| And despite that, if you ask any popular youtube personality to share their numbers, the revenue share for their monetization has dropped from what would have been a reliable $10K per month for their market base to about $400, if they are lucky. Granted, a lot of them were overvalued, but it seems to me that instead of generating more advertising income, they've simply gotten better at finding ways to keep from paying it through now that they have a broad enough disposable content base to enable them to comfortably ignore complaints. |

| Niko turned down one too many invitations to go bowling with his buddy GFWL. By the time it got swapped out for Air Hockey, it was too late to save their relationship. |

| I'd kind of forgotten this existed. I'm glad he's continued working on it. I wonder if I still have my old alpha copy on a hard drive somewhere. |

I didn't even realize this game had come out, let alone that it might be good.
It wasn't. Even the most hardcore of Notch fans didn't do much more than mess around with it for an hour, set it aside, and never touch it again. They all went to Hearthstone instead. |

Oh, and remember that Dec 31 deadline? They lied. The servers shut down in two days right before the office gets shuttered. Also, employees will not paid out for any PTO accrual, given any severance, and their medical insurance is ending in 8 days.
Happy Thanksgiving! |

| It was one of those games that was fun for a while, but none of the developers really understood what was fun about it. And patch by patch, they eventually managed to remove the fun and were left with a product that nobody was willing to give them money for any longer. |

| It will be worth it if they bundle the finished product with a version of the first game that does not turn into a buggy unplayable mess by the second act. |

| They would have signed the papers to dissolve the company sooner, but they only had Mad Catz pens to work with. The first one was broken out of the box, the second one ran out of ink halfway through the first initial, and the third one only worked from right to left. |

| Don't care what the stretch goals were then, don't care now. If more content gets patched in later, great. Gives me an excuse to replay it. If not, didn't care to begin with. |

| Sad, but probably true. At least they were able to get Homeworld updated and working for modern systems. I'll forgive them a lot of their transgressions for just that fact. |

I am fine with your envy and I am fine with this game. It is coming along quite nice. When it is out, I'll be sure to send you a big "i told you the fuck so, you fucking prick..." With a smile of course.. 
When you do finally snap out of it, the blowback is going to be glorious to behold. I'll be curious to see what it finally takes before you reach your breaking point and all that smug turns into rabid frothing. |

| T-Mobile started to fall into the same trap as AT&T. Calling to make an account change? Upsell, upsell, upsell. Calling to report an issue? Upsell, upsell, upsell. Calling to check your usage? Upsell, upsell, upsell. Then my connection suddenly went to crap, and their only solution was "We changed formats, so we have to sell you a new phone and an attached 2 year contract to get your connection back up to speed!" So I bought a new phone from someone else and dropped them as a carrier entirely. |
