Oh, now I see how that could be an insult on appearance. I was thinking about safe, reliable, doesn't need much maintenance etc, I thought it was a compliment.

I don't get it

more like sinkapore, amiright?

Break the cycle at any step! it'll make you stronger than you think

you just were, keep it real man!

you made me tap the sign

cool, don't buy ubisoft or ea slop next time.
If you smell live service in any game, don't buy it. wait for it to be cracked and pirate it. Maybe that will slow down the proliferation of these bad practices.
It seems like people are just giving these companies as much money they ask for, and then they act surprised when these companies screw them over when money gets tight.
Give your money to someone else instead.

I really don't get it, this is games, if you don't like the terms don't buy it.
I am against physical things like tractors, cars, fridges, or even professional software like adobe or editing stuff not having a lifetime contract, but these are games, the competition in the gaming sphere is HUGE, i don't think there is a single game where the plug was pulled for which there is not a better/more fun alternative.
Introducing legislation in this sphere would just make it harder for small companies to adhere to standards.
If I make a small game, which has some kind of online elements, I spend a couple of years making it, it flops, now I have legal issues also? *** that.
Maybe if there was a limit introduced, like games above X budget, or companies bigger than Y budget, or games above Z price, then MAYBE there's some merit to include legislation.

There's a lot of problems with ppl getting screwed over by shitty games, false advertising or just downright not working - where legislation could help (steam is cool in this regard with it's no questions asked refund policy), but I, as a small company having to adhere to ANY laws regarding support for the game AFTER I'm already under the water just seems like an absurd waste of my and the courts resources.
If you don't like the fact that the game is a live service, then don't freaking buy it.
I have spent money on EA's battlefield heroes, It was shut down eventually, I never even thought about going to court over it. It was obvious from the start that this is going to shut down eventually, and it was fun while it lasted (before bots took over every server).
