@TomMcShea @Necrotron Oh, I totally agree with your initial assessments, don't get me wrong, which I why I love whenever it comes up to hear all the groans from everyone on the podcasts.
I just hope to be pleasantly surprised and proven wrong, as Kevin keeps saying, even though I expect it to be exactly what everyone fears.
Watched Total Biscuit do a live stream of this and yeah, it was hilariously bad. Funny to watch someone else have to play it, but I would never want to myself.
Smart move on Microsoft's part to remove the family sharing and trading options after their policy change. They could easily have kept those features without their 24 hour internet check in and used a stream-like system, but this way has people clamoring for them to bring it back.
@Verenti Yeah, Total Biscuit tried something similar on his channel with Total Digestive and it was not very successful. My guess is viewers who watch this show most likely watch all of it.
