View Steam Achievements Interactive, who are willfully sidelining a serious problem with their game, simply to pump out further billable content, is an unfortunate realization of the initial concern. Bugs are an irritating, albeit normal, part of the development process and most gamers would likely have no problem accepting a random game freeze once in a while but the studio's unwillingness to address actual game-breaking problems in favor of new content is significantly harder to swallow.

Had the publisher said they were hard at work on a patch for any progression bugs but would be abandoning minor glitches to polish up the story DLC, most customers would have likely been more understanding. Of course, this isn't the first time this week that Warner Bros. Interactive has failed to make good on a promise to consumers - having cancelled their Arkham Origins season pass offering on the Wii U including the aforementioned story-based DLC.

No doubt, some of those gamers might have purchased the title on a different console, had they known that the developer would simply abandon development if demand was lower than expected. With so many players locked out of further story progress, not to mention Wii U owners that have been shut out of the title's multiplayer and post-release DLC, Warner Bros.

That said, it's hard to imagine that the publisher will change its mind and invest a lot of manpower in fixing all Arkham Origins glitches - but we'll keep our fingers crossed that they " do move forward with creating a new patch " and, at the very least, deliver a stable version of the title free of game-breaking progression bugs.
