I was following some of the comments on Steam, while peoples reaction was a little understandable it has been blown out of proportion. It stuns me that people can't accept the simple thing that if they don't want to pay, then they don't get access, and that they don't NEED to pay now. Wait till later and pay the normal price to play it.

That said, Uber to my mind really shouldn't have put it up for sale. Just used Steam for Alpha / beta testing and left it at that, then maybe do something as they get closer to release where they somehow open access to others.
