While all the others I feel are self-explanatory, I will explain why I feel Digital Downloads and Pre-Loading is wrong IMHO. The convenience is great that's obvious what may not be is it is not as competitively priced if they have a captive market, competition is good. Used game market will also die.
There may be others I have have missed or couldn't fit in, so please feel free to list other concerns you have if I have not included them or comment on the poll options above if you want.
Edit: [b]Dishonourable mentions
Pre-orders & Day 1DLC
Split screen not being included as standard.
Renting servers
EA Access & the ilk [/b]

Imo unfinished/broken and paid dlc go hand in hand.
-
Paid DLC and unfinished games should be one, seems like developers now are cutting content that should be in the game and then selling that content as DLC. Destiny is a perfect example.
-
Where's the [i]all of the above[/i] option? Each item given in the poll are things that shouldn't be done in gaming at all.
-
Oh my god all of these. So many angry, teeth grinding issues.
-
Just thought I should share.
-
Why is digital downloads and pre downloads concerning? Both are great things.
-
I've seen this brought in gameinformer a few years back. They talked about how unjust it was that developers can release an unfinished game to make deadlines and release a patch a month later to actually finish the game. As well as release patches to modify parts to change the game such as weapon damage or health when you paid for a game that shouldn't need changes.
-
Unused next-gen capabilities
-
How is this still on highest rated?
-
I'd say the mass number of games released with huuuge bugs and a giant patch, and day one dlc. Utter nonsense. I don't see nintendo releasing broken games with 10 gigabyte patches on day one.
-
Unfinished or broken games obviously.
-
*Cough *Cough EA and Ubisoft *cough *cough
-
Preorder bonus insanity.
-
wanna change to all of the above
-
I dont mind micro transactions in free to play games but i do have a problem with micro transactions in a AAA title like assassins creed unity
-
I HATE FREEMIUM games. Mobile gaming is devolved into straight trash. Very hard to find a title with a purchase price. I think warframe may be the first to really test the waters of this model on consoles. Killer instinct too. They should be ashamed of themselves.
-
Why isn't there a vote option for all of the above?
-
I need a place to go complain about Ubisoft and how they treat us like crap. Where do I go?
-
Pre orders and day 1 dlc are the most harmful to both the consumer and market by far. Putting them as an honourable mention makes no sense whatsoever.
-
All of the above.
-
Edited by sample text: 2/19/2015 1:22:36 PMwhat destiny did (unfinished, dlc, pre order/digital pre order, and terrible servers) Also it didn't deliver what was promised [spoiler]and the dlc wasn't worth $20[/spoiler]
-
Season pass that doesn't include all dlc
-
-
Constant uncreative recycled game sequels ex cod
-
Destiny. Need I say more?
-
I didn't have internet one day and knew I couldn't play destiny So I went to play dragon age inquisition and to my surprise I couldn't play the story mode because it couldn't connect to the EA servers....... Bullshit
