I saw that earlier today their entire accounts were locked out (prompting this tweet). I have no idea what caused the lockout but Terraria is a huge game. Google is simply one of the worst-run of the big tech companies out there; so little sensible logic and the fact that they kill services/products so quickly without giving them chance to grow or without understanding the markets they enter in the first place, just highlights a complete lack of care for their users.
Not to sound all ‘hail-corporate’ but compared to Microsoft, who also make stupid decisions and pull out of markets prematurely from time to time, it’s a night and day difference. I will never forget a friend’s response, who’s differently abled, when the Adaptive Controller came out; it changed her life, literally, as she was able to play games she hadn’t in years. I would argue that project will never recoup its R&D costs, but the fact that Phil and MS were willing to do something altruistic like that, simply because it’s the right thing to do is something I don’t often attribute to Big Tech, especially not Google these days.
