I suspect that this is dictated by the rules of cooperation of the makers of rulset with SmiteWorks - they get a percentage on sales for 12 months from the publication of their work. So after 12 months they care about publishing a new rulset, and old ... you can forget about it.
I think it's not fair, owners of the older version of the rulset should be able to buy a new version with a significant discount, especially if in terms of substantive content, not much changes there.
I admit that while I think FG is a very good tool for running RPG sessions and I appreciate people who develop it and build new rulsets, this approach is disappointing for me. I feel stretched to buy an underdone product that has almost no chance of improvement.
I will gladly return the underdeveloped MGT1 rulset and buy MGT2.
