      Is it a “review bomb” for complaining about a legit problem with the game that stops you from playing?

        But it was included in the game launch announcement? People getting mad about not reading before clicking is absurd.

          I’ve worked retail and promise you: A sign could be flashing Hunter Orange, have several arrows pointing to it, with a dozen Vegas Peacock Dancers behind, four trumpets blaring, and be the size of a billboard, and people still won’t read it.

            And is that the fault of the business? No. Entitled consumers bitching about something that was plainly communicated on the store page and upon game launch, and clicked to accept the terms is still ridiculous.

              The requirement was disabled. Most people aren’t lawyers and shouldn’t be expected - or legally obligated - to read a legal document before engaging in an everyday task. Do you want life to be like this, boot-licker?

              Just want to jump on the train of calling you a bootlicker for defending piece of shit corpos and ignoring human nature :)

              Listen I try to read every agreement myself, but I missed this one too. Was this something you really caught and understood on reading the EULA?

              I also hate EULAs being AFTER purchase and download.

      It’s not review bombing if the criticisms are legitimate. Forcing people to link accounts multiple months into a game is a legitimate gripe.
