but aren't all video games? it's more of whether they are enjoyable time sinks I guess.
and all mmmo's are grinding fetch quests with the appeal of playing with a dead hedgehog

However, we got nothing.
I've always stayed away from MMOs exactly because they seemed to be joyless, grind-heavy strings of pointless or nonsensical quests, but if there are some that are as fun as playing with a dead hedgehog, I might have to reconsider! (Or is an "mmmo" different from an MMO?)

Its all summed up quite nicely by
[CarrionCrow]: Your game has ended.
Its fate was decided by businessmen who viewed all your interest, your enjoyment, your friendship, your investment, your time, your energy and your level of care with the same amount of empathy as a person clearing out spiderwebs and crushing the spider to death when the spider's presence became more of an annoyance than the benefit of it consuming flies.
All of you people who cared then and still care now? It didn't matter than and it still doesn't now.
All that ever mattered was your money.
That is all the businessmen cared about. That is all that mattered. That is all that will ever matter to them.
Your impassioned pleas will fall on deaf ears.
And no, regardless of what you might think, GOG will not be able to bring your game back.
GOG has a deal with Disney for roughly 30 Lucasarts games.
That is all.
GOG will not and can not bring back your dead game.
That would take Disney, and the game didn't make enough money to justify its continued existence.
So they killed it. It's dead. Game over.
