Did people pay for the game before or after the developer removed any references to it being an MMO?
If they made something that is not an MMO it's only natural that they won't want it to be presented as if it was one, even if they originally intended to create the game as an MMO.
I don't think the game deserves to be cruficied just for failing to reach the goals the devs had in mind, as long as it is not being sold as if it had. Folks can buy the game, realize it's not what they hoped for, refund and move on. Or better yet, hopefully they can realize it's not the game they were expecting based on the store page and not even buy it in the first place.
Now if the dev is misleading people about what the game is, or if people paid for one thing long ago and received another in the end, then nevermind me and carry on.
The email I got from Steam notifying it was available says:
So it still says it's an MMO.
