You visit any other website or business like Ebay, Amazon.com, Walmart.com,
etc, , purchase a product, then you expect delivery of said product within a
reasonable amount of time, say 7 to 14 days? Would you wait 6 months before
inquiring where your product is? I don't know anyone that would be willing
to spend their money on something and then wait for an unspecified amount of
time to receive their purchased item and not get upset over not getting what
was paid for. I don't see that it should be any different for developer's of
games. People buy their products expecting to receive what they order, and
when it never arrives, they aren't supposed to worry about where it is or
why they haven't received it, and although they have written asking about
why they haven't gotten it, they receive no response for the person they
bought the item from? This just doesn't make sense to me and it isn't good
business practice, in my opinion. It makes me worry that if I choose to
purchase a game, that the developer's do not care whether we ever get what
we pay for. Six months? I know I would not appreciate waiting six months for
something I spent money on. Patience is one thing, but come on, no one
should have to wait that long when it is their money they are spending.

A thought on impatience: Some people gripe about the length of time taken
by developers to come out with a new game. Some people gripe if they
don't get a registration key right away. Some people gripe about the fact
that they don't have enough games to play. Strangely enough, these 3
complaints come from pretty much the same few people. These are also the
same people who want cheat codes very shortly after they get a new game.
Have you noticed what always seems to happen when these complainers really
get on a roll?
James North produced many very good games and then quit. Why did this
occur?? Liam has voiced frustration, to say the least, and has openly
voiced a consideration of quitting. Why? Other producers of games have
also vacated the premises. Guess why?
I commend those developers who have stuck it out and continue working for
those of us who do care about and respect them. For those of us who
don't, and who only care about themselves and what they want, when they
want it and no later, what's it going to take for you to learn what you
cause? It's about time you grow! up! and think about someone other than
you for a change.
Yes, I'm angry, and I think I have a darned good reason to be. Although I
don't create games, I care about those who do, and it just flat burns me
up when you drive these creators away with your selfish and downright
childish behavior!
