Keep crashing out to the homescreen on Total War. Total bummer.

Got Total War working. Didn't realise there was a Civilisation-lite element attached. Never see it in the demos.

Fun game and great time sink for the night-shift.

It was a boiler plate EULA from what I understand, to keep them compliant with Euro regulations regarding the achievement system in the game and only the achievement system. They have since updated the EULA to clarify that they will not be using any of your data for marketing, spyware or otherwise.

Dragon Quest Builders 2 is set to be released on the 12th July this year. With this and the next extension for FF XIV, it's going to be a busy summer...

No more or less than any other game developer. But they updated their EULA so they have opened themselves up to being sued for breaking that agreement if they did. I'm enjoying the game until I have reason to believe they are breaking that agreement.

I should actually clarify: I do trust them more than a lot of other game developers that have actually deserved my mistrust based on behavior. They have not done anything yet and I've been playing it for the past year.

I love the discrepancy between cut-scene and my gameplay in Devil May Cry 5. Nero leaps out of a moving van and lands on the back of a winged imp who he rides like a bucking bronco while sending hell's denizens whence they with an over-sized six-shooter before chopping its head off with a cool but impractical sword then has he launches at the enemies control is handed over to me and it's, "Shit! What are the buttons?!" Hacking aimlessly and barely scraping a D for my effort.
