Good for you! You played a game so much you personally stopped caring. But that's just you and you alone.

There are whole communities out there that are all about retro games. You're throwing them all under the bus for being perfectly fine about something no longer being playable due to an arbitrary and otherwise avoidable reason.

This citizen initiative, if successful, has the power to change the way games are built from the ground up, and is the sort of "tide lifts all boats" thing that'll only end up benefiting everyone.
