    Go ahead and fall for their PR campaign. You wouldn’t be the first and you won’t be the last.

      Fall for what? They did one of the most pro-consumer moves they possibly could. It’s legally solid and irrevocable. It doesn’t mean I have to give a shit about their next live service game or be happy that they monetize soccer video games with gambling for children.
