And PA is the most successful RTS to come out in recent years. It has higher player numbers than anything released since.

Gamers just vastly overrate their understanding of the gaming industry.

This can't be better said. We have a game developper here in France called Frederic Raynal, who has developped "Alone in the Dark", "Little Big Adventure" .... and he has come up with an old-school horror game called 2dark.
The game has been partly founded through crowd funding. It's not doing well and because the lack of budget they had to get a game publisher (BigBen Interractive). So the game came out with DRM (The game publisher wanted the game to be denuvo protected). Devs had promised during they crowdfunding campaign there would be no DRM. And now they are suffering bashing from Ignorant people who don't kown at all what the game industry reality is. They should watch "Indie Game the Movie" to get a slight picture of what developping a game means ...

With PA, not only i got one of the most impressive RTS ever done, but i've been through a journey i don't regret at all.

I think the case with 2dark is quite different. People didn't just found the game, they pre purchased it under the understanding that it wouldn't have DRM. Not having DRM isn't a feature they have to develop; it isn't like promising, for example, multi screen support and eventually being unable to deliver.
I understand that maybe that was their only option to publish the game but they should have given the option to refound to those who bought it under the assumption of no DRM.

Actually they have given the option for refund and keep being bashed by fuckers. The funny thing also is that among the 1000 backers (that was a small crowdfunding), so far only one backer has claimed for refund. So all the bashing is not organized by original backers. developping games is definitly tough nowadays.
