Hold Your Own <-> The Infected

[Sir Bowen 🐉]

Dear Devs (Savare & Sorella),

instead of working at your titel Hold Your Own released into early access in 2017, it is a great idea to make a new company and bring out nearly the same game with +3 years of development named The Infected in 2020 in early access to make money again.

Am I right in the assumption that the 2017 title "Hold Your Own" is no longer being worked on but will continue to be distributed by Steam to make a dollar or two?

THATS NOT WHAT EA IS FOR.

Nowadays you are well advised to write a plausible explanation instead of deleting the post without any comment.

Happens far too often I'm sad to say

I guess timeline comprehension is above your level of comprehension. Take a look at the dates(hint for the brain dead: 2011)

Sorry we was allready in another forum discussing about this, after the developer decided to delete the whole conversation after my last post.

I don't blame you if you really have nothing to do with it.
I blame your partners for what they do.

Everyone here at Steam can see who is listed as both developer and publisher for both games and opencorporates.com shows exactly who is behind these names.

Hold Your Own released to Early Access 2017
Developed and Published by District Ware Inc.
(https://opencorporates.com/companies/ca/8701091)
who is Emmanuelle Savare and Mark Sorella. 3435 Pitfield Boulevard, Montreal, Quebec, Canada

and

The Infected released to Early Access 2020

(https://opencorporates.com/companies/ca/7954654)

P.S. the whole Thread is saved and send to Steam and all well known PC magazines out there.

If somebody actually takes the time to explain it to you, are you going to apologize to the devs of both games or are you going to keep your tin foil hat on?
PC magazines wont touch it because they already know what's happening.

tin foil hat? did you really checked both games and the developers/publishers ...
trying to make money twice out of the same game is ... nvm u dont get it anyway i guess.

It's basically a developer farm.
its some subsidiary company that floats the costs of office space and resources. if the company under them makes above a certain profit then they start taking a cut for expenses
those 3 people you see in that list are developers within this single iteration. they have nothing to do with each other in any way other than they "share office space".
It's been explained to you. Now I'll wait to see what you do with that hat

What a fluke that after 3 years of not finishing the first attempt, the same people develop the same game again and still have the old unfinished product in the store. A rogue who thinks badly about it. ;) But i guess you will figure it out someday.

Guess you dont know how a developer farm works. Keep your hat on

Let the customer decide if they want to spend their money again for something they did already in 2017 and get nothing out of it. Trying to sell the same unfinished product twice is smart, i must admit that.

And if i had a clue about development, bugfixing, Q&S you will find out if you just google my name. ;) Little hint, something with Asura :D

Got nothing out of it? I got over 500 hours from this game. Thats a pretty good amount of time from a game I paid less than $10 for

[Sir Bowen 🐉]

But still an unfinished product with no updates anymore, called dead product. But hey, feel free to buy "The Infected", they work on this one now. :D

Think what you want, keep that hat on. Mark(the dev of this game) is not working on The Infected.
