The ability to change features, prices, and availability of things you’ve already paid for is a powerful temptation to corporations.

    Dad joined when it was still okay. I joined when it was grindy. We played a very different game. After a month or two I decided it was too grindy; even if someone offered me an account with all dlc and season passes at no cost to me ever, I would decline. If media is pirated and shared, it has high enough quality to be shared. It is the most awkward sign of respect a creator could receive, respect nonetheless. D2 is currently so bad it’s not even worth trying to steal paid content. Apparently Anthem was in a similar boat, the game sucked, but it had a lot of potential. Dad has an art book from them and I spent days looking at it. When I asked him what it was originally meant to be, he told me all about the game, how it was promised and meant to be, and the same reskinned grindy 100+hour game it became. D2 and Anthem should have been made to their potential.
