I don't know how this is actually working out for them, but Spiral Knights recently dropped an annoying model where the number of levels we can play is limited by a paywall ("energy" bullshit). This is a wild guess, but maybe they found out that players with longer active playtime are more likely to pay for shit (if there are things to pay for, like cosmetic upgrades they patched in). It seems fairly obvious, so I hope dropping energy mechanics is going to be a trend that extends to all free-to-play games.
I think it's going to happen to a lot of developers in the next few years. They are going to realize that the early models of F2P are simply not working the way they originally did. They may have got away with in the past, but as devs use this new format of not paywalling the entire game is going to be a huge shock to the old model champions.
I realize I probably won't get a brand new game, but I put them there in case someone might have an extra code they would be willing to give up, even if the humble bundle is going on. I'm also open to trading other games. I don't care about the people who don't want to trade or laugh at the idea. At least I can say I made people laugh today.
I have an extra Origin code for Dead Space 3. Was wondering if anyone was interested in trading for another extra copy of a game they may have.
Games I'm interested in trading:
Saints Row 4
The Bureau
Bioshock Infinite
Call of Juarez Gunslinger
Far Cry 4 Blood Dragon
Papers, Please
PAYDAY 2
Skyrim
I would consider others as well, but those are the ones I've been looking forward to getting my hands on. Thanks. :)
EDIT: I don't expect to get a brand new game by any mean, I just put those up as my most wanted. Also, I know the humble bundle is going right now. It's where I got this code. I figured there was no harm is asking to trade with my fellow community. Put the torches down. Thank you.
