And why they're my pick is because they've been prioritizing elitist gamers over generally everyone of all skill levels. This is evident when you are penalized for leaving matches in Casual Mode that escalates from 5 minutes to even hours. Basically limiting and restricting your playtime on a game people had once paid for.

And I say once paid for because this game once had a price tag along with DLCs. Sometime a few years ago, Psyonix sold itself to Epic Games and flipped Rocket League to Free-to-Play or Freemium. They delisted the game from Steam and unless you had been accumulating anything before the delisting, you are SOL.

In the Epic Games version of Rocket League, you have to build back up everything that was once readily available when it was on Steam. Having to pick up common body parts, having to pick up decals, flags, wheels .etc

All of these are just one continual dump after another from Psyonix on the fans that truly are there to have a fun time and not be a foaming drooling tryhard of an elitist player.

In 1983 or so I bought a Japanese themed RPG for the Apple IIe published by EA.

It didn't like the disk drive we had, so the copy protection would reboot over and over.

There were only two models of disk drive for the Apple IIe.

EA has always been this way.

You have used up your limit of 3 installs, if you want to play buy a new disk.

Luckily a family friend was good with computers and managed to force it to work anyway but it was my first and last experience with EAs bullshit.
