Hexenherz 09/26/17 6:02:16 PM #16:	Actually another terrible example I can think of: The Secret World (originally a buy-and-sub-to-play MMORPG, and then switched to the buy-to-play model). If you bought the game on Steam, you'd have to copy your CD Key and register it on the Funcom website to make an account for the game. Earlier this year they released "Secret World Legends" which is a free-to-play model of the game with some updated graphics and slightly different combat mechanics. Funcom literally just updated the storepage for The Secret World into Secret World Legends, and when the game came out on Steam, everyone's copy got overwritten... and CD Keys for the original game became unavailable -_- <cite>Hexenherz posted [p:887344188] in Steam dele...
