We're playing this again right? Please tell me I didn't waste $10 on this game to play it for an hour with Steve and Randy. . . Right?

No online support. I wouldn't mind it. Battles are the proper length of time to get in some action without them turning into marathons.

People are pissed about the character unlock.

First of all, why the fuck did they name the newer games the same as the old ones?

Secondly, I'm sure you're all just SHOCKED that EA is being accused of greed through microtransactions.

See you on a Steam sale for $15....

Oh no, wait, EA has their own store. Guess I won't see you, ever.

What? This is crazy. Why wouldn't you want Steam, Origin, Blizzard's store, the Microsoft store, the Activision store, the Ubisoft app, and the endless other companies' software all running on your PC at the same time?

EA lowers costs due to backlash.

Still charging $80 for a game with microtransactions...

Microtransactions temporarily removed while they "tweak" the progression system.

I love how EA wants this to read like they're on our side and this is a bug or unintended design.
