SaaS is way more profitable and it's almost impossible to crack/emulate if you only release the client.
This mentality resonates perfectly with share holders.

Valve is a private company so there is still hope.

QuoteI'm fine with a female protagonist but things felt a little to rated "PG". Games from that genre from Y2k 2000 were like Serious Sam -- where big ( )( ) harpies and kamakazi bomber men would attack you and ambush you like you were playing in a arcade
Game is missing the salt and pepper, but I do believe that if they played their cards right they could join the ranks of Stardew Valley and Terraria.

It's a good game but ultimately an online only service which you, as a player/customer, cannot control without dedicated server binaries that are not available.

Things like this will continue to happen. And, yes, the game servers will be eventually shut down and all your micro transactions content will be gone.

QuoteEven with single-player though, the developer confirmed an active internet connection is required.
