A Fan doesn't have a job, an employee does.
I'm a fan of specific games that are worth being a fan of, not the
industry as a whole.
I can be a fan of the Corvette Stingray without being a fan of all
Corvettes much less the entire worldwide automotive industry.

You have in the past insisted that any TRUE PC Games fan will buy every
game "to support the developers", even if it's total crap.

Buying crap just means more and more crap gets produced.

Fuck That!

If they want my money they have to produce something _Worth Buying_ (I
know this is a hard concept for you to grasp.)

It doesn't matter what it is, how it's priced, or how it's distributed,
if it's garbage I'm NOT going to buy it.

This is how real people think.  
Go ahead, keep buying multiple copies of games because of their copy
protection scheme.  
We owe the games industry nothing, much less to buy anything and
everything they produce.

Produce a game I want and I'll buy it.
Produce a buggy piece of shit that has 15 hours of play and zero replay
value and I (and thousands of others) will vote with our wallets and not
buy it.

Copy protection schemes, digital distribution, packaging, etc means
absolutely nothing compared to the quality of the game.

Can you get that through your head?

Buy only quality games and eventually ALL the games being produced will
be worth buying, since the crap producers will all go out of business
(or be bought by EA which is much the same thing.)

Buying multiple copies of average games because of their lack of copy
protection means you are actively HURTING the games industry, since you
don't give a damn about the quality and are happy to buy unprotected
garbage simple because it's unprotected.

Get some standards already.
