It’s much better performance wise now, but you better have a good internet connection because at the first sign of a dropped package the whole thing breaks down…

Then they must be held liable for what they allow to spread on their platforms

Paying for it is not the problem at all, in fact it’s preferred over a freemium model.

The practices I mostly refer to are:

• microtransactions in any context;
• requiring additional software (PSN overlay) that doesn’t support all platforms;
• PSN account requirement for a game that’s sold on Steam (have they forgotten about the shitshow that was Helldivers II?).

EDIT: history has also told us that paying upfront for a hero shooter doesn’t work out in the long term if the game wants any shot at being popular, just look at Overwatch’s failure to capitalize on it’s momentum by not becoming free-to-play earlier (and everything else wrong with Blizzard and their management).

I was completely abducted into the Tetris universe by Tetris Effect: Connected and started playing it on a regular basis through different versions such as Jstris and TETR.IO. Ever since this I’ve been watching movies about Tetris and keeping up with the game’s community so this announcement definitely gets me excited for a “docu-game” on the series. I’m all for it!
