You two seem to rely a lot on what other people say/think about the company making the game without having played the actual game, fine, I don't work that way.

Even though I played Diablo one and two as I said in my post.

If MMO's and monthly fees don't suit you, then don't play the games.

Not going to change a thing. Do you not see how scammy that is? You'll just end up paying large multiples of what the game should actually cost.

The F2P model exists and that's that. Don't like it? Then don't play the games.

Because every game is F2P. Not seeing your point here. And don't use that dated and exhausting "Don't like <x>? Don't <y> it" thing, because it means nothing. If there's something shitty, people have the right to call it out.

About the accepting thing, well, I haven't explained what I meant yet and you barf all over the place about what you think I meant, very much expected. Let's take EA as an example. EA and their studios make games for everyone, action games, adventure games, strategy games etc. games like FIFA and The Sims. A new Sims game is released, Sims 7. I think it's very, very ignorant to say:

Correction: EA forces companies they absorb to push out various types of games quickly.

As for the rest of your argument, I have Dragon Age Ultimate on Steam. It's a good game, (except the fade part with the Sloth demon. Horrible section, and very long. Made me stop playing the last time I went through)...and the difficulty curve is stupid from the Spirit Apparatus and upwards.

However, EA then stepped in to make things "interesting", and Dragon Age 2 was rushed out the door and most people say it sucks. I won't play it unless it becomes very cheap or if I want to eventually torrent it so that I can avoid being ducked over...as I do with all of the other EA games except those times, it's torrent all the way.

This without looking into the actual game. Should you really include the reputation of the publisher/developer as an important aspect before you even try the game?

Yes, but for me, only to the point where I won't pay them a dime considering I don't want to risk being locked out of a game I actually payed for because their DRM is atrocious and people have had issues getting keys to work and the company just responds with "Buy another".

Also, Pandaria has been a part of the Warcraft universe before World of Warcraft.

I don't play the game, so how can you really blame me for expecting Pandaria and pandas to be a new thing when an expansion releases that is called that? And no, I've not even been interested enough to research the game because...I don't play it and I really don't care.
