kayapó - I did not bring up Paradox as an example of a company that is immune to buggy releases or market pressures. I brought them up as an example of a company that is prosperous while focusing only on their core fanbase. Their games are not casual-gamer friendly. And yet they are still in business, while providing superior post-release support.
How can they do that while CA can't? It apparently doesn't have anything to do with "survival" because Paradox has been in the biz for a while and doesn't look like they're going under. If CA can't afford to make games they want to play without drastic compromises in quality, then maybe they've become too big and need a few lean years to trim the fat.
I'm not going to feed the beast anymore. I bought RTW and M2TW because of the quality of MTW. I'm not going to give them the benefit of the doubt anymore.
