|Ford
|Front-trunk access is now a paid extra for the Ford Mach-E (aka, the electric "mustang").  I could comment about it not being a real mustang, because they turned a two-door muscle-car into a four-door crossover that looks like a rav-4... But that's probably entirely subjective in comparison to ford making the front trunk an optional upgrade, and burying that option amongst others like wheel locks and bumper cover protectors.
My source is youtube.  If I had a better source, I'd probably just add this to the Ford Page, but this needs more research.

|Pearl Abyss
|Crimson Desert engaged in hardware gatekeeping by purposely locking out support for Intel GPUs. Their response when people asked what was going on was, “Get a refund.” They failed to mention in their hardware requirements that Intel GPUs were not supported. Intel also reached out to Pearl Abyss over the course of Crimson Desert’s development to offer support but was ignored. Pearl Abyss has now backpedaled after public backlash and says they will offer Intel GPU support.
