The intentional obfuscation of the broken condition of the game as well as the super shady refusal to let console reviews take place are the things that indicate a poorly run and fraudulent company, to me.  They might as well be Todd Howard, with the sheer number of lies...,(reply>), @Siana Gearz Yeah, but...  A lot of people bought on console when they should have hesitated and then were surprised it was not ready for prime time.  The company should not have put it for sale, but... buying then was impatience and wishful thinking.  (I'm probably still not saying that right.),(reply>), @Michael Beemer I absolutely DID take it as a red flag personally, that the game at the very least barely crawls along and was probably gonna be flakier than Watch_Dogs Legion. But i also didn't expect quite so many aspects of game design to remain so unrefined, so the state of the game still caught me off guard.,(reply>), Yeah. Blame for gross mismanagement does tend to belong to pathological liars and bullshit peddlers.,(reply>), 343i is and does the same thing,(reply>), What surprises me is that people did not seem to take the refusal to release code for console reviews as a red flag.
