Hot take: If its a free to play online multiplayer game, its not very upsetting.

Yeah, fans want another skate in the vein of the trilogy and it sucks we wont get that... But if i dont have to buy this game then idc if it will hit a premature death when it stops being supported. Yeah its a waste of development resources and i wish online-only games didnt exist for the sake of preservation, but i wont be upset if i get to play this game and dont have to pay a dime.

Im not entirely sure itll be ftp though, so this take can be completely void.

Another game I simply won't need to buy. Neat. I guess some publishers just don't like selling games or something.

Why would they stop? Cause you asked? Sadly this online crap is what’s making money and game companies are and have always been about money, all of them without exception

Stop buying games made by these companies. Petition won't do shit. Take their money away, stop buying them

I wish that has worked over the last decade. It didn't. We need a governing body to stand up and represent us. That's what they're for.

And yes I know it won't be exactly as written. Read the darn thing

It's worked for me, these games don't die in my eyes because they don't exist.

Sticking your head in the sand is a comfort, I suppose
