So it's no longer enough to wait for reviews before deciding whether to buy or not, now you have to wait a few months longer to see whether the devs add crappy features they held back to deceive the reviewers. That's just fucking fantastic.

If we allow this to continue, there will be nothing else.

Only legislation will fix this.
