Hey, guess what you can& #39;t do. Complain about how small the indie games industry is and then shit on people for even proposing different ways to do things. Damn.

Indie designers give a ton of money to distribution sources, funding platforms, and most are working full time in unrelated jobs. If even joking about a different distribution method gets you attacking and smearing people, you& #39;re not supporting growth of the industry.

And Hey, if you don& #39;t like a distribution method, how about you don& #39;t use it for your stuff or don& #39;t buy it! A new way of thinking about content distribution could pave the way for new, AMAZING designers, especially ones with bills to pay.

Just because you don& #39;t like Nintendo or Blizzard doing something, doesn& #39;t mean you should eliminate it for indie devs.
Indie devs aren& #39;t massive corporations.
If Super Smash Bros Xtreme Next Edition had a Patreon to fund it& #39;s growth, you& #39;d be against it, because it& #39;s DIFFERENT.

I know I& #39;ve been talking about having fewer hot takes, but this isn& #39;t even hot. This is tepid. Don& #39;t discourage game development.
