Always good to see someone in the industry push back on all of these shitty tactics the AAA publishers want to push.

    I swore off buying ‘new’ games close to their release dates because I was sick of overpriced, unfinished games that are just trying to squeeze every cent out of me. Then BG3 came out and everyone raved how great it was, but I stuck to my principles and said I’d play it a year or so after its release. Then someone pointed out to me that the game plays well, has no charge for online play, doesn’t have microtransactions, and is complete. So I bought it, figuring that this is the type of game we should be rewarding, and I’ve not been disappointed.
