    That’s fine for him, but let’s not take this as a guideline for the entire industry.

    There are plenty of talented, creative, and committed developers who are trying to turn their dream game into their life’s work.

    For most of them, the only way they can survive spending another 5 years working on the same title post-launch is by charging for the new stuff they make.

      Yeah easy for him to say, he’s a one-man operation, so he gets ALL the profit to himself. Probably millions of dollars at this point… he’s set for life. He doesn’t really need DLC money. But other devs probably do.
