This should be illegal
This should be illegal, companies should be forced to open-source games (or at least provide the code to people who bought it) if they decide to discontinue it, so people can preserve it on their own.

It was a free 'game' that was little more than a tutorial 🤷♂️
It's not like it's never happened to paid full games before.
*cries in Battleborn*
Don't you fucking dare say that name. I have never in my life seen a game with so much promise be self fucked so hards by it's own devs that it kills the game in its tracks.
NO ONE FUCKING ASKED FOR A BATTLE ROYALE - AND WE SURE AS SHIT DIDNT ASK FOR PAID BATTLE ROYALE SEPARATE FROM THE MAIN GAME.
...UGH.
EDIT: I WAS THINKING OF BATTLERITE BUT MY FRUSTRATION IS STILL VERY REAL.
Ever hear of SOCOM?
So why do they need to remove it?
Because Zuck's dreams of a post-life in his metaverse are crumbling.
Because paying for the servers to keep the game online cost more money than what they make out of it.
What servers? It probably stores a few KB of data per player.
And that isn't making them money, so they scrap it.
No it's the great cleansing where... checks notes.. billionaires crush the working classes by taking away their free virtual pets?
