EA Pulls Crysis, Command & Conquer 4 from Steam
https://techraptor.net/gaming/news/ea-pulls-crysis-command-conquer-4-from-steam
Electronic Arts has removed the original Crysis from Steam along with Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight, the latter of which was one of the worst-rated games on Steam.

Not surprising, but they could have given some notice in advance.

Maybe they've removed Crysis because people bought the original and modded it instead of buying the remaster. It won't surprise me if they do the same with 2 & 3 one the remasters launch. 

Only the biggest fans will miss C&C 4.

I really, really hope that at least one of the manufacturers comes up with a (preferably hardware) solution to stop this f*cking mining nightmare because right now it's our problem, but in the not too distant future it will also be theirs, After all, who the f*ck is going to spend 6-700 € on just a GPU to play videogames when they can get a console that's cheaper and more powerful than said card?

Yea it's a disgrace and it could be setting a really bad precedent for future GPUs. Imo in the current market, if a person wants to buy a GPU alone, they should commit and get a 3060 Ti or above. Because that is what it takes to get above console level performance in Raster and should keep people gaming for a very long time. The best idea is probably going to be buying a prebuilt that's reasonably priced. Realistically it's hard to judge when it's going to stabilize but some people have been waiting for over a year to buy a new GPU and they do have to commit at some point. And they should commit to buying one that while priced above what it should be, will give them fap worthy performance for a long time.

I don't know if you've posted the last graph, but GPU prices have kept going up this past month. No point in waiting for a price drop that won't happen.

At this point is either waiting for Black Friday, hoping that a store will go insane and put a card at MSRP, which would actually be a quite big discount, or simply skip this gen and pray that things go back to "normal" with the next ones.
