Quoting: PenglingAccording to this page, it was ultimately lawsuited out of existence, too, and I found this statement (presumably published afterwards?) to be eye-opening.
I can't express how frustrating it is to read about their actions.

I've played and completed The Pedestrian, The Gardens Between and Blackwell 3. I've started Lego City Undercover (crashes sometimes) and Runaway 2 (needs replacement ddraw.dll to fix extremely 1 FPS cursor trouble).

Quoting: benstor214“The newest DENUVO anti-tamper breaks all your mods and now you are criticizing anti-tamper measures? But anti-tamper prevents pesky cheaters from cheating! Certainly you don’t want people to cheat in the game you like? Maybe you are a cheater YOURSELF?!”
The absolute horror – people cheating in single player games :tongue:

Quoting: PenglingI'm still only a relatively recent console expatriate, so seeing quality full games being given away for free in this manner is still very novel to me.
Well they assume that you get the urge to buy Blooming Business: Casino (conveniently linked on the same page) afterwards. :tongue:

And all of the Gladius DLCs. They are only 64,41 € on to of the free base game.

Quoting: PenglingUnusually, as far as I'm aware, even users in Japan have complained about the build-quality problems of the Switch and its infamous controllers that break just from looking at them funny.
I've read so much about troubles with quality of the Joy-Cons, but to be fair poor build quality seems to be everywhere. Logitech has had trouble with the quality of the micro switches for the buttons for a long time and they've stopped using optical mouse wheels and have switched to cheap encoders (OT: encoders are always a huge pain – the biggest German electronics compendium has a very long article for workarounds).

Quoting: LungDragoIt's not just a standard campaign, but a platform for digital role playing.
That's the greatest plus and the greatest disappointment at the same time. It's mainly a toolkit for digital role playing. Even without comparison to Baldur’s Gate (not the greatest story) the main campaign is very weak.

There was a story on BBC Radio 4 about a 10 year old girl that spent more than 2500 Pounds on Roblox micro transactions. The BBC helped the mother get her money back.
