if your game has a load time counted in minutes on an NVMe SSD it shouldn't be permissible to have a "press start to begin" screen that blocks further loading before the main damn menu

in reply to @ticky's post:
NFS unbound loading time is beyond absurd, i had trouble believing it. also it's entire menu interface & settings are so incredibly buggy & and unintuitive & lacking. great gameplay, horrible piece of software to interact with.
I feel like I could be more lenient if it actually rendered something other than a black screen while it does the initial, pre-logo movie, loading, but no, successfully loading is indistinguishable from the state where the game simply isn't going to load at all and you have to restart the EA App
