- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

This is what I was afraid of 15 years ago. I couldn't tell you the last time I bought a AAA game. This release is so disgusting.
They expect you to spend $60 on a game plus microtransactions?
I put away 50 to 100+ hours into games that cost me $15. Why doesn't everybody else do this? Does high-end 3D graphics actually matter that much to people?
$70 nowadays.
Get fucked Capcom. Can always dig through backlog until it's reasonably priced and not a buggy mess.
Japanese company and poor business decisions are a match made in heaven. After success its almost like they race to shoot themselves in the foot.
EA, Activision blizzard, Ubisoft, 2k games and many more. I think you meant "AAA gaming companies and poor business decisions are a match made in heaven".
