    You’re entitled to your opinion, but it was a very popular and well-loved game by many. O2? Not so much.

        Because it was made as an excuse to fully transition to a f2p business model. It wasn’t a game anyone was asking for and the only way they could get people to use it over the first one was by shutting the first one down. It was their way of pushing enshitification.

          good games make more money than bad games so clearly you’re wrong

            Not really true. While there are lots of factors in how profitable a game is, the biggest one is marketing. Regardless of how good it is. Brand name recognition. Like any other industry. It’s why games like CoD and Assassin’s Creed are ridden the fuck to death despite continuously getting worse.

                Hmm, you make a convincing argument…
