To all you modders out there!

As an indie developer you most certainly are not free to do whatever the balls you feel like. You are only free to do whatever brings food on your employees' table and keeps you in business. Most indie developers aren't as lucky as Frictional Games and judging by the hard road it was to get Amnesia made it took a LOT of luck for that happen. You hear a lot of success stories but the reality is that most indie developers are stuck making shitty licensed games on impossible deadlines just to keep running.

Surely that is the case if you want to make a success out of things, however there are no rules saying what you can and can't do, whilst working under a publisher there are tons of rules you'll have to abide to.
