Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I think the risk they ran is ending up like Cyberpunk, where they don't delay long enough to make a difference. What was it...a week or something that they first delayed the launch, and only within a day of the release? To be clear, I agree they should have delayed, but longer, and the delay should have been announced earlier. If they said it were now slated for a Q2 2024 release, and said so back in late September, it might have been a good move. But nope.
