As review copies made their rounds, details came out about the game that includes Star Wars Battlefront 2’s wildly expensive hero/villain unlocks, requiring countless hours of play in order to amass enough credits to purchase just one character. The restrictions that were uncovered, combined with EAs poor solution to the backlash just made it worse.
So, before the game even DICE and it wasn’t long before even other developers jumped on the bandwagon to criticize them for the mess ups.
Gaijin Entertainment took to War Thunder’s official Facebook page to post an image poking fun at the hated Reddit comment that has broken the record for the most downvotes on Reddit in history, and boasted about how you can “play the bad guys for free”.
Blizzard also jumped on the opportunity to poke some fun while announcing StarCraft II will be moving to free to play.
