    The comments in here are really disappointing and a reflection of where this community has gone in general.

    Excusing toxic gamer communities, accusing the developer of things for pointing it out? All because the game not in a good state is toxic in itself and really not what this community should be.

    This place gets worse every week.

      The comments in here are really disappointing and a reflection of what this community has become, corporate bootlickers.

      Excusing companies scamming customers because gamers dared to point out the scam? All because the companies quarterly profits weren’t up enough, is a really toxic state and not what this community should be.

        There was no scam. They were upfront about the issues before release.

        Stating facts is not bootlicking. It’s just being a mature, fair adult about things.
