es chupi fantastico, viva israel!!
fun with my boys
This game is sooo terrible. My PC seems to be on it's deathbed the second it knows it's open,
They delete accounts for inactivity then make them hard to recover. That's a scummy tactic given the account-tied microtransactions they force you in to. All around shameful that this is the best representation of Catan we can get.
One of the worst games I've ever played.
Horrible performance...

PCGames like Titanfall 2, for the pilot or for the Titan
Titanfall 2's campaign changed its own rules every mission. Games like Titanfall 2 that keep one part of it — the wall-running, the mech, or a campaign that never settles.
