I buy a short $5 indie game. I give it away afterwards digitally to a friend. The next guy does the same thing. And the next guy.
Now the developer has to primarily make money by selling merch or ingame ads. No thanks. If the game is good, people will buy it.
You could argue people did this with physical media. But it was not nearly as impactful; I couldn’t click a few buttons in seconds and hand the game away.
I went with a tiny build in a Fractal Terra. It still fit a 7900XTX and I’ve been super happy with the look and form factor on my desk. If you need details about the cooler and other parts, I can share a PCPartPicker link. There’s a bit of an art to squeezing all your component goodies in but it should be more than enough for a very powerful, extensible build.
