Title explains it all, what's the worst game publisher you know?

Nexon.

I've spent money on their games and they still treat me like a freeloader. 2 years ago I could no longer play anything on my account because it was tied to an email address I had tied to my personal website, which I let go defunct at some point. I sent in a ticket, and they closed it with a reply saying "check out this link to handle your issue". The link just led to their main page and nothing else, I gave up.

I tried again weeks ago, explaining they sent me on a wild goose chase the last time around, and after a week of waiting for any kind of response - they reply with "more information needed", but not a single reply as to WHAT information was needed. So I replied "what are you even looking for? I can answer any security questions posed prior" and explained that I never used a CC for thier games, and instead bought NX cards at target and 711. It's been a "work in progress" for just as long as it took to get that lame reply now, again.

I am 100% certain that their customer support just flags issues and then lets them sit until it backs up heavily and they close them all at once. Worst company on the fucking planet - and that's not even mentioning their horrible methodology involving F2P games. If it's not gachapon gambling, it's outright ridiculous setbacks - like in Mabinogi, where they remove access to half your bank and inventory (thusly losing items placed in it) until you buy items to bring it back, once you hit a certain level.

If I keep getting the runaround over trying to access Vindictus again, then I am never playing anything of theirs ever again - and I was a paying customer too.

EA Games, because they destroyed Command and Conquer after acquiring Westwood studios. I will never forgive their transgression.

Nexon, their games are mediocre and the support is non existent.

They wont let me play some of their games.

IGG

Lucas Arts.  

Killed their own IP with 2 different game developers.

(not to mention the franchise that started it all for them.)

Nexon. No respect for players, terrible customer service and lastly, p2w.

EA

Funcom !

Activision, Due to the fact they completely ditched the PC community after COD4.

EA Games.

I think EA, closely followed by SOE.  But there are just so many to choose from.

I thought funcom was just a developer and always has someone else publish their games?  Isn't EA publishing TSW?

Nexon is now on my radar because my old Atlantica account is now apparently gone, I played back with ndoors and when the game was first out.  So my L90+ character who had a few lincenses in bank and I put a few $$ into, nothing major but a few $$ is all gone it seems.  Not that I can get them to answer or respond to any customer support ticket I sent in, lol.   Oh well I may make a new Atlantica account to mess around in till GW2.

But for me despite liking Free Realms and some other SOE games, SOE has to be the worst because of what they did to SWG.  I am one of the ones who will never ever forget or forgive them for that.

I have to go with OP...

Nexon,

Frogster,

EA.

1  EA for killing my favorite games.   Rainbow Six games where the best shooter, fun maps and quick spawn.  

2  Lucas Arts and SOE for killing my favorite mmo with a slow death from cutting off development.

3  Funcom for broken promises.
