The comments in here are really disappointing and a reflection of what this community has become, corporate bootlickers.

Excusing companies scamming customers because gamers dared to point out the scam? All because the companies quarterly profits weren’t up enough, is a really toxic state and not what this community should be.

There was no scam. They were upfront about the issues before release.

Stating facts is not bootlicking. It's just being a mature, fair adult about things.

Can you link any prerelease announcements that include the bugs and performance issues?

This vid covers an assortment of the issues, where things stood, and reaction to the news.

Respected YouTuber does the research. .

That was days before the release and in response to an announcement weeks prior.
