Among the best games I ever played. Highly recommended.
Am I just stupid or something? Hasn't it been free since, like, always, without and epic games bs?
- I think there was an initial release that was free, but they later rereleased with additional content and started charging. Hence the “Plus” in the name.
  
  Ahh, makes sense. Because I distinctly remember just downloading it on a whim when it was new and going in completely blind, save for the cryptic "not for the faint of heart" warning. Absolutely wild ride, but seems like it kinda blows now that it's extremely well known what the game is
- Technically not free, but rather pay what you want. You can still grab the original version from the official website.
  
  Iirc the Plus version was originally made because of consoles. The original game was very PC specific, as you needed to

  to be able to complete it, and to find some otherwise hidden content. That's of course not possible on consoles...
  
  I haven't played the Plus version, because I think that having an in-game

  directly interact with the game, and have the game running on your own PC instead of a simulated interface.
  
  But, as said, I haven't played it, so it might not actually feel as different to the original game than I fear it does.
