Some little time past, I did a small report on the damage that Piracy is doing to the PC Gaming Industry...so today's report is rather a retort by a certain "Draginol" over at JoeUser.com that maintains it's the Game Publishers, rather than the Pirates, that are doing the damage to PC Game sales...
When I buy a pizza, I expect to get a pizza. I expect it with the toppings I order, and I expect it to be delivered promptly. By calling Domino's or Papa John's, I've contractually agreed to pay for a pizza when it arrives. But if the deliverman shows up 2 hours late, with cold pizza, with Anchovies instead of Peperoni, then, no, I'm not going to pay for that. The problem with typical game publishers, is they expect you to eat that pizza, and be happy for it. You paid for hot pepperoni, and got cold anchovies, but you have no recourse. |
