This is what happens when you let a pub control a very popular and beloved franchise, they will cash it all in for as long as they can and as long as they are allowed to then they will forevermore. The game is probably going to sell a lot and the plat with the marketing rights is most likely going to be at the center shift for the blame because the more poeple that buy into this and claim "it's fine and perfectly acceptable" then they will like Joe states be a "harm" to the industry itself, the more people that think it's perfectly fine to shell out more money for less content and less quality the more you let your standards sink to rock bottom.
When they first revealed Battlefront I was very skeptical about how it would turn out and then of course fans started to create a checklist of what was missing from this game that the other two had in terms of content, of course over that peroid of time you had the mighty defenders of a game that at the time hardly showed next to any gameplay and in the typical fashion defended a publisher known for ripping their game sinto pieces and selling for more and were willing to go against facts rounded up from emre observation, you know that thing scientists and others do in various other fields, you observe and compare results, it;s not rocket science to conclude that BF has a lot less constant than the other two and being sold at a way higher price is actually worse for value than the two we had before. Simply put there is no "oh they are doing it from scratch let them have this one", no you see doing it from scratch would mean remaking "all" the content from the previous two games and making them in their own image for the upcoming one, not scrapping tons of previous content and not throwing anything in to replace it, that actually means we have less content than what we originally started with, that's total bullshit and I don't see why we should ever defend such a practice.
In the end with this and the original reveal and having played the Beta (which runs extremely well at ultra settings on my setup btw than GTA "optimized" V) I really don't feel it;s remotely worth the asking price, this was more or less the same stance I took with Battlefield 3 and Titanfall and I simply waited until those two were roughly £10 for the base game and int he case for TF the DLC came free with it with the only downside being less players because that's how MP only games are these days, short little vacations from one to the other that don't last nearly as long as say TF2 and CS.
Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
