Free-to-play Shooter Survarium Will Shut Down In May

I am kind of disappointed and almost feel robbed of something. I consider that simply shutting down the servers is controversial for the game which is online only. That means anyone who have ever played the game they just lose everything. And money wise that is not big deal to me (but I know people who spent quite a bit of money on it), but the time is. I reckon I spent maybe £20 in game when they had discounts or harder times, so it was my sort of contribution for the future of the game, but likewise I have spent like 2200 hours playing it as a "alpha and beta tester". To be fair game sucked, especially in early days, but many people played believing they helping the project, so it is kind of unfair just leave all those players with completely nothing. I really think Vostok Games should consider issuing offline patch/lan server option before killing it. I appreciate that it is F2P and that by now people simply stopped purchasing stuff in store, game was kind of stale for a while. EFT kind of took away major chunk of community there, Stalker 2 coming next year (hopeful) and it was really the end of it, let's not forget this was stop-gap before or instead Stalker 2, So it make sense that they killing the game as it no longer pays for itself and they are not in business of charity. Yet I think just shutting it down means that all the time and all the money which was spent on the game is in vain, so company kind of owns it to the community to leave a lifeline for the game, give an options for the fans to host it and play it from time to time, not just destroy it forever.
