When will people learn? Seriously. They keep touching fire and act equally surprised every time they get burned.

No Man’s Sky. (Great now but holy hell was it a shit show)

Cyberpunk

Diablo IV

Far Cry 6

StarField

And now this latest Assasins Creed: Mirage.

Probably forgetting plenty of recent releases too that just faded into nothingness.

Personally, I’ll be starting Batman Arkham Asylum this weekend. Heard it was pretty good. Should keep me busy for a while.

          I know, and I didn’t pre order anything for a very long time (and don’t plan to). But unfortunately as long as some players get attracted with this kind of shitty “exclusive” the whole community will have to suffer from the companies pushing this behavior.

            Be vocal about it with everyone you know. Change someone’s mind and encourage them to do the same.

      I don’t pre-order but what’s wrong with it? Buy right before release and then ask for a refund if you don’t like it.

      I did it ONCE and got burned so bad I’ve never even considered it ever again. Just Cause 4. So bad, it’s not even on the lists of biggest letdowns. A letdown of letdowns.
