Spectre Divide<\/em> players who purchased the now-cheaper skins were also issued refunds today. If you purchased any of the expensive new bundles, 30 percent of the initial SP price should have now been refunded into your account. E.g., if you had purchased the Cryo Kinesis Masterpiece bundle for 9,000 SP, you received 3,000 SP as refunded pay.<\/p>
Whether the refunds and price drops are enough for the slumping Steam reviews to turn from Mixed to Positive (at the time of writing) will be seen, though the review bombing seems to have stopped.<\/p>
After the drop, the Spectre Divide devs attempted to justify their initial pricing, stating: \u201cWe love our free players deeply, but we also have to pay for the servers they play on (as well as the massive initial and ongoing cost of development), so the \u201cfreeness\u201d comes at a cost to us.\u201d The game director also added the studio had taken what it saw as the best possible approach to constantly support the shooter’s development to improve the overall experience of the game.<\/p>
