One can argue, that in current situation not buying their games can cause even more damage, for example they can close Wow instead of fixing anything. For example, that preorder money is used to actually develop xpack and that no preorders = even worse quality of xpacks or no xpacks at all. Dunno. Their reports show, that they don't have any problems with money. If they have - then it's actually due to Activision and/or shareholders taking all money to themselves, instead of investing them into development of game itself. It's their problem. We don't pay our money for it to be simply put into Bobby's or shareholders' pockets. We pay money for game. They're busyness, not charity organization? We too. We don't want to pay money to somebody, who just wants to get money for free. It should be product first - money then. Not opposite. Not paying in advance for pig in a sack.
