That's the price of a little micro transaction in some other games. It will be worth, but I also feel kind of bad for the devs (or publisher). After so much time and work to produce (hopefully) a high quality game and then this cheap. Not complaining, but wondering if a higher price wouldn't be too bad. I think 29,99 or 24,99 (~~the price of Factorio~~ Edit: oh wait, I forgot Factorio costs 32 Euros here in Germany) would be totally acceptable in a time like this where AAA games come out at 79,99.

There will probably be DLC and soundtracks you can buy if you really just want to give them more money.
