Re: I don't like this name

In Response To: Re: I don't like this name (ChrisTheeCrappy)

: Just to be clear, it was my initial gut reaction. Just went sour right away.
: I was trying to word it, and made assumptions why I felt that way (it
: really was an exploration).

: But I actually disagree, they do have an obligation to NOT remove content
: that was in an old game.
Because otherwise most of us would not buy it.
: Firefight and Invasion not being in has already made a lot of people not
: buy it, as well as Split screen. It may not be an obligation to us, and I
: don't look at it that way, I look at it as something that MAKES us want to
: buy it.

Speaking strictly as a fan of games in general, I gotta disagree here. There is ZERO "obligation" to follow such criteria. The whole point is that you purchase a specific product based on the merits of that product, and not necessarily because of the guarantee that all that came before will be included and added to/built upon. There are countless franchises that I'm a fan of that have feature sets that have ebbed and flowed, been added, subtracted, adjusted. I totally understand the desire to see your favorite features carried over, but using the term obligation strikes me as more than a bit hyperbolic/presumptuous. If you don't like a game's feature set, then don't buy it. Developers have no more obligation to include stuff in their games than consumers have to purchase them.

Just my two cents. :-)
