Not doing it because you’ll upset fans is a terrible reason, you modernize it and gain even more. Just as many fans want a new game and they are upsetting those ones already.
You’ll never please everyone, that’s impossible and just because you’ll upset either new fans or old fans is no reason to not try. It’s an excuse to not do it, no more.
I disagree. Valve has no shortage of money, and would only end up burning goodwill by putting out a subpar product. From their perspective, it’s better to have a loyal, if rabid, fan base rather than the backlash a bad product would generate.
But they have all that money to NOT put out a subpar product, but instead they hoard it for themselves.
It’s a strange argument to make in this world, the corp should keep the money instead of spending it putting money back into the market through hiring and wages? Making a product for people to buy?
They already get bad backlash from the lack of updates and content, they clearly don’t care about that, they want their hoard.
