      To be honest, I mainly bought the game to make a statement & show my support for what type of treatment & product I want as a customer. Nowadays everything just seems to want to milk me, games are quite often literally designed around it so that it becomes a core part of the games themselves. And I’m so damn over all of this bullshit.

        A lot of us just want to have some fun after work and it is not fun when you feel served up like a buttered hot meal. I don’t want to feel like my games are consuming me.

        Between my partner and I we’ve spent 850 hours playing BG3 since October.

        That’s more than basically any other “live service” or subscription based game I’ve ever played, especially for the time period.

        Phenomenal game that made the team fabulous amounts of money and won awards while all the consumers left happy.

        Definitely raises the bar for AAA
