One, you're putting key responses, information, and media behind a pay wall. That is a cheap baiting tactic. Two is the ridiculous, irrelevant Candy Crush game to unlock the Cloud storage and the constant ads. It breaks immersion, and it pulls me completely out of the story.

BUT....here's the deal...I purchased the \"multimedia pack\" because it's recommended for a more immersive experience, and while I do agree, I wish that I didn't purchase it because the MINIGAMES you must complete to progress further in the game are insufferable. At first they were fun and easy and then they get way too hard and there's no way to skip them.
