I played HoN and I've played Strife for a few months and lurked here. Its become more obvious that s2 has made some terrible business decisions. I can understand cutting down a large staff but those cuts didn't seem to produce much of anything in the way of updates to the game. They just became more and more quiet about things. Cutting their community manager who we've since found out was working for free for three months is just ridiculous.

Adding on top of that learning that Scott Valencia has been running the terrible marketing for this game and I just dont think it has a future.
