Wow. I always assumed that profiling would be part of the pre-release test processes for AAA games...

More importantly how do you release a game that takes 6 minutes to load? This is why mobile gaming has the advantage. In those 6 minutes I could have played a round of a game that’s quite satisfying and put it down already. This just seems sloppy.

It was only one minute at first. As the game had content added, it got longer and longer and nobody cared.
