Clearly foul play from EA.
I have just looked through my Library to discover I actually own (unspecified time rentals) 35 EA games inc this one. I must of acquired these games during steam sales as I have not played most of them. Would Valve still consider a refund if not played after 14 days?. I will no longer be purchasing any games published under the EA umbrella going forward.
Anyway they better not break Dirt Rally as I have just opened a huge can of worms getting into "sim racing" and are discovering the many pitfalls in relation to hardware support on Linux. Would welcome any purchase advice regarding Wheels, Frames etc. I do have a Logitec G29 but looking for a DD solution.

I am currently running a 5950x so dont need an upgrade but I am considering an upgrade to a 9950x. I will wait for reviews first and I might also wait and see if AMD announce a 9950 X3D SKU.

Highly recommend picking up this game.
I have put 470 hours into this one so far and is 3rd in my top played list behind CS1 and Stationeers. Game now runs through steam proton with virtually no issues whatsoever.
Really looking forward to 1,0

Paradox Interactive completely cancelled Life by You (update Paradox Tectonic to close)

Its sad to see another PDX game get cancelled.
I guess PDX are in financial trouble because there is no way they would just throw away what is potentially an extremely profitable game for no reason. Unless they have had a dispute with EA behind the scenes.
I worry for the future of CS2 after its disastrous launch as well as the upcoming PA2 release. I fear dark times are ahead for PDX.

I am glad that NVidia appear to now be slowly opening up their driver stack. Hopefully in future this will force HDMI forum to open up HDMI 2.1.
Hope this is just the beginning.

This has got to be a joke right?
It was the retailers who abandoned the PC market in favour of the console market. If were not for Valve and Steam then PC gaming would have completely disappeared.
As for digital distribution, There are plenty of other platforms on offer. Steam is dominant because they actually LISTEN to gamers.
Hopefully this lawsuit will be tossed out into the trash.
Edit.
Excessive Pricing, I don't see any complaints against MS, Sony, Nintendo.
As for DLC and added content. I have purchased added content from 3rd party stores in the past and redeemed on steam So don't get this argument.

Yes, Another Doom game.
Was not a fan of Eternal so hope the game is more like 2016.
