NC Soft has been tough on underperformers, as we saw with Auto Assault. But in general when the community sees games shut down so quickly, it just encourages people to choose more quickly whether to invest in a game or not -- which pressures developers to release games that are more finished, which in turn creates a lot of financial pressure. It's probably a reflection of the economic conditions as well, but in all not a very good development for the industry. It’s never a happy day to see an MMO offlined.
