Did no-one else find it a little concerning that he was extremely vague about the length of time people will have “ownership” over their farms and virtual purchases? He seemed to almost say the word years and then change his mind and just say “some time” or something similar, and not very convincingly either.

Judging by that interview I’d say it’s best to assume farm cash purchases are more like rentals, in that your not guaranteed ownership for any length of time. Zynga are getting greedy and it’s starting to show in all their games, I’ve lost over 30 neighbours in Farmville since Christmas, and the list is growing constantly.

It’s the 90′s Internet boom and bust all over again, most of these games will die out and fade into obscurity within a fairly short time-frame, all bets are off as to which ones survive and in what form. There’s obviously a reason it’s still Beta, legal protection should they decide to pull it or make drastic changes that affect users purchases, though it must be said they have left a few holes that could lead to legal action in some countries should farmers loose anything they paid “real money” for.

I love the game, but I cant help thinking it’s probably doomed in the long term due to pure greed.
