Honestly them making it cost money in the first place is ridiculous. SLRR is unstable as it is and to make people pay for it is just insane.
I know they have "fixed" the problems but i own it on steam (Legit just for this reason of online) but now i feel as if its not even worth it.
Seeing as how they are going to charge for a online feature is just even worse seeing as how you just paid for a unstable game as it is.
(I mean lets be honest ppl will only play slrr with mods so its kinda like a fuck you to the modders who make that game last in value)
