Also that they will raise prices, offer a very consumer unfriendly contract, apply false advertising through influencers and try to bait you into a worse PC by switching specs as soon as you hit rent instead of buy. Also the claimed fps numbers you'd hit remain the same on those lower specced PCs apparently and even then they're not consistent.

Not to mention advertising as rent to own but have explicit language in the contract saying this is not rent to own.
