Newer contents in patches are rare, most force us to buy DLC or expansion pack. Take "Empire Total War" as an example of how irresponsible a developer can be. This game was one of the most expected in history and ended up as a bugfest. Patches only came occasionally and did not really fix anything. Any history fan will facepalm to death when they see how inaccurate this game is. Finally, EA just conveniently dropped the game. The story didn't end there. They developed another game in the series called "Napoleon total war", which was a little bit better than an expansion pack, and sold it with full price. Well, at least most bugs are eliminated in the new game.
Luthier does surprise me with his supporting policy. And mind you: CloD is a very playable game. It's not perfect, it still has some bugs and performane issues, but it's playable and enjoyable. Luthier can stop here and go on making BoM, noone can really blame him, since it's the norm in game industry. But he does not do it, for that alone I'm graceful enough.
Each time I want to complain about the reversed mixture lever in the Spitfire, I talk to myself: well, at least that is historically much more accurate than the Redcoats firing tracers in the XVIII century.

I have no idea what to make of what you just said, but i think if you cut out 90% of what you said ie the empire total war stuff as you have the wrong forum and its irrelivant to this thread, you left with a succulent 10% containing - you calling others in this thread spoiled, and you talking to yourself about redcoats firing tracers so I guess really there is only 5% relevant to this thread in what you said.
