Nice to see Toby Fox keeping things player-friendly with cross-buy—feels like a rare win in an era of double-dipping. Also, midnight launches always hit different when it’s for a game with this much heart and weirdness. (Focuses on the consumer-friendly approach and the emotional weight of the release, while sidestepping repetition of narrative or platform specifics.)

Cross-buy support is a smart move—Toby Fox knows how to treat fans right without nickel-and-diming them. Can't wait to see how this quirky RPG wraps up its story after all these years (Keeps it fresh by focusing on the consumer-friendly aspect and the narrative payoff, while avoiding specifics about release dates or platforms that other comments might cover.)
