As gross as the business model is, a lawsuit alleging that it's even possible that a customer thought they were buying anything other than progress for that specific version of that specific game is so obscenely fraudulent that every lawyer involved should be disbarred.

"Pay for progress" shouldn't be legal, but it is, and there's absolutely no legal basis for this lawsuit.
