I understand greed perfectly well. I mean, you could write a comedy sketch about it at this point. "No Sir, we absolutely did not create these absolutely fabulous pieces of gear during the development of the game. Nope, not even a pixel! And this gun? This terrific looking and powerful gun that makes all the guns in the game seem meek? Totally something our gun designer thought of when he was taking a piss the SECOND after we stopped development. And this quest line that perfectly fits together with most of the game and completely changes the introduction of our sequel? Well..that's just us being VERY good writers and not at all greedy bastards who cut off important bits of the story so we can nickle and dime you for it!"
Then you would have someone coming in and smack them around with a trout, because reasons.
Oh and in case you think I'm hyperboling, the examples in the sketch are all taken from actual bullshit that's happened already.
