- vunderba 1y agoYou might go and read the ad copy of Affinity (I own v2 of it). USD$164.99 One-off payment | excl. tax Get Version 2 of Affinity Designer, Affinity Photo and Affinity Publisher on all operating systems, including iPad, for one low bundle price. See how it explicitly calls out "Version 2"? How about Cleanshot? $29 One-Time Payment One year of updates See how it calls out "One Year of updates"? Now let's look at Expressive: Enjoy the benefits of our lifetime license and get access to all features and upcoming updates with a one-off payment. Get access to all features AND UPCOMING UPDATES. Nobody is going to assume this is restricted to the current major version, and having this "gotcha" in the FAQ is going to come with some headache when customers discover "All upcoming updates" doesn't really mean what it says.
- GlacierFox 1y agoWell you didn't make that clear in your initial speel about getting all future upgrades. You tried to pull a fast one, it didn't work, and now you'll have to back-track and clarify.
- msarca 1y agoYeah, it's called "listening to feedback", so don't get into conspiracies with what I have tried :))
- GlacierFox 1y agoHaha. You knew what you were doing. You were trying to fish people in un an underhanded way by not making it clear that the one-time purchase isn't _actually_ a one-time life time purchase with all future updates for free. Take the L and move on.
- msarca 1y agoYou've read me like a book! When you grow up, you should become a detective. Or a business consultant, as you are equally good at figuring out why people buy stuff.
