I've got a couple thousand hours in Rocket League over the years but Epic has successfully made it so insufferable that I haven't played it in about a year. Such a shame.

Stop killing games? What about stop fucking up games?

We seriously need to have a long conversation about what constitutes a refund on a game. I got several thousand hours of good times out of this game but the game that I paid for is no longer available.

The thing is, you never paid for a "game" in the first place. You paid for a license with a whole boatload of conditions.

The thing that needs to be fixed is not refunds, but what "buying" something digital means in the first place.

Shut the fuck up with your pedantic points. We are broadly talking about having fun with a game. Who the fuck cares if I don't own it after 10 years? People mature, fads fade, and games get stale. Do I like it? No. But I am not going to derail all other conversations to make it about the point I am determined to shove into every around me. Fuck off.
