As a real software developer, I can tell you I'd prefer to lose my job a 1000 times over than screwing with my customers, which I think is unprofessional and plain wrong. And even if I lost my job, there'd sure be lots of IT jobs I could get in, it's not like we're in some undeveloped industry, there's a great demand of IT professionals in this modern world.

Wrong... the game is actually supported for as long as patches are being developed, and not all things are necessarily fixed. In Ubisoft, I think that's no longer than 1 year. Sure, other titles keep getting released, which shows some support of the franchise (and the will of the Devs to keep doing cool stuff), but... would you say that SH3 is still being supported? Or SH4? They could have used at least an additional patch or 2. SH5 is out so continued support of older titles is probably pointless, but it's not like support was dropped today.
