    Godot […] is open-source. By proxy, Slay the Spire 2 is also open-source.

    Written by somebody who naively thinks open-source means: the source code can be viewed.

    Typical game journalism incompetence.

    I’m happy for Godot’s commercial success here. But what’s this weird attempt at connecting open source to piracy? You can de-compile lots of Unity games too. Wtf.

      Yeah I guess you could argue that not encrypting or obfuscating the binary makes it a bit faster to create a pirated version but it doesn’t really effect piracy rates beyond that.
      I’m just happy to see a FOSS engine being noticed as important to the game’s success.
