Discount
Please do a better discount than 10%. Really want this game but not paying this much for an indie EA title.

Thanks!

Considering the devs previously stated they weren't planning on discounting the title much if anything, I'd say take the 10%.

Otherwise, I guess you'll have to wait.

Or you could just support the game and buy it as it is, I mean it's already been discounted what more do you want dude? 5$? 3$ yeah no.. I f you really 'wanted" this game then you would buy it at the price they KINDLY gave us. Not to mention you have ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ over 300 game's in your library! what the hell do you need a discount for anyway's lol?

How would you know that if you don't own the game your self? Watching a 5min video on youtube doesn't count. For all you know this is a good deal but hey you're money do what you want to do. :catpaw:

A video for me does count. And the games that are on sale right now are much more appealing then this game imo.

well yeah no ♥♥♥♥ GTA5 beats this in a heart beat, BUT if someone "really want's this game" then they would buy it as it is not complain about a game that's still being worked on and developed. They already droped the price, should be good enough. No a video does not count, that's like saying I was at the moon but just watched a fu$king video of the moon...

Your Choice. I Have To Say Personally This Is One Of My Favorite Games, But It Is In Very Early Access. If You Dont Want To Buy A Game Like This, So Be It

Thats a terrible comparison. I can agree that watching a video of some guy on the moon will be diffrent from actually being on the moon but this is a video game and by watching someone playing and showing you all the features of the game give me a great idea what I will experience in the game

I'm not saying this is a bad game, its just that the game been on my radar for the past few months but the competition with prices on some other games in this sale wins me over

And this became a troll pit. Please let this thread die as there's no point in your fruitless argument

Yes his experience not your's and nope it's pretty much the same man lol just think about it haha ;D I can understand getting to know all the features and what not but not the actual feeling of being "in-the-game" and doing stuff though but if that's not your thing, the up to you ^__^

Subnautica is a game that is still very much in development, and we don't need to bring in a large influx of players right now. When the sale price is lowered by a large margin, it tends to attract a group of people who are less willing and dedicated to giving the game a real chance. You end up with players who just tossed it on the pile of other games they are buying, mainly because it was a great deal, and many of those people either:
1. Never end up playing it
2. end up playing it for a short amount of time and posting a negative review because they likely didn't research it

And now with Steam offering refunds, there is a good chance that a large amount of people will return it, once the sale is over, just because it was a purchase made on a whim or simply out of fear of missing out on a deal.

Now, I'm certainly not saying this applies to the OP in this thread, and I know there are people who have heavily researched the game and followed its development, but just can't justify the cost when so many other games are running 50% and higher discounts. Which is fine. We hope they continue to follow the game, and maybe after some of the large content and feature updates that we have planned are added, or after the game is complete, those people will feel it is worth the money.

We just want to avoid any perception that the game itself is of lesser value then it actually is due to a really cheap price tag, and if that means that we lose sales during this Steam sale, then so be it.

Thanks Piggy, for taking the time to answer my question.

I cannot speak for others, and I have not taken advantage of the refund system.

When I say that I really want the game, is because I played 10 hours or so on my GF's account, but would like it for myself as well.

The issue is that I've had MANY bad EA experiences. So many. Cannot afford to spend 20$ on a game that might end up abandoned after a short while, like many other good promises.
