  • GTA VI console exclusive from Rockstar (everone knows they wants Sony extra money+double dip on their loyal PC userbase)

    Bethesda customer support trying to convince the unhappy players leaving bad Steam reviews that the game isn’t that bad.

    Unity burning up all their goodwill over a weekend announcing new predatory, retroactive pricing changes that would bankrupt many smaller players in the mobile space?

      This is probably the real biggest one. Even if they walked back on it, it came close to crippling the games industry being that unity is absolutely the number one engine for indie games.

    I’d add to the list : Devs and publishers doubling down on releasing shitty PC ports that lead enthusiasts thinking that a 24GB VRAM GPU is the standard.

    I don’t really think that something being a console exclusive is an “F.U.”, unless they claimed that they would support certain OSs/systems and then backed down.

    Unity being unity is a contender for monetary reasons.
    Starfield is a contender for Bethesda continuing to push out broken/unfinished games.
    The Day before for just being a scam.
    The many jobs cuts in the gaming field
    All of the anti-cheat software that still makes games actively worse and bans people on Linux.
