Wait… what the fuck? Who cones up with those shitty ideas?

How about you make a game good enough that people switch from the older one willingly instead of forcing it down their throats?

You make older games better by updating them. This is an update.

they were never going to be able to release a totally new game without a lot of backlash from the ~~addict~~ skin trading communities. They wouldn't want to risk their free income from the whales by splitting the player base and eventually shunning the skin investors stuck on the old game.
