    this would make indie devs even more insufferable. They'd be on whatever social media whining that yeah, technically they made back 10x their money BUT only 5% of people who beat the game tipped and they need those tips because blah blah blah

      Don't give to ANY fricking charity unless it's something local in your town that you personally know is doing what they claim to be doing.

      99% of "charities" are just scams for rich people to keep their less rich cousins from having to work real jobs by completely staffing their "non-profit" organization with them.

    >on top of the $70 price

    pretty much all of my favorite games i got for 40 dollars or less. Devs need to realize they can make good games without 1000-person dev teams. Hell, ubisoft learned that when they made CoJ Gunslinger and Farcry Blood Dragon, then they just went back to their bullshit.

    Season passes and cosmetic mtx are that already. I really like Helldivers 2 and got more than my $40 worth playing it and I wanted the one premium battle bond sooner than the SC drop rate was for me so I spent $10 and got it. That was a tip in my eyes.

    Tipping in general shouldn't be encouraged, but if it does happen it should be exclusively towards complimentary services, not for doing the one thing you're already paying them to do in the first place.

    This might sound crazy, but some companies pay these things called bonuses when employees do well. It's like tipping, but the consumer doesn't have to do it.

      yeah the bonus usually goes directly to the executives or upper management.
      the actual low employees get an extra like $500 at best. and then still get laid off half a year later lol.

    Respectfully, America - don't impose your weird corporate bootlicking practises to the rest of the world. Your tipping culture is mad because the employees and custoemrs are at each other's throats - when you should be pissed at the companies. The same companies that don't have to p[ay their employees less and make them rely on tips in any other country they exist in. Admit your country is fricked in tipping and carry on. You get my money when you release a finished, full, product.

    I see selling cut content as DLC wasn't enough, now every loading screen will have a little box saying:
    >"Having fun? Buy us a coffee ;)!"
    with a little link to spend 5$.
    It'll even have tiers like
    >"5$- a cool gamer"
    >"10$- a REAL player!"
    >"20$- AN ABSOLUTE LEGEND"
    and you'll get an achievement for spending money at each tier

    Tip means “to insure promptness” and was traditionally given before a service to make sure the server focused solely on you. For a game to be delivered promptly would require crunch(among many other things), and piss babies keep telling me that’s bad.
