Don't buy gearbox games. Pitchford is a self important head in the sands salesman. Along with Tim Sweeny, they're a couple of the most used car salesman types in gaming

    I can think of just 1 guy who is even more of a used car salesman... Chris Roberts. Literally has been selling digital spaceships like used cars. Including the actual prices of the digital ships being roughly the same as a used car.

    As a diehard fan of the Wing Commander series, you take that back right now! Right now!

    I bought, and still have, every single Wing Commander game released as they launched. Core experience of my early gaming days.

    All kidding aside, Star Citizen is a steaming shit pile of a grift that has gone on for far too long.

    Can't forgive them for the cash cow they turned Risk of Rain into. Such a perfect game that I sunk hundreds of hours into to get me through the pandemic. They buy the series, release a quarter-baked DLC that simultaneously makes changes to the base game for everyone, spends a year fixing it, then announces another DLC as soon as they fix the problems they created with the 1st one. All while ramping up their merch lineup like the over $100 TTRPG version.
