I think it is Locarnus's right whether or not he wants to continue working on his Mod. That is up to him, whether we like his reasoning or not. What does attacking his fundamentals do for the community besides continue to bolster our ego's? Well, I guess the majority of people here might be upset that a decent mod maker decided to stop working. That doesn't mean there are not other modders out there willing to make mods like this one. It isn't hard to do just takes time.

I mean the entire purpose of Distant Worlds Universe was to introduce a easier ability to make modifications to the game, and to share them to one another. We should be grateful to anyone who considers making these huge mods for us to further enjoy the game. Some of these mods would not even be possible without the Universe addition.

I agree though, Matrix Games have become such scammers. If you went ahead and purchased every single expansion you should have every right to the this new expansion, providing further support for a 5 year old game for free. Forcing players to pay what, 20-25 dollars after reducing the price of it. I mean, how dare they force players to pay for their hard work...

Really I hope you can tell my sarcasm at this point. The level or irony of you complaining that people are mooching off your free work as your complaining about Matrix Games not providing their work for free... wow. Its hard to imagine someone attempting to defend their position with type of argument. You are complaining about people mooching off of you... as you are complaining about that Matrix games not providing their continue support for free? That is their choice, as its your own choice to stop working on this modification that you created. People are annoyed not that you are stopping. People are not bothered that you are moving on with your life.

People are just starting to have severe aneurysms over your reasoning's and the way your attempt to communicate your thoughts to explain your choices. I stick to my very first statement. It is your right to stop your mod. That is up to you. However if you are going to go ahead and make nonsensical posts and then get pissed off at people not understanding your positioning, the only person here to blame is yourself and your fundamentals for your reasoning simply collapses.

I would not even call you a modder at this point. I would not call this mess anything relating to programming or the community. You are just a troll.

I was curious about his accusation of fraud and such so I looked up universe and it's been there. The entire time. It was even on sale during the holidays.

Locarnus has a point regarding retailers and really every major corporation atm, but his hostility to matrix is misplaced. There simply seems to be a misunderstanding of priorities here.

You show me how someone who bought Vanilla+RotS+Legends+Shadows can upgrade to Universe without paying full price again, and I reconsider my accessment of matrixgames as being scammers.

Locarnus is a perfect example of why the United States is screwed in 50 years. My generation and those coming up are the most entitled pricks I have ever seen. "If I can't have it, no one will!"

Yeah, says the freeloader who thinks he is entitled to a mod he did not pay for and did not help with in any regard while insulting the mod author for having moral standards, which are the basis of every community.

Then continues on whining that there is no one left, willing to supply the free mods he feels entitled to...

You know, people like me might be a small example of why the US is failing at least since the 80s. Because people like me tend to leave when people like you get the upper hand. And people like you do not seem to be very productive except for providing even more incentives for people like me to leave...


It was a game with great potential, unfortunately dev, publisher and community were not, when it mattered. So the first is "rich", the second as well and the community is dead/virtually non-existant. I wonder who made the wrong choices...


It is always fun to come back here and see what happens, when short-sighted greed gets the upper hand. Very few get the money and do not care while the consuming masses are irrelevant, and are still defending the ideology which got them into this situation. A little like watching news about the US, from a safe distance [:'(].

I guess I have to amend to what I stated above, you are productive.
Thank you for the entertainment you provide.
