So, I've found out that there are WhatsApp and Facebook groups where one guy will buy a (recent!) scene game, dump it and share it to the rest of the group. Some of these involve games I worked on.
This is not to start drama or anything, but I would genuinely like to know how those people feel about themselves. Does it make them feel proud? Does it feel like an accomplishment? Do they enjoy shitting all over other people's hard work?
Well, I can tell about at least one accomplishment: the Kai Magazine game that's in development now will probably be the last MSX game I'll ever make music for. So that's an accomplishment right there. I'm not saying my music was any good to begin with (it has a lot of flaws), but as people seem to think it's nothing at all, and not worth anything, you can apparently easily do without.
Congratulations, and pat yourself on the back and treat yourself to a nice beer for this achievement.
The question remains: does it feel nice to be killing the MSX scene? It must be, or else you wouldn't be doing it.
And for those who think I'm making drama or exaggerating: try to imagine making a lot of free stuff, and still having your not-free stuff disrespected and disregarded just like that. It's a big slap in the face, and really hurtful and insulting. So thanks again.
