You bought it and have played it. Now you need to pay if you want more. Those who buy it now, haven't gotten to enjoy it for the year you have. You've gotten your $60 of enjoyment. Nothing is free. No company can sustain itself by doing handouts. You act as if you've done them a favor by playing. I don't understand the fuss. I've spent more on a dinner. Seriously, 1 meal and it didn't require an entire company of programmers years to build.
