Misostasy
A strong, existential hatred or distaste for the state of things, how things must be, or how things turn out to be, in the world we live in.
From Greek “katástasi”, meaning “state”, and “miso”, meaning “hate”.
Those who adopt a misostatic worldview are often seen as “negative nancies” or “debbie downers”, when in reality, they’re just acknowledging how the world actually is; a predominantly negative place.

Considering how harsh reality can be, the misostasy in his arguments is more than justified.
Example:
Person 1: Man, I absolutely hate how most people are statistically more likely to become corporate slaves than celebrities. I think I’m going to become a misostatist.
Person 2: You mean a pessimist?
Person 1: Nah, pessimists are needlessly negative, unlike misostatists.

abandonware
n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
