Don't be so quick to dismiss. I'm a professional game developer, and I'll tell you - it's really freakin' hard to write a game to completion and ship it. It's a real achievement, and often a labor of love for the artists and engineers who pour their souls into it.

I have worked for EA, Microsoft, Rockstar, Ubisoft and a bunch more and one of the things that often puts me off making my own games is that I have to deal with entitled gamers who can be judgmental dicks.

Just have a little consideration- the game might not be a AAA behemoth and have the latest shiny shaders - but there might actually be a compelling little game in there. Give it a go before you badmouth it.
hey, are you telling me that saving a persons life with CPR simulator isn't worth $9 ? giving it away for free almost seems like a community service.

so if it was selling for $14.99 before , is it a $14.99 "good" game, or is it a FREE "good" game now ?

I'm taking it as- it's free for a reason and not because people were buying these up for $10 and $15 before.

I'd like to meet the 1-2 people who actually paid $15 for these games.

I don't have a VR headset and don't plan to get one, so why do I keep adding these free games to my account?

Because you might one day. That's the reason I have my collection of free VR games. One day I may pull the trigger on a VR headset and I want some stuff to try out that isn't your typical 'free' game.

I'm sad that Niftons Arena went free. It's a solid Lemmings style game that has some real depth if you're willing to put the time in. The AI is solid, but really against real people who know the game is where the strategy comes in. I guess it just didn't get the attention it needed to pull in dedicated players.

Wouldn't that be a good thing to bring in more players? Or is this just an indication that the game will receive no more support?

the only thing that looked remotely interesting was skybinder, the rest were huge passes. But even that I highly doubt i'd try it.
