money I gave them, even if I had doubts at first. I loved the game, I've seen how work they have put on it and they keep making free content for us. I can certainly say they're not arrogant or ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. They have to make money anyway, so I'm completely fine with this discount. I still believe they shouldn't put any discount, the game deserves the 15$ they ask for. Even if you believe Shovel Knight doesn't deserve 10 or 15$ (we're talking about a ridiculous amount of money, some other games charge you 60$) then simply don't buy it, or if you have done so, ask for a refund. It's really simple, you don't need to go out there and "spill" their name.

You honestly said all of my thoughts about this in one, easy simple to read post, I honestly 100% with the final part, It seems this guy is shaming the developers, which is honestly just not cool.

Not to mention they've actually spent much more money making the game than they have selling it, so in my opinion it's worthmore than 15 usd

I've been waiting 2 and a half years for Shovel Knight to show up in a Humble Bundle. I'll continue to wait. It WILL happen.

It's not worth it if you're waiting that long, by then surely you have enough money to just purchase it straight from steam.

this is the problem with pc gaming, publishers spoiling kids with big discounts.

That's not exclusive to PC gaming, I remember buying games like Titanfall and Saints Row 4 for around $5 each during sales on the Xbox store. The only difference is that it does happen more often here.

Exactly, more often

Exactly, more often

But not non-existent, which is what truly matters in the end. Either way, console users will get spoiled on discounts and even the free games that are given out to PS Plus/XBL Gold subscribers (I remember games like Sleeping Dogs being given free to Gold subscribers in the past).

And you probably havent seen how consoles users act regarding free games, they basically beg and ♥♥♥♥♥ about on blogs and forums about how theyre not gonna buy certain games unless they give them away for free, its really annoying and stupid. Here and there its the same, kids gonna be kids.

True, and also you just proved my point that PC and console users can be equally spoiled in regards to deals and giveaways. But as I have seen over the years some people are always gonna be like that, even as adults. Better to just ignore them like the rest of us have, I've seen people try to reason or fight with them and they end up going crazy over it.

Edit: Now that you mention it, I did remember when people thought the Borderlands 2 collection was going to be the free game for XBL Gold some months back, and it turned out to just be a free weekend. Calling their reactions rage would have been an understatement.
