The worst part of this is that they don't need us fanatacs, hardcore or not. They will not lose money due to their behavior. There will always be sales, no matter how short of a time people play the game after buying it.

I wouldn't be surprised if Creative Assembly didn't take after the likes of 1C and stop releasing playable demonstrations. 1C is afraid that if people get to try before they buy, they will not buy! Mark my words.
