Greedy company with weird hypocritical principles. It’s ok to release games with over-bloated and confusing mechanics but at the same time rips tons of options and much interesting mechanics. Not the mention amount of money they demand just to get the game to a more appropriate and fun to play state. Maybe they should consider themselves as controversial and make some actual changes.
