Inhuman. I can’t believe how they would fire everybody without telling them what’s going on, just shutting off all their accounts and leaving them hanging.

    Actually, some talented people have managed to make locally/community hosted WoW a thing, so at least you have that backup plan :)

    No such luck for Destiny 1/2, how much time I spent there…

      Yes.

      My point is that saying games that have been going strong for over a decade “always ends up being a rugpull” is… it doesn’t make it look like you understand what a “rugpull” is.

        I suppose, sorry. I meant your progress that was meant to last forever being dragged out from under you (server shutdown). I guess rugpull might be more for something like scams.

          Yes. Words have meaning.

          Online/live games having minimal support for EOL is very much a problem that most developers will agree with.

          Accusing any online game of being a scam is an inherently combative stance that paints the developers/publisher as the enemy and means no discussion can happen.
