It just makes me crazy ffs).
This may be offtopic but it's the f*cking market (as you say: the business) nowdays. The "gaming industry" is f*cked up because it has no soul anymore, bunch of greedy business guys who want to squeeze out even the last few cents to produce another cash cow... that's the gaming industry nowdays. Make game, sell progression to earn max. money, let game die because everyone achieved everything in a few weeks, create new game, sell progression again... repeat over and over again, there will be always people who fall for the bait.
Seems like I have to stay with old school games, anyone up for a Age of Empires 2 LAN match? Found this old original CD in my basement again xD
