For me it was a little known game called ThinkTanks. It was created as a demo for a companies game engine and never got much support. It was a silly little catoon tank game with basic 3D.

The community figured out how to bypass the demo restrictions on the game engine. The game was modded to an insane degree. Thousands of new maps, new game types and objects. I dabbled with it at the time and created around 70 maps personally.

Last I check the original game was someone like 8mb of space. The full mod pack with all of the maps was 2GB

Translation for those unfamiliar with MBA speak.

“The executive team are all fucking morons and screwed up a easy cash cow. So now we are going layoff the people who didn’t kiss our asses properly.”

This will kill new development on the engine and older games without who have a limited number of users.

The ones halfway or more through development to recently launched will have to move to subscriber model or a shit-ton of ads.

In the next 3-5 years however their profits will likely be up. So some larger company will likely buy them out.
