    How kind of them to remind us that a live-service game is still a live-service game, and that arrowhead is still owned by a for-profit corporation.

    I still plan to play, though. Wasn’t account linking already required for crossplay, or was that a separate thing?

      Are there so many non profit organizations in game development and publishing that a reminder was required?

        If you take a look at its reception, the community definitely treats it like a major departure from other live service game practices. I’d tend to agree— the price, micro transactions, content and quality all seem very fair compared to other live service games in the space.
