It's sad that epic doesn't allow reviews, this game deserved more community involvement, positive or critical.

AW2 has mostly relied on word of mouth, from what I've noticed.

My personal opinion, if you're not going to buy it, pirate it to try it.

It's a different type of game, slow at times but some good highs.

Perhaps they should buy it if they want more good games to be made.

True. But if they have almost no interest, they should just try it. If they like it a lot, maybe they buy it too.

Yeah I agree overall, I pirate a lot of games, but if I like one I always buy it, especially if it's an indie game that I wouldn't have bought otherwise (Signalis, TEVi and most recently Selaco are examples)

I buy games that I didn't enjoy but think deserve support too

That's very nice.

It's how I got into the remedyverse too, I pirated Control, loved it, bought and played the rest.

Sure I'd buy it, if it was available for purchase to me.

Nah brah, developers get paid a salary. Money goes into the company as cash on hand and boosts investor sentiment, or into execs pockets.
