Well, as you may have read, PA will soon become a "community-sponsored game" where you pay for multiple people instead of just yourself. Go ahead, vent, yell, let it alllll out.

For me, either I'll be getting a 25er with my school (we have a large group) or I might just decide this is the last straw, throw in the towel, and stick to Hyperiums until they split the universes.

Now ask yourself this question: Is PA really worth it? I mean, I dropped out of the game because I wasn't nearly satisfied with any part of it, and it was free then. But that's just me.

Hyperiums was always better than PA, and now it's just got better.

I probably _will_ drop out.

Well, speaking as one of the people who's developing Round 5, I can sure say you'll be missing out on a lot.

I don't have any way to get my money over there. My parents aren't going to pay, I can tell you that.

I understand what great new stuff I'll be missing, Slug, but there is no way I'm going to pay for an online game which sucked last round without trying it first or at least reading some reviews.

Its a sad day for online gamming.
