I don't understand why you'd ask that. And I struggle to explain why this baffles me so much. Why would you think the devs of a game you like, a game that many people seem to like, might be considering making it free? If it was doing badly, sure. But apparently their business model is working. So why the fuck?

Hey Todd Howard, do you plan to make Elder Scrolls 6 free to play? ... okay, horse armour says bad example.

If you trust the opinion of a random Lemmy user, REPO is really fun so long as you have a small friend group to play it with. Sure, it's another take on Lethal Company but it leads to some wacky moments and allows for some skill expression (if you kill enemies, they'll drop their souls as loot). Definitely well worth the $10 assuming you have people to play with. If you need to play with randos, ymmv.
