Quoting: ArkonaIf I was you I would delete this post from the site. There are so many people who's family members and close friends were killed only in the last year, or raped, or raped and killed, who will find all this very offending.
I sincerely surprised that some publisher answer like that to people they expect to buy there's games talking about such a controversial thing.
This is also a huge black spot on this site and you should not write about such an incident. Except, of course, if you are hoping for financing from Soros and company. But I think that it's not a good idea.
What does any of that have anything remotely to do with refugees in a fictional game? Nothing.

Quoting: CreakIs there really a difference between buying from Feral store and get a Steam key, and buying directly the key from Steam? #honnestquestion
Yes, Feral gets more money when buying directly from them!
Bingo, as keys are generated for free by developers, Steam doesn't get their 30% cut for sales outside of Steam.

Small update, I've adjusted the pagination above comments to sit in the "Comments" black header bar. So instead of pagination above comments taking up an entire big line, it's a bit more compacted. Looks better :)

I've also just added a dark version of the default avatar, so it's not so glaring on the dark theme :)

The bookmark icon on a ticked button is pretty much invisible when using the dark theme.
Ah yes, you're right. I've toned that down quite a bit for the dark theme it's much more visible now.

And oh my, that's hilarious I wonder if that's an issue with other templating tags...

Edit: Turns out it is, uh oh :D

Edit: That little hole in our templating system has now been fixed, see:
