Ok so SE IV is dead because no one on the SE V official site plays it.

Nobody said anything of the sort... All anyone has said is that they doubt that there are more people playing SE4 than SE5 overall. Retail tends to bring in a lot more customers in a short period of time than Internet sales, afterall... That doesn't imply that SE4 is dead, and it doesn't imply that there isn't anyone new to the series that winds up preferring SE4...

"...marginalized as "old-time fans" because that would be a totally unfair characterization. "

...what? Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed today? There was no "marginalization" implied or expressed in my post. I don't see how "old-time fans" can be construed as a negative term... It is merely a statement as to the length of time one has been playing the game(s). I fit under that category. Does that mean I was trying to marginalize myself?

I take, it because someone likes se4 over se5, that the only excuse for that fopa would be that they are an old-time fan?

What thread are you reading, exactly?
