It is so strange and incredible reading americans having issues with auto payments. But I presume you do not have anything like Direct Debit, and the protections that some with that, like having to notify you well in advance of payment changes, or if the wrong amount is taken you get it back.

You can also cancel it directly from your bank app as well, no messing around, its a simple 2 click process.

As a PC Gamer, why would I block it?

I am not overly interested in the game, don't care if it gets spoilt because it won't be on PC for a few years probably. I am not going to be able to avoid spoilers for that long.

There has been no official gameplay. And honestly, I don't have enough time. There is way too many games to play to be worried about 1.

My backlog is long and scary... And it's getting longer

It's a shame, because they have been involved in some great games. Especially early on, with games like time shift and inversion (being pretty good lower budget games), and then World War Z and leading into Space Marine 2 with their fun horde tech.

Their stance here though is the nail in the coffin though, well maybe shotgun to the feet. Will steer clear of them now.

Ohhh, this will probably be a controversial take, but I am going to frame if to "most disappointing" instead of least favourite.

Batman Arkham City.

Firstly, it is still a great game. I am not stupid enough to say it's bad. And it is better than Origins and Knight.

But, Asylum is such a beautiful and intricate game with some of the best level design. It is an almost perfect Metroidvania. And then they jumped to the open world for the rest of the games.

That jump, doesn't particularly add anything, and while Gotham looks great, it is mostly empty and skipped over as you glide and hook to the next indoor section. Outside of some challenges and riddler trophies, it actually is just terrible padding of low level mobs for the most part.

The reason I chose City over knight is precedent, that first jump to open world for me really reduced how much I was invested in the world/areas of the game.

I still love it, and the improvement to combat and gadgets are great, but Asylum will always be king of the Batman games(City is a close but disappointing 2nd)

Also to add on to this, while we are in a cost of living crisis, that doesn't mean people can't save money towards purchases like this either. If you started putting back 5 or 10 a month since it was announced you'd have plenty saved, especially with the delays.

I don't think it's a good idea considering we haven't seen anything yet, but I am not their audience.

I see a lot of people saying everyone is mad, but can't say I have really seen many (or any), actually mad.

I have seen a lot of disappointment and indifference. From the people who had put rockstar on some pedestal it's mostly disappointment as they can't believe they would be that scummy. For others not hyped, its an advert.

I am a little surprised, but not shocked they would stoop to getting paid for it. But I am much closer to anti rockstar these days, and have no interest in gta6 anymore.

It is a shame you found it crazy intensive. Would be interested in hearing what other games you play, and what other fighting games you have played as well.

I don't disagree that tokon has a lot going on, but I don't think the barrier to entry is too bad either. When you compare it to something like Marvel Rivals, Overwatch, League of Legends and so on, the entry and starting point is pretty simple, just different and maybe feels alien to a lot of people.

I don't know when it was but realising the American dream was garbage, and I don't want to travel to the USA was strange.

It wasn't like a big hit to the face, it was just a slow crumbling of the idea from media.

When you watched friends and saw people in these massive apartments, or huge mcmansions in other shows, it was always something to strive towards, now I actively dislike it. I would hate to live somewhere like that.

There are(were at least, who knows how much longer they will last) some incredible and beautiful places in America, but I also don't want to risk my life flying there (and it isn't the planes).

For me, I am choosing 1, if I am having a wooden floor, I would rather paint the walls. Or keep the walls and re-carpet it.

I would probably re-carpet myself. Something soft so it's a more cozy space, where you want to be relaxing barefoot (no shoes allowed kinda deal).

I would always leave the "brick work" exposed. That being painted is a crime, as it is a center piece of the room. I also don't think I would paint the beams black, I prefer them wooden.
