I got permabanned from the Steam forum for calling them out.
Because I linked the Alternative Mod Launcher (which I'd done tons previously), and called out Take Two. Then answered someone who asked why I got banned, then got permabanned for "discussing mod actions"...which isn't fucking against the rules. The person who specifically asked about mod actions was not punished, but I was permabanned for saying I couldn't talk about it. LOL.
I've had games added to my Steam library without paying for them, companies get desperate and throw them out in the hopes it bumps play numbers. I still have no idea where some DLC packs I have came from because I know for a fact I was avoiding them like the plague.
I somehow gained "ownership" of the Brave New World DLC for Civ... 5? And know I never bought it. Only had Gods and Kings as BNW did not have great reviews about some of the mechanics it changed. One day after not playing it for some months it was simply there when I reinstalled it.
In the hopes they would get better and I’d have a leg-up on the DLC. Warhammer 3 & Victoria 3 were disasters at launch, but turned into good games that I’m glad I preordered. Still waiting on Civ VII and CoH 3 though. lol
That's a weird reason, it's not like they're going to run out of copies of the game and the price will only get lower with time. So, why not wait and see if they can turn it into a good game before giving them any money?
Civ 7 is in my Steam library never-installed. lol
So much cope that every time Firaxis releases a patch that this will finally be the one that quiets the critics.
I just figure every time Firaxis/2K/Take Two release a patch it's for their toxic fucking launcher, or some other anti-consumer nonsense.
I have no expectations for these fucks, despite XCOM being probably my most played game.
Fuck these assholes.
Seriously, they make EA/Ubi look friendly by comparison.
Ah yes, the X-COM 2 experience. A game which hasn't had a content update since October 2018 but still gets updates because of that retarded launcher.

they really give out free copies to random strangers on steam?
i thought you'd have to be an "influencer" to recieve such "gifts"

Especially since the series peaked way back on 4.
