The game came out in 2021. There are far older games from other publishers still up and getting updates. Stop giving these pump-and-dump games your money.
When did it become the expected norm to receive endless updates for a one time purchase? How is that a "pump-and-dump"? Unless the game is a buggy, broken mess (and maybe it is, I'm not familiar with FC6), once the purchase is made, any additional content or service should be considered a bonus, not a mandate.
Seriously. I realize people have Feelings about DRM and always-online stuff, but this is an article about a game that was never especially popular or active entering maintenance mode after a couple of years.
They aren't shutting it down, they aren't making it unplayable (though of course either of those things could happen at any time etc etc) - they just are no longer producing content for a game almost no one is playing anymore anyway.
