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.

Big N could make losses for decades to come and still have lots of cash to spend but it won't come to that because they make stupid amounts of cash with merchandising alone. So no, you and I likely won't live to see their bankruptcy and I honestly couldn't care less anyway. I just won't buy their stuff and that's that. They also have not changed. They've been this way since the Donkey Kong vs. King Kong lawsuit and a long history of harassing fans going back 20 years and more.

I've repeatedly heard that they could operate at a loss for decades and be fine... But I've never actually seen real numbers to back that up.
