I hate online service only games.
Like, most MMOs use this feature and that’s fine. But what I hate about it is that after a game has served it’s purpose, or the company can’t keep it up and running, or the creator just up and decides they don’t want to work in the game anymore; that’s it. The game’s gone. Poof! It can’t be recovered because it ran on a server, and that server’s shut down and there’s no physical hard copy to recover it from.
It’s insane and it’s awful. So much blood, sweat, and tears go into the creation of these games and now they’re gone.
Anyone remember playing Neosaurs on Facebook? Probably not, but god I loved that quirky Maplestory ripoff game about dinosaurs. Can’t hardly find any images for that game, much less content related to it.
Same goes for mobile app games. I miss playing Tiny Deathstar. I miss a lot of online only games.
