lol they can do whatever the hell they want. I will never buy a $60 game, let alone 80+

they can all get fucked. i only buy Indy dev games now in the proce range of $1 to 45$ at the most. I typically stick around the 30$ range and have had way more enjoyment, I complete these games and want to revisit them.

I cannot say I have fun with AAAA crap. it's all junk
