-Personally, I have being on Demo for 5 almost 6 years, and it's not because I don't want to buy S2 or S3 license nor be like "f**k devs, ama pir4te m8", but the problem is that I don't have a credit card nor think of having one in the future, then for me its like a far "dream". And its perfect the way Demo is right now, it doesn't need any change so far.
I love LFS and what devs do to it, its my favorite Simulator I have played, and I disagree about the time limitation.
-Doing everything you say, would totally kill LFS, LFS is popular because of its' content, its' free-limit Demo and its' community.
-In my country, Argentina, it is a pain in the butt getting/buying stuff from the exterior, believe me. Here are the prices of Sx licenses in my currency (ARS):
S1: 12 GBP = 249,88 ARS
S2: 24 GBP = 499,75 ARS
S3: 36 GBP = 749,63 ARS
-If I even dare to buy S1, I have to pay a 35% of the original price. And know what? This applies when you buy something in excess of 25 dollars. YES, 25 USD is the max amount where you don't have to pay that 35% recharge, and you can only buy Twice per year. Here are the results of the 35% recharge:
S1: 249,88 ARS 35% = 87,45 ARS
S2: 499,75 ARS 35% = 174,91 ARS
S3: 749,63 ARS 35% = 262,37 ARS
-Now add the 35% recharge to the original product, to obtain the product final price:
S1: 337,33 ARS
S2: 674,66 ARS
S3: 1012 ARS
-I don't even sweve when I say I'll will S2/S3 license some day, but for now, I'll wait till S3 gets more content, and if I will to get a credit card some day (I don't think it'll happen, but who knows), and maybe that day will change.
-And ye, I think Demo has the enough content for its' name.
-Ofc that everyone here, included me, hates those crackers, even if LFS gets the best software to prevent cracking, there'll be always someone who can bypass it and make profit out of it. Same happens with mods, even with 0.6 restrictions, more VOB mods keep going out, even if they may get support in the future and it's not recommended to use VOB mods to avoid errors, some ppl will still use them, and its also one of the reasons LFS is popular among other reasons.
