to be honest, I think valve could've avoided all this hate by making l4d2 exactly as they have, but with the original cast. I think thats what sparked this whole "boycott" shit, justified by saying valve doesn't care about their game. I don't think the new cast is all that bad (with the exception of rochelle, shes boring as fuck), but ya'll oldfags are pissed that they scrapped the old guys.
