    Rome 2's relaunching on the Mac seems to be upsetting some misinformed PC gamers

    So there's a few PC gamers on the Rome 2 Steam forum who seem to think they have somehow been denied more content because the game is being re-launched on the Mac. They [ludicrously) think that Creative Assemblly could have done more DLC for Rome 2 instead of doing this. With Feral doing the job...
