At the beginning of the strike, we announced that the strike will continue, until THQ releases the afore-mentioned patch and, in addition, changes their patch policy. THQ themselves could not be convinced to make a statement during those two weeks. Hence we decided to end the strike ahead of time, because with continuation of the strike, we would mainly harm GSC and their project Clear Sky, which is not, and never has been, our goal at any time.
Despite the premature end, we don't think the strike has failed completely. We made some interesting experiences and a big number of potential buyers will think twice before purchasing a title that is published by THQ.
