I'm not sure what your point is? Perhaps I incorrectly assumed this was obvious but yes - if players do not financially support a game, even "free to play" games, those games disappear. There is not a single company on the planet that is going to continue investing in a negative revenue project for funsies. The teams working on the game are relocated to other projects or laid off, and the game shuts down.

If you believe I'm in the wrong for supporting a game that, until this point, was friendly to linux - then so be it.
