How to buy this game to support the original creators?

I am thinking something like "acquiring" (yo, ho) this version, and then just paypal the main writer €60?

I already have an idea of what email to send it to, and I am pretty sure the dude will correct me on what mail to use for if I ask on that adress.

my perspective is that there's no ethical consumption under capitalism. personally I see no value in picking these particular devs for a charitable dono when virtually every device I use has mining blood inside... feels kinda gamer-y. i think any action against capitalism outside of participating in a very large-to-massive social movement is wasted energy - just doesn't have any impact. I have a couple of targeted US-based charities I routinely donate to do my little bit. not saying it's the best or more ethical choice. just a simple principle that's a lot easier to stick to, without constantly trying to keep up with the latest capitalist atrocity-du-jour.

If your pet cause is fairness to game developers, then see if there's some kind of legal fund you can donate to. maybe?

Is this a joke post? Because it sounds like it. You made an account under capitalistic regime of a private company such as Valve, you have 3 perfect games which means that you most likely have more than 3 (I can't see them), that means you gave Steam their cut they take from those games purchase and now you are talking bad about others buying games on Steam? Like, are you even for real? In a perfect world, you wouldn't have your account in the first place, and would be complaining about this "issue" somewhere on reddit or wherever your hivemind originates from. I mean, I am just curious, do you think these video games are supposed to be made by the government machine?

Do your due research and maybe understand the difference between this particular title and its creators/publishers and other titles. Big difference
