They are no more young guys with crazy ideas, now they are two old farts that want to make money. Sadly this is showing and will show in their creations.
Because they are just two old farts their ideas are 20 or 30 years old, back they did great things because they did not cared about income, now i expect more call of duty or halo clones.
Even their best achievements released today would miserably fail, while i wish to get new game like quake 1 was, there is no hope it will be success.
Same goes for new mmo wow clones, even if they are superior to original, one just cannot play it for years and not get bored.
Quake had its time, but those guys in pursuit of more $$$ seem to be blind for that.
Also expectations. Everybody and their dog expects something great from them, just like with Duke Nukem Forever, if they do not deliver they will be burried alive.
